Stories About Life on the Farm: Raising Kids and Writing Novels
Included in this box set collection:

1. Chickens in Canaan Land
2. The Farm on Naked Creek
3. Beef Below the Blue Ridge



Hey, Everyone! I'm Jessie Gussman and I write love stories.

I guess some people think that a writer's life is glamorous. Especially a romance writer.

This book was written to disabuse that notion.

I'm kidding. That's not the purpose of this book, although it's a definite effect.

It's true that I'm a USA Today bestselling author, which, I have to admit, surprises me as much as anyone.

My husband and I also own a trucking company. We have two twenty thousand bird free-range laying houses (our eggs are probably in your grocery store!), raise grass-fed beef cattle, homeschool our kids and are on a first-name basis with the Game Warden and the state police (mostly because of the kids and not really my husband).

I frequently cook for strangers, occasionally hide from my family and own more fire extinguishers than the average person (for good reason).

Sometimes, when I sit down at my computer, instead of writing the next chapter in my latest romance, I write about my life.

Sometimes it's fun. Sometimes funny. Sometimes it's heartbreaking and sometimes you just see life through the eyes of a farmer, growing older every day and maybe just a little wiser.

We do a lot of laughing, some crying and every day is a learning experience wrapped in the love of God and held in His hand.
That's what I share with you in this book.

Thanks so much for spending some time with me today!

Love,

Jessie

An absolute treat." - Janalyn

★★★★★ "I've been reading this book to my husband whenever we're riding in his truck together. We're both loving it! Many laugh out loud moments!" - Amber

★★★★★ "This is a faith-based writing that is so touching that it not only will inspire the reader but entertain you in a clean and wholesome way. Jessie's real-life stories about her family and life on their farm made my day! This really is a must-read charmer!" - Crystal

★★★★★ "This book had me laughing out loud, crying, and wondering how in the world people can live with themselves sometimes. I truly don't know when Jessie finds time in her life to write, but when she does, it's an experience. I love Jessie's honesty, spirit, love, generosity, human-ness, kindness, parenting style, relationship with God." - Janet

About the Author

USA Today best-selling author Jessie Gussman writes sweet and inspirational romance from her farm in central Virginia. Having attended, but never graduating from the school of hard knocks, Jessie uses real life on the farm to inspire her cowboy, rural and blue-collar fiction.

When she’s not chasing kids, cows and the occasional roll-away haybale, Jessie enjoys wading in Naked Creek and not cleaning her house. Most of the time her main goal is to keep from catching herself on fire…again.

If you enjoy fun stories with vivid characters showcasing strong families with a ribbon of faith tying everything together, you might enjoy Jessie’s books.
