My dad says I should blame it all on Vanna. It’s her fault I’ve been away so long! I love the way that sounds. But first thing’s first . . . we need MUSICA to go with our Fairy Tale.
Don’t be mad at us ~ we come bearing gifts . . . I’m sorry I’ve been away so long. I hope I didn’t worry you, I missed you just as much as you missed me! Everyone is happy and healthy around here and keeping out of trouble the best we can. You can see we are surrounded with mini-miracles, Girl and Jack in the same photo!! Yesterday! (Look at his cute folded paws!)
‘Course the whole world is a miracle now that the lilacs are in bloom . . . this is my view out the window from my art table.
Here’s up close and personal, a bee’s-eye view.
Here’s the sky view, lilacs are everywhere on the Island right now ~ it smells wonderful outside!
So here’s more of what’s been happening around here. Besides the fact that we have two new baby squirrels coming to the feeders ~ who won’t hold still for six seconds so I can take their picture, but they are adorable! The tiniest ears in the world.
Our tulips and daffodils bloomed, so perky after that cold winter. You have to call that a miracle!
And then there’s this . . . our ornamental pear tree. I’m very big on spring flowers, I like the shock of it! This does it for me!
We still have a few of these Angelique tulips in bloom . . .
My birthday was perfection, thank you all so much for your well wishes! My dad and his wife Jeanie sent me this darling birdhouse!
And the dogwood did its part by blooming soon after . . .
Heres another photo of the dogwood . . .
When Joe was digging the hole to plant the dogwood, he found that little blue bottle in it. I celebrate that little bottle all the time. Buried treasure! Kind of a fairy tale, don’t you think?
Here’s another picture of the pear . . . I can’t get enough of it. I could live there.
Here it is again, showing off with the weeping cherry and forsythia . . .
And more forsythia, not to be outdone . . .
When we bought this house in 1989, there was a wonderful magnolia in the garden that bloomed every year and made the perfect spring picture for all passers by. In fact, long before I bought this house, I used to drive past it in the spring, just to see all the wonderful flowering trees in bloom. The woman who owned the house before me, Mrs. Bowditch, was a garden lover.
This was her tree, and the legacy she left for us. But one day, this beautiful 
tree up and died, and I’ve mourned it ever since. I know Mrs. Bowditch was looking down from heaven saying, “Susan, Put it back. It’s your job.” It took three years to find the right kind here on the island to replace it with. I wanted the exact same variety. But they didn’t seem to carry it in our nurseries ~ only other varieties, with different flowers. In addition, I find it hard to trust the name tags on the trees, I trust them more if there is a flower I can see.
There was exactly one flower on this one when we found it last year at Vineyard Gardens, but it looked like the right kind!!! So excited, we took a chance and brought it home.
And prayed that it wasn’t some sort of trick. I waited for it to bloom this year, and we got lucky, because it was the right kind! It still has a way to go before it reaches the glory of the original tree, but I am so happy to have this view back! A pure pleasure. Happy Mother’s Day, Mrs. Bowditch.♥ Thank you for the inspiration!
And here we are in the way back . . . enjoying more . . .
Oh yes, we’ve been celebrating by walking through the woods out to the pond and the ocean every day . . .
The leaves are back! We watch seagulls, terns, finches and osprey flit, dive and prey and we do “Morning Science” which always starts with the words, “I wonder why” . . . Big breaths of this air soothes the winter soul. A blessing.
Speaking of blessings, here’s one of the things I missed ~ well, I missed sharing it with you ~ was Princess Charlotte’s Birth Day! Weren’t you thrilled they had a girl? How perfect! And isn’t Kate’s dress adorable?
William and Kate must wake up and pinch themselves every day! Now Kate can shop for baby dresses! Of course we non-royalty types celebrate in our own way, by drinking tea from our new Emma mugs! Not a bad way to go! Too cute! I hope everyone got one . . . Kellee announced their arrival on Facebook . . . I know they’ll sell out from Emma soon, if not already. They always have a limited supply of these special event mugs which is the good news and the bad news!
