I like how the lady in the tale is strong and capable. The love she finds is a sharing and endearing relationship. Hardships are met and overcome by working together.
I recommend to all that enjoy romance and history combined to show something beyond the ordinary. Link to The Viking and the Pictish Princess

Hi All,
I enjoy watching movies and TV Series based on books. I believe the characters have more depth and the plots more developed when books drive the creative process of screen play creations.
My featured YouTube Video series for COVID-19 2020 Summer is “Laura’s Prairie Summer”. It is free for a little while and I hope you take the time to check out the series from the banks of Plum Creek.
This series is is straight from Walnut Grove, Minnesota and features people from all over the US that have studied or read the Laura Ingalls Wilder Books and one interview in the series was from one of the actresses that started in the “Little House on the Prairie” TV Series. The play scenes include actors from the community.
Here are the links to the shows:
Laura’s Prairie Summer Episode 1
Laura’s Prairie Summer Episode 2
Laura’s Prairie Summer Episode 3
Laura’s Prairie Summer Episode 4
Laura’s Prairie Summer Episode 5
Laura’s Prairie Summer Episode 6
I hope I have all the links correct but if in doubt just search YouTube for Laura’s Prairie Summer and all the videos will come up for you.
It’s a well done series by local people in Western Minnesota in a small town where farming is the main source of income so anything you can contribute toward the efforts to keep the Laura Ingalls Wilder museum going along with the theater group will be appreciated.
The shows are for the whole family with new scenes included – every year the community puts on a pageant with an outdoor play that is very well done. Tune in and let the kids see entertainment for the whole family. Stay safe everyone.

Hi All,
The Annual Fall Into the Story Brunch was excellent food and conversations. I won the raffle to sit at the author table 2nd year in a row. This event gives you a longer time to share books you love to read and the styles we enjoy best. Everyone that attends get the chance to chat with Nora Roberts. It’s a special event that donates to proceeds to charity.
Check out this link to see what interests Nora Roberts, travel, gardening and writing its all there – Nora writes excellent non-fiction too on her blog. Nora Roberts Blog Fall Into the Story Managed by Laura

I hope to see everyone next year.
Sincerely,
Melissa Jane Blanchard
