Letter of introduction between two literary people connected to Mennonite literature, neither of whom I know well.

Subject: Rumspringa romance, or why is Mennonite Chick-Lit selling so well?

April 23, 2010

Hello Ms. Eby. Or is it better to address you as Blunder Woman? Hello
Professor Janzen.

We don't know each other, Ms. Eby, except through Twitter. And yes, I
did see your show at the GRAM.

You were mentioning, again on Twitter, that you are recording
Mennonite stories. I brought up this tidbit at Rhoda Janzen's reading
last night at Grand Haven's Bookman. They do fab readings there, so I
hope you open Blunder Woman there. She was fascinated, demanded
details, and I had none. So this is an so called introduction, at
least the best that can be accomplished in this new, virtual world.

I do notice that the two of you maintain Facebook pages,

Wishing you two the best in your writing and publishing,