Another thing I missed with you was . . .
So, Happy Mother’s Day to all of my soul-nurturing Girlfriends. The world wouldn’t be fit to live in 
without you! You are kind of IT. ♥ I just saw a wonderful movie that I think would make the perfect Mother’s Day gift for you. It’s not new, it came out in 2011, so it’s available on Netflix and all kinds of places, even on YouTube. I know you’ll love it. It’s called The Well Digger’s Daughter. It’s French, you have to read subtitles, but it’s easy to get used to and the cinematography is heaven with lovely views of the French countryside. I loved the musica too. And the dad in this movie is wonderful too. Also, the clothes on his five daughters! It’s set just as WWI is beginning. So happy Belated Mother’s Day dearest ones!♥
So where have I been? What is my pitiful excuse? You aren’t buying the Vanna excuse? I didn’t think so.
I’ve been doing this ↑. I’ve been writing our book. I made you a promise to try to have it before Christmas do I decided to put my shoulder into it and make it actually happen. The Musica for today was a hint. I’ve been playing it for inspiration and strength. I think anyone who must march to a finish line would be helped by playing this music.
And this is where I am now. Deep into my watercolors, making new art for our new book, which finally has a name. You’ll be the first to know . . . ready? I’m scared . . . OK, here we go . . .
Here’s the first time I wrote it . . . trying it on for size . . . to be or not to be, that is was the question.
And I liked it! So here’s where I got serious.
And here’s where I started to mean business.
And here’s where there’s no turning back. Yesterday, Kellee posted THE FAIRY TALE GIRL in the web store for presale (everytime I type presale, my auto fix changes it to “resale” and now it’s 
changing autofix to “outfox.” Stop helping me outfox!)
Anyway, this is the book I’ve been trying to write since about 2006 and would not have been happy in life if I didn’t. I had to, even though it’s a completely new thing for me and I had to practice by writing A FINE ROMANCE first. Which was not only fun, but very helpful as far as learning is concerned.
THE FAIRY TALE GIRL began as just one book, but when I added the art and photos and recipes, it was too big, so I had to make it two books ~ The Fairy Tale Girl comes complete with a cliff hanger ~ so very soon we’ll also have the sequel called MARTHA’S VINEYARD, ISLE of DREAMS. And guess what else? They are novels! Based on my diaries.
I know, but it’s true. And this isn’t even all of them! So, of course I’m scared to death! But counting on the fact that
I’m plowing forward despite trepidation. I think you will like it, it’s sort of like the blog only more and longer. For the next month, before it goes to print, I will be digging through old
photographs like this one, laying out my pages in the book with them so you can see what I’m writing about ~ and painting the art so you can go on a little virtual journey with me back to the 1900s. What do you think? A novel with pictures!
For those of you interested in preordering The Fairy Tale Girl, yours will be signed copies and shipped to you first before anyone else ~ as soon after August 15th as possible, on a first-come first-serve basis (because we really never know how many to print of these things). The actual “Publication Date,” when you should be able to find it in stores, is October. That’s so we have time to send books to reviewers.
And now, because I’ve been away so long, and because that was bad, I want to make it up to you by GIVING AWAY the first ten copies of 
THE FAIRY TALE GIRL to ten of YOU! So leave a comment and we’ll have a drawing, and wear poor Vanna out with all the work to choose ten winners! It’s good for her! They’ll ship out the moment they arrive. And BTW, if my Blog is delivered your email address, you need to come here to www.162.240.10.175/~susanbs3/susanbranch/ in order to leave a comment ~ at the very bottom of this post, where you see a row of tiny words, look for “comment,” click there, and voila, leave a comment, and you’ll be entered.
