Jan Karon books
By Lynn, on May 4th, 2008
For those of you who love Jan Karon books , there’s a sweet little article about Jan Karon and her first and current writing offices in the May/June issue of Victoria .

I love Jan Karon’s writing and I’ve always been a fan of Victoria magazine (though I was disappointed when the magazine began to change in character in the early 2000s). I’m so happy Victoria is back to her old ways! Oh I’m just glad she’s back.
Jan Karon has a beautiful website, by the way: Mitford Books.
Wishing you a Beautiful Sunday,
Lynn

About Lynn
I am the mother of four delightful children: a 23-year-old son, a 20-year-old son, a 17-year-old son, and a bright and bubbly 13-year-old daughter. I share an apartment home with my 17-year-old son and 13-year-old daughter. My little home on the internet is called Rose Cottage because of my love for gardening, roses, and all things romantic and Victorian. Welcome.
I'm a North Carolina girl and I love sharing North Carolina links and information. I do medical transcription from home. My hobbies include making sweet little dolls from clay who are named and have their own stories to tell. I also make old-fashioned brooches. These are for sale in my Etsy shop.
For 13 years continuously, I homeschooled some or all of our four children, but the time came that our homeschool had to be closed. It was the end of a beautiful chapter in my life. I will always be a strong supporter of homeschooling and I will continue to review books and maintain my homeschool website, The Healthy Homeschool.

My Symphony
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884
What You Do Sow a thought, reap an action.
Sow an action, reap a habit.
Sow a habit, reap a character.
Sow a character, reap a destiny.

Jan Karon is one of my favorite authors. The Mitford books are so comforting! I will have to check out the Victoria magazine.
Hi, Amber! Isn’t Jan Karon totally inspiring with her wonderful books? Her own personal story is magical. I want to be a writer too when I grow up. And I will. She’s proof that you just don’t give up.
