My guest today is Author Susan Page Davis who I think came up with a unique series idea. Here’s Susan:<\/p>\n

“The heroines of my Ladies\u2019 Shooting Club series are women who aren\u2019t particularly strong at the outset. They band together to protect themselves, their families, and their property. In numbers, they discover strength. They also find unsuspected grit within themselves and do things they never dreamed they could accomplish.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gertrude Dooley has lived a quiet existence with her brother for eight years, keeping house and helping him in his business. She would not consider herself a leader. But when trouble comes to their town, she puts her one special skill\u2014shooting\u2014to work and leads many other women to confidence and security.<\/span><\/p>\n

Libby Adams has been widowed for several years. She lives alone and runs her business well\u2014but sometimes she\u2019s afraid, and she doesn\u2019t like that. Learning to shoot her husband\u2019s pistol is a step toward overcoming that fear.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vashti Edwards wants to break away from her past as a saloon girl, but when she applies for a \u201cman\u2019s job,\u201d she\u2019s rebuffed and laughed at. But persistence and support from her circle of friends drives her to succeed. <\/span><\/p>\n

These three women and others in their town begin new chapters of their lives when they gain confidence and independence. This phase coincides with a season in their lives when they come under biblical teaching for the first time in years. They find that spiritual growth is more important than independence, and they that real confidence comes from trusting in God, not themselves.”<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now about the author in her own words:
<\/span><\/p>\n

“I’m a native of central Maine, and grew up on a small farm with a wonderful mom and dad, three sisters and a brother. Most of my books take place in small towns, many of them in Maine. <\/span><\/p>\n

My husband, Jim, and I moved to his birth state, Oregon, for a while after we were married, but decided to move back to Maine and be near my family. We’re so glad we did. It allowed our six children to grow up feeling close to their cousins and grandparents, and some of Jim’s family have even moved to Maine!<\/span><\/p>\n

Our children are all home-schooled. The two youngest are still learning at home. Jim recently retired from his vocation as an editor at a daily newspaper.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’ve always loved reading, history, and horses. These things come together in several of my historical book<\/span>. Please drop by <\/span><\/span>www.susanpagedavis.co<\/span>m <\/u><\/span><\/a>“<\/p>\n