for your support ~ love you Girls.♥ Everyday I’ve thought the same thing as I’ve been writing, “What would the Girlfriends like me to tell them about?” This time it’s a fairy tale, complete with a Prince Charming, a bite of poison apple, and lessons learned! We all have a bit of that fairy tale in us, right? ~ but I’m not telling anymore! Until maybe next time. Previews are only fair. ♥
Have a wonderful day! XOXO
Susan!! I’ve been missing you this Spring! So glad to hear from you and that you are well,happy and surrounded by soo much beauty!! I can’t wait to read the new books! Love the photo of the kitties together! I have a Jack too! Ah! LOVE! xoxo Sara
I’m so excited for your novels, a change from your other books but it must be exciting for you. Was it difficult writing a novel compared to your others books or did it just happen organically? Did you know from the start you wanted it to be a novel? I have difficulty conveying what I really mean to say in writing (without running on and on and on……) so I admire how your writing sounds just like you without being overly wordy. Can’t wait!!!!!!
I am so happy to share a Monday morning with you again! It makes the start of my work week sooo much better. Like a cat with cream in her whiskers, I look forward to your new book…books. Can’t wait!
So glad to read your post this morning! I kept checking every day, but knew you were busy on the book. My daughter gave me the dvds of “Downton Abbey” for Mother’s Day! I’m so excited to get all caught up and then “keep up” when you, and others, comment on it. Our big news is about all the rain we’ve been getting in Texas! A little over 9 inches this month where we live. That may not sound like a lot to you but here it is major! Stock tanks are full and lakes are filling up. Many prayers have been answered! Can’t wait for the new book, it sounds wonderful! Glad to have you back!
I admire your gumption so much — writing a novel — amazing You! Can’t wait to see it!
❤️❤️❤️
i have so missed your sweet blog with all its lovely photos, especially of the lilacs, what variety is it that grows so well for you?
Welcome Back! Although you weren’t really gone, just indisposed. I’m so happy you were able to complete the book. Doesn’t it feel good? I love it when things are completed and turn out right and just in time to enjoy the blooms.
Oh Susan, you never cease to amaze, delight, and entertain!
Congratulations on the launch of another “Mahvelous” book!
I cannot wait!
I think your cover looks dreamy and beautiful! I’m a cat lover and love all your photos of Jack and Girl Kitty. Thanks for sharing them!
Oh yea! You’re back. Spring on the East Coast looks bee u ti ful. And we got rain in L.A. Amazing to feel it again. So looking forward to your new book baby. It looks to be just wonderful.
Hi Susan,
My friend Joyce sent me a message this morning that your book link was up and I came right over. I am so excited to read your next book. I gave everyone in my family, and friends and a copy of A Fine Romance. Even a shopkeeper who is moving to England was given a copy.
A bit of wonderfulness that the world can use right now. Your writings and artwork are like the grand music from the 40’s (which I listen to daily). I just ordered my pre-order copy. Now I have a special book to anticipate in the mail, which will bring a smile to my heart.
Thank you for being you!
Karen
Thank you Karen!
Susan, you are amazing! I enjoy ” visiting” your home and it’s beauty through your blog. What a special gift you have ! With the difficult winter you had it’s nice you are now being rewarded with such a beautiful spring . I have gotten out the Summer book . I am planning a wonderful Memorial Day picnic, camp out, and bonfire with my family and our Basset hounds. I also enjoy taking the Summer Book to school and sharing your stories with my second graders. They are in awe of the wonderful summer experiences you share in the book! I look forward to your next books!
Love to you and your second graders Julie — Happy Memorial Day!
Susan, it has been such fun witnessing your progression on this book! I know it’ll be GREAT! It would also be nice if I’m one of the lucky ten winners!! 😉 Thanks so much for your generous time and continuous inspiration.
Susan,
So happy to see a new post! Really enjoyed seeing all your Spring flowers. Lilacs were my Grandma’s favorite and I have two bushes from her to enjoy every Spring when they bloom. Knew you had been hard at work on your new book, or should I say, BOOKS! Congrats!! How EXCITING – and a TITLE!! Can’t wait! We MISSED YOU!
Jan
So glad to here from you once again. You have lovely spring pictures. Love the lilacs. Love, love the white dress in the picture of the cover of the new book. I want one. So pretty. glad you are near the end of your new book. Now time for some summer fun. It’s been a long winter. My birthday is the 21st of May. We are lucky to be May babys. Ahhh Spring! Take care Hi to Joe and kitty’s.
