Thanks for entering! I loved reading all of your comments and finding out which Andi books you like best. Stay tuned for the Circle C and Goldtown SPRING writing contest. The calendar says June, but honestly, I think I would like to launch it earlier now that spring is just around the corner. Plus, a Virginia Foster character quiz is coming up next week and a fun Word Search. So, stay tuned!
I’m super excited to launch this double-whammy giveaway. Why? Reason 1) Andi’s blog has surpassed 200 followers and over 20,000 page views. Okay. Update. I counted the page views wrong. I forgot about the views from 2021, so that means I have over 72,000 page views (but there is still a “2” in that!) Reason 2) The release of the two new Milestones books, Yosemite at Last and Stranger in the Glade. So, we have a “2” in 200, a “2” in 72,000, and a “2” in two new books. The only thing that remain is to have two winners!
Enter the Giveaway = Two Winners!
It’s easy! Leave a comment about your favorite Andi book and include your first name. If you have never read a Circle C book, comment on how you found out about this giveaway. You do not need to leave your email in the comment so long as you include the email somewhere. (I think there is a box for it that says your email will not be published.) If you already follow Andi’s blog, I already have your email. I’m excited to share the two new books! If you don’t win, you can still buy the books! Giveaway runs March 11-17 and ends at 6pm Pacific Time. Winners (2) will be chosen in a random drawing using random.org. They will be notified and announced the next day, March 18. U.S. mailing addresses only, please.
Something Fun
These new books include Andi’s favorite recipes from over the years, from sugar cookies to peach pie and cobbler, to a chicken pie and even rattlesnake stew (you can use beef, LOL). Sourdough starter and sourdough pancakes and biscuits. Plus old-fashioned hot chocolate and lemonade. A delicious addition to these short-story collections. Stay tuned, as Mrs. M plans to share recipes and photos of some of the recipes because she has tried most (if not all) of them! (She shared the cobbler recipe on March 4.)
Sample the Books
You can read excerpts of both books on the Circle C website >>

I love all the Circle C books but my favorite has to be Heartbreak Trail. It was a very well written story that I felt I could relate to and made me cry almost as much as Last Ride. ~Chantae

I’ve been a fan since I was close to eight. It’s so hard to pick a favorite book, but I’d have to say I loved Thick as Thieves! I so enjoyed the plot! That being said, I’ve never read an Andi or Jem book I didn’t fall in love with!

Please continue to write books, I can’t really pick a favorite, there are just too many I love! If I must it would probably be Andrea Carter and the Dangerous Decision. I really like Tales from Memory Creek Ranch and More Tales from Memory Creek Ranch too!. Super excited to read the new books!

What are Tales from Memory Creek Ranch and More Tales from Memory Creek Ranch? Are they the same thing as Yosemite At Last and Stranger in the Glade?
LikeLike
They were the original short story books and are currently (and forever) out of print. Then my publisher, Kregel, asked to acquire those self-published books and I said yes. So I had to rewrite them, updating (and perfecting) the original stories . . . plus being willing to add new stories too (plus Andi’s favorite recipes). So they are very similar (the core stories, anyway) to the two new books, but the new ones are significantly expanded to 270 pages with new stories added. I hope that answers your question.
