Suzanne McMinn

Former romance writer turned intrepid farm girl Suzanne McMinn writes one of the most popular personal websites in the United States, sharing her photos, recipes, crafts, and laugh-out-loud adventures. Chickens in the Road chronicles her photography, (sometimes silly, sometimes serious) stories, recipes, crafts, and sentimental thoughts on the history, people, life, and beauty of rural Appalachia, experiences and lessons learned in farming, cooking, simple living, and cute barnyard animals. Readers call her courageous, inspiring, addicting, and most of all, fun.

Available now from HarperCollins -- "Chickens in the Road: An Adventure in Ordinary Splendor" ---the wild and juicy memoir of her life at Stringtown Rising Farm. (Cows, cookies, high water, and love!) Plus special sections with recipes, crafts, and photographs.
