It is still listed at Josephine Nobisso's publishing company, Gingerbread books, as an upcoming book: Please click her to see.

I can't wait to get my hands on a copy! Josephine Nobisso sent me our first copy of A Weight of a Mass in response to a letter I wrote to our local diocesan newspaper, and I have since met her in person. She is a beautiful woman and homeschooling mother. (Her only daughter was home educated all the way through high school.)

Alice,
She responded on my blog to a post about her, and we had a short, lovely exchange. She is so charming and gracious, and funny, too.

I, too, am looking so forward to her next book! I think you were probably the one who introduced me to her first book.

Yes, believe it or not, I remember introducing A Weight of a Mass to the Catholic homeschooling community through CCM almost the moment I received my copy in the mail! (Josephine Nobisso is a local Long Island author, and I'd met her at my parish.) Not that it wouldn't have been discovered on its own!!! It was too good to stay under wraps for long!

Wow. Here we are, two years later and it *looks* like we might see Take it to the Queen this year. Hope it was just busy-ness that prevented the book from being published earlier.

I have Show Don't Tell. It is Ok but kind of weird. I honestly won't spend the money on it, as it is expensive.