Susan, so glad to hear you, and your family are all well!
Missed you!
Whew! Glad you’re OK, Susan, was actually getting worried. I have to add my comment-I bought your “A Fine Romance” and actually giggled with delight when I saw everything was hand-lettered! It was a joy to read and to immerse myself in such a happy, adventurous life. You have a new avid fan, thank you for your inspiration-it is needed and appreciated.
Thank you back Clare!
Missed you… I was elated to read your new post. Your descriptive writings take me away to a place filled with beauty. Thank you. Looking forward to your new book.
I would truly love to have a copy of the book. I look forward to October.
You are certainly a Fairy Tale Girl!
I can’t wait to read your sweet book. You have my support! Love you, Susan!
I missed you and so happy to have you back! You’re posts always brighten my days. Can’t wait for your new book, which I’ve already ordered, yippie. Happy painting:-)
Susan,
Welcome Back!!! We’ve missed you…Glad all is well and spring has sprung gloriously on the Vineyard!!!
This is so, so exciting and thanks for this fabulous opportunity!
The book will be another masterpiece I will certainly add to my collection!
Blessings and love,
Jeanette
SO excited for the book. This post made my Monday!
Dear Sue,
How wonderful to hear from you again! You have been so busy, we had no idea all that you were doing. I am eagerly waiting for your new books, they look marvelous! We can all enjoy a new fairy tale.
I gave “A Fine Romance” to my daughter-in-law for her birthday, she was delighted. Thanks for the joy you bring into our lives.
It would be a Fairy Tale to recieve this …
I’m looking forward to the new book(s)! I recently found Vineyard Seasons at a local thrift store, for thirty cents! I always scour thrift and used book stores for your out of print books, and a light shined upon me that day! I’ll do a pre-order for the upcoming new books so I can avoid such lengthy treasure hunts in the future! Looking forward to reading The Fairy Tale Girl!
I love fairy tales and I would LOVE to win your book! Thank you for the opportunity!
We could all use a lovely fairy tale in our lives! And your lilac photos bring me straight back to childhood … our yard would be scented with glorious lilacs, always signaling to us that summer was fast approaching.
Susan — Glad you are back! I needed my fix of your wonderfulness! Thanks for the feeding of the heart and soul.
Happy to be here Debbie, thank you!
Happy Spring! Happy Mother’s Day! Happy new book! We’ve missed you! I’m looking forward to your new books. I need a good read so pick me! 🙂
Glad to see you back Susan! Looking forward to your book, either bought or who knows…..won….! Succes with the last months of work to it.
Petra from the Netherlands.
I just wonder how you do that; pick a winner? I can see with names on paper you through them all in something and pick one. But with emails???
Petra
There is something called a “random number generator” that came with this blog. I’ve named it Vanna, and she has become a friend of ours here, but that’s how it’s done from a more scientific point of view.
You NEED her help with almost 2000 comments/names from which to pick! Hugs ~ Donna W.
Oh, please, please, pleeeeease, include me!
YIPPEE! Happy heart dancing in Colorado! So excited to add
another book of yours, to my expanding collection.
Plus…you just simplified my gift giving for birthdays and
Christmas! You darling you.♡
Thank you for the joy you bring to all of us.
Finally…. I was so worried, but it was well worth the wait. I think this is the most beautiful post yet! So glad everything is fine. Can’t wait for the book to come out. I am preordering it…. Have two cookbooks “Fall and Summer”…. and “A Fine Romance” ! Of course cannot wait to read newest one… and of course see the heads on those two gorgeous people. Love that outfit on that girl. My daughter would love that dress! Those spring flowers make you want to kick up your heels like a newborn lamb in a New England countryside! Just magnificent Susan! Love your post!
