The God-Wink by Rose Allen McCauley
I already wrote a blog about God winks so if you haven’t read it yet, you may want to read that one first at Inspired Prompt.com on April 23, 2019. They are having a March Madness drawing the middle of April.
In case you missed a Monday or Friday in March on their page, here’s a reminder of the authors who are giving away books and when their posts first ran so you can go and make a comment if you hurry:
- March 4th-Bonita McCoy
- March 8th-Gail Johnson

The reason I thought of that post about God-winks is that when I got online this morning to write my post, Julie Arduini had already posted a review of my book, so to me that was another God-wink.
A God-wink is something we could not have orchestrated ourselves but that God works out to encourage us!
I first heard the term from Squire Rushnell and his wife on a Christian cruise several years ago! Now that you have heard the term I hope you will remember and be looking for times that God encourages you through winking at you! But just like most winks, you have to be alert or you might miss it!
In fact, this whole book came about because of a God wink! An article I read in a secular magazine led to my proposal to Rebecca Germany at Barbour and the book was born!
Since Julie already told the blurb for the whole book, here’s the blurb for my story in The Canal Brides of the Erie Canal: As a child, Amanda Mack loved her life in Zoar, Ohio where she was born to Separatists. Now an adult, she starts to chafe at its many restrictions. After meeting riverboat captain Daniel Jeremiah, they both must make decisions about their futures.
Rose is happy for this to be her third collection for Barbour and her seventh published novella. She and her husband celebrated their 50th anniversary last May with their 3 children, their spouses, and five grandchildren. Since then they have added a sixth granddaughter with another due this summer, so they are very blessed indeed!
