Hi!
I live on a ranch in British Columbia, Canada. I have three grown children, five grandchildren, and one arriving any day. I LOVE my life, and when not helping with ranch work, I write or quilt. (Have several dozen short stories published and currently working on a novel set in the Canadian prairies in the 1920's.)
Looking forward to being here. |

Hi Bramblerose, from northeast Texas. Welcome to the Farm. I so like to hear a woman say she loves her life.
In what genre or genres do you write? I have published several personal stories and gardening articles. Written cozy mysteries for friends and my own pleasure.

I write in several genres, but mostly historical fiction. I also write cowboy poetry. I have an idea for a "hist myst" series, but I have to get the current novel out of my head first.
ETA ... I also have a very neglected blog about ranch life. |

I like cowboy poetry. For several years I attended a Cowboy Church and met several 'real-life' cowboys that wrote. Loved to hear them read their poems.

Hi, Bramblerose. Welcome from way down in Texas. It's good to have another writer join us. Sounds like we're sort of on the same path. My first book, middle-grade historical novel set in east Texas, will be released on the 26th, and I'm working on another one for older readers. Keep writing!

Bramblerrose, congrats on the publishing. Please let us know when the book is published so we can read it. I love to quilt too. Especially in the winter. BC is beautiful. Just loved it when we visited a few years ago. Welcome from Minnesota.

Hi Bramblerose, whereabouts is your ranch? I have friends who have a ranch just outside Williams Lake. I'm also a newbie and live on Vancouver Island. Do you know of other Farmgirls in BC?

Hi, Jilly!
The ranch is between Dawson Creek and Fort Saint John. I know of no other farmgirls in BC. My married son lives in Victoria, so I was in your neighbourhood in July when I went to visit him.
Thank you, everyone, for the encouragement for writing the novel... days to write are so few and far between... and I need an extra push to write on days when I can.

Welcome Bramblerose from another Canadian farmgirl (who presently lives in the USA close to the Canadian border). Great place to hang out! Lots of wonderful, talented and compassionate gals on this forum! Cheers!