Judy Ann from Georgia
Susan….Anyone who writes knows there has to be time and space to do so. You don’t need to apologize for not getting to your blog. Looking forward to your new book. Anything you do is special and unique. Wishing you and Joe a wonderful summer…which will be here soon. I can feel it in the air.
Glad that all is well with you and your family. Can’t wait to read your book!
I am so glad to hear you are doing well and I couldn’t be more excited about the new books. I can’t wait to read both of them! Thanks for the opportunity to win a copy. That is fantastic.
Thanks and take care! : )
So excited about your new book. I’ve always loved fairy tales, so this will be a treat! Spring is my favorite season ~ love all the spring flowers you have. Really beautiful. Martha’s Vineyard is one of my bucket list stops, but don’t know if it will ever happen. I get to see it vicariously through your blog ~ thank you. Kudos to you for a project accomplished ~ always a good feeling. Can’t wait for it to be available. Blessings.
Oh how exciting! I can’t wait to read it. You’re such an inspiration. Please enter me in the contest. Thank you so much!
I absolutely cannot wait to get my copy and love the name you picked!!!
Susan, welcome back! You were missed but you have certainly accomplished something wonderful for all of us to enjoy!!! Thanks for sending us a breath of Spring from Martha’s Vineyard! We are having a very wet spring here in Texas. I have a Martha’s Vineyard coaster at my desk. A friend brought it to me after a trip there. A great reminder of the beautiful island you call home! I am re-reading A Fine Romance, and have enjoyed it just as much as the first time!! I am looking forward to “The Fairy Tale Girl”. I hope this Texas girl is lucky enough to win a copy! Thanks for a bright spot in my day!
I would check every now and then to see if you had a new post. Glad to see all is well and please enter my name for you give a way! Thank you very much.
Ahhh this is so exciting!! I cannot wait to pick this up when it comes out. Thank you for all your hard work! 🙂
For some reason my post is not working. I’ll check back to see later on, but I either don’t get this part of the blog or something is not working! I said, I love the cover of your new book, the Fairy Tale one & told you what a great inspiration you have been to me over the years. Thank you!
Congratulations on a dream fulfilled! So glad we will all get to share in it!! Missed you so much but it’ll be worth it!
Ooohhhhhhhh this is so exciting!!! I can’t wait for this to be published!
I was just thinking of you and A Fine Romance. I happened upon a great children’s book called Virginia Wolf by Kyo Maclear and Isabelle Arsenailt, inspired by Virginia Woolf and her sister, Vanessa and with all sorts of clever little references to the art and stories and lives of these two sisters. Reading it made me think of your visit to Charleston.
I enjoyed A Fine Romance so much that I would love to win a copy of your new book. Thank you so much for having this giveaway.
This new post was definitely worth the wait!!! Springtime on the island…so beautiful!!! Love LOVE the pic of Girl and Jack…now that’s precious!!!!
Your new book looks fantastic!!!!! I love the title! As always thank you
for bringing JOY!!!! ♥ Cindy
How exciting! You’ve been so hard at work during your long, snowy winter! Looking forward to your new books!
Can’t wait to read The Fairy Tale Girl!
Maybe it’s working now! 🙂 I said, I love the cover of the new book! And you have been such an inspiration to me that reading the sayings on your calendar years ago, inspired me to write and put together two books of my own which were a hit on the NW Oregon coast. Well, I didn’t say it that way, but I think authors need to know these things, how much their creativity touches others. Your writings and art inspires and I thank you! ~
How wonderful & inspiring your new book sounds! And how cool that I see my name on a post-it note sticking out of one of your diaires! (I took it as a sign.) 🙂 I’m so happy and proud of you for being scared to death! Can’t wait to see and read it all! xoxo Love, Diane
Welcome back Susan! ( we knew you’d been busy!) So anxious to read the new books, and see all yur precious drawings- can’t wait!!!
I love the cover! Know we’ll love the contents, too!
Thank you for coming back to us! So missed your corner of Martha’s Vineyard. Can’t wait to read The Fairy Tale Girl and all who will follow her. Good Luck to ME !!!!
Oh my, Thank you!
