Hi Laura, I am right now in the process of ordering my proof copies! So it should just be a few weeks, I hope. I’ll definitely post to my blog when the print copies are available. I would like to hear from you after you have read my book, with your feedback. All the best, Joanna

Do you know when the print version will be out? I haven’t been drawn to Kindle, etc., but I want to read your book.

Too late, I guess…I went to Amazon but they don’t have any for sale. I’m interested in reading your book. Yes, the name was a dead giveaway!

Hi Joanna -
This is more a general introductory comment than a reply about “Mennonites Don’t Dance”.
I’m Ron Thiesen, living in California in the Sierra near Yosemite. No doubt the last name has clued you to the fact that I am of Mennonite descent. I grew up near Reedley in Central California. I’m interested in contacting writers of Menno association; obviously you’re one. My book (on Amazon) is “Maverick Mennonite from Molotschna”.

Comment on What is the taste of amniotic fluid? by Ellen Kroeker

Joanna,
My uncle Jake Kroeker was an orderly in the same hospital. Because he was sought by the Reds in retribution for his father’s escape, he sometimes jumped in bed and pretended to be a dysfunctional patient when the soldiers appeared. At least that is one of the family stories.
According to him, he also worked with those who had canabalized others during the famine. I seem to remember that there was a separate ward for these patients.

Hi Cousin, Well I am thankful Aunt Sue cleared that up. I like the name Sparks. Stay in touch! And thanks for reading my blog.

I think you are right. You are a cousin to Joanna. Your grandfather(Henry) was a brother to my father (Jake), and a grandfather to JOanna. I am an aunt to Joanna and so that also makes us relatives but I can never figure out what that is. Good to hear from you.

That is a great story – one we’ve heard many times – you tell it so well!! And a great picture – but I’ve always wondered who was looking out the window?? Thanks Joanna -
