Authors having Fun: Do you recognize any of them?

October 9, 2014 By Cara Putman

Right now I’m enjoying a Fall cold, which means no voice and lots of coughing. Aren’t you so glad that we’re connecting through cyperspace and not in a coffee shop — though that would be so fun!

So today I wanted to share a couple fun videos that show you another side of some of your favorite Christian novelists. We had so much fun at ACFW making the first. My kids agreed that I shouldn’t try to do a solo piece — I need other people to play off. Can anyone else relate that the fun comes out when you’re with others.

I hope you enjoy these two parodies. We sure had fun making them. Can you spot any authors you recognize?

Enjoy!

    I was bummed that I missed the ACFW video!! I had to be somewhere else that evening, but it’s so much fun watching everyone who was able to be there! It’s also fun seeing everyone again! I’m still having writer friend withdrawal. 🙂 The second video was fun too!!

      It would have been fun to have you participate, Gabrielle. Too many places to be at once at ACFW!

      Rosie, not sure why it wasn’t loading earlier, but I changed a setting and am glad it’s working now. You’re right. We do have a lot of fun when we get together. Just wish it were more often 🙂

    Thank you for creating the videos! Seeing you (the authors) in videos really helps me connect to you as people. You are no longer just a name on a book cover or text on a blog page. I loved your collective sense of humor and playfulness. It makes me want to read your books (if I haven’t already)! Thanks, again, to everyone who participated in the videos.

    Thanks, Pat! I wish I could say it was my idea! The delightful Kristy Cambron created the first. It is a fun glimpse at who we are as people 🙂

    ACFW was GREAT!! I am always SO blessed from attending, and come home inspired (and exhausted, LOL). 😉
    Fun video you all did – – I recognized a few of those authors!
    I only got to see you once and speak – – in the ladies room! Of course, if I think about it, that is where a lot of social
    interaction happens. 😉
    Thanks for sharing this today, and praying that you’ll be all well SOON!

    I wish we could have spent more time together, Patti Jo. Maybe next year in Dallas! Thanks for the prayers. It’s hard to not have a voice.