I am very excited too because in June, I get to go to Martha’s Vineyard for the 1st time in my 58 years!!!!!
I will be in Cape Cod for the first annual Cape Cod Shell show, and I am exhibiting.
Pretty exciting stuff for a MN girl. I hope to catch a glimpse of all the lovely things I see on your blog. I hope you and Joe will make a visit to the shell show too. it will be fabulous.
I am so excited about your new book! Cannot wait!
Hi Susan,

My wife would love to win this, and my mother-in-law!
I missed your blog so much !! So happy your back and all is well. Im excited more than I can say to read your new book. A fine romance just blew me away, it was so wonderful. I read it several times and love to go back to it even just to look at a page or two. Happy Spring !

I love your website. I loved “A Fine Romance” and I KNOW I’m going to love “The Fairy Tale Girl” and sequel!
Relieved to learn that you’re o.k. and had been up to your writing/illustrating ‘thing’ & too busy to post blog! Nice that you are willing to share title of earlier published book ‘A Fine Romance’ with Candice Bergen!! (I believe you had title first!)
Happy Belated Birthday, Susan! Sounds like it was loverly! So excited about your debut novel.
The title is perfectly wonderful! I can’t wait to get my copy because the subject matter is just what I need to make me smile over and over again! Pick me Vanna, PICK ME! But it’s okay if you don’t because I will have already my copy. Either way – glorious anticipation!!

Willa

Can’t wait for the new books. Loved A Fine Romance and am looking forward to The Fairytale Girl—yeah! Sandra
So nice to visit with you again. You have been busy! Can’t wait for the new books.
Hi Susan, “lessons learned”…one of my favorite phrases when I am discussing life issues with my 25 Yr old daughter! Congratulations on the book!
“Patience is a virtue.” This delightful Spring blog was worth the wait. I love the book title. What a great surprise that the book is a novel. I can’t wait for “A Fairy Tale Girl” and hope you will be at book signings to celebrate publication. Enjoy this beautiful season.
I am looking forward to reading your new books, Susan. Thank you for your inspiring example of passionate persistence!
Yeah I’m glad your back was worried about you all. Fingers crossed for a book!
I’ve always been a sucker for fairy tales! It will be lovely to have your version all in one (or two?) books! Hope I win. And welcome back, was a little worried but I thought maybe it was the book keeping you busy! xoxo
I love your work and your outlook, Susan, and I find reading your work to be like taking a small vacation. I am looking forward to reading your new book. To win a copy would be icing on the cake! Thank you for your continuous generosity!
Looking forward to another delightful book!
I’m throwing my name in the hat! No worries, I’ll be buying the book anyway, randomly generated pick or not. 😉
So happy to have you back. “Looked for” you every few days. Your gardens are so beautiful. In Kentucky , our dogwoods,tulips and all the other first spring flowers are over, but we have the roses to look forward to.
Thank you for the book giveaway! I look forward to seeing your latest book – please enter my name for the giveaway.
Can’t wait to read your new book! I adored “A Fine Romance” so I know I’ll love this one too!
So excited for your book! And thanks for sharing your Spring with us. My lilacs in California bloomed over a month ago, LOL. Such a brief time they bloom here but so glorious. I can just about smell them again from your photos, thanks!
So happy to hear about your new book. I know it will be just wonderful. I received my first Susan Branch book’s the Christmas of 1992. One from my brother the other from my husband. They are each signed and dated from them with love. Looking forward to your new book – to add to my collection! Have a blessed day and happy spring.
Susan, the experience I get from seeing the world through your eyes and your words have made my life magical,and my everyday life a bit more like a fairy tale…your inspiration truly warms my heart, thanks for sharing your very soul with us, God has truly blessed us all! Connie
Hi Susan!
The name is perfect!! Why of course you are The Fairytale Girl!! I’m so excited for the new book…and the thought that there will be more to follow!! All good things to you!! You share so much good with us!! xoxo
Your book is perfectly timed. I could do with a fairy tale about now 🙂 Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with us. xox
