Connie, thank you for looking for the book in stores--I found out from my publisher that the first print run has already sold out! (Meaning it may be scarce on shelves right now, but the second print run should be out in about two weeks.) I don't think my publisher saw this coming--the quick sell out--because they weren't ready with the next run! Patricia--My first two books are both in large print. If you look on Amazon.com, you should see them listed, or click on "Other Editions" on the books' Amazon page. Thank you for your interest and I love to bless senior citizens. Only thing is, the large print edition is rather pricey. Ann, now I know one place to go if I visit Philadelphia! Sounds like fun--thanks. Thanks, Laurie, for signing up for my newsletter--if you enjoyed this post then I think you'll really enjoy the newsletter, even if you aren't the winner of a book this month! And Vickie--thanks for stopping by. Your book sounds really intriguing! Now hurry up and finish it so we can all read it! : ) Thanks again, ladies. And especially to PETTICOATS AND PISTOLS for hosting this fun giveaway! Joye, Connie, Patricia, Ann, Laurie and Vickie–thanks so much for reading and sharing a little bit of your own interests.

I loved the link to the old guns. This blog was especially interesting to me, because I'm writing a book later this fall called Dueling Hearts, and guess what it's about! Fascinating blog, Linore.

Honor, death, murder! Swordplay! I loved the movie The Count of Monte Cristo. Great revenge sword fight at the end. I really knew nothing about guns so this was informative.

We spent our vacation in Philadelphia last summer and spent a day at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, which has a huge collection of arms and armor. Linore's post gave me an excellent frame of reference for the beautifully decorated pistols and swords I saw there. Thank you! Great post, filled with useful information.

Will be showing that to my husband and son. We have many patrons who enjoy regency romances and read christian fiction. Will check out your books for our library. Will they be coming out in large print any time soon? I deliver books to seniors in nursing homes and at the senior apartments and many of them need large print. I look forward to checking out your books. Linore,
