Great post on Meredith's blog which is on the 12th carnival of homeschooling

Thanks Meredith! You said just what I needed to hear today, and very beautifully.

Wow! Thanks. . Here's the deal on unavailability of Real Learning. The second printing is complete but not yet shipped. I still have plenty of the first printing. You can mail me a check for $22.50 and I'll mail it out, autographed, Priority Mail. I'm working on setting up Paypal (well, really I'm not; MacBeth is ). The new books won't have the textured covers; the publisher didn't like them. The cover art is the same, it's just slick.

You can send your check to
Elizabeth Foss


ETA: MacBeth has enabled paypal at Real Learning so no need to mail checks.

Thank you Willa for your kind words the heads up for others, I had a little "pre-approval" on this one    

By the way Elizabeth, do you want me to change the amazon link to link here with your address??? I didn't want to make that public through my blog without asking what you'd like me to do. It would be so great for you to sell all of yours then you could start working on a REal Learning Volume 2!!! Hugs and kisses, you're the best!

I don't know what to do...we had a po box but the post office closed. I'm not thrilled about having my address out there. I'm so not a salesperson...

Never mind. MacBeth has paypal up and running at 4Reallearning.com. would you change the amazon link to that one? I'm going to delete my address above.

I wish I had asked earlier! I would have loved a copy autographed by the author. I've ordered from aquinas and more. Maybe I can get Real Learning 2 directly from the author?

I hope somebody buys it here because neither MacBeth nor I know how it works. We need a guinea pig and Paypal won't let me be it .So, let me know if you order and I'll let you know if I get it.

Maybe a little off topic here. I hope you don't mind. I sent a check in the mail, about two weeks ago, to an adress you had posted on another thread in this forum...

Otherwise, I'd gladly be your guinea pig!

We've had a couple of guinea pigs and it looks like the link works and the paypal option is up and running !
