On hiatus

Due to circumstances beyond our control, Stone Gathering is taking a break until Spring 2023. We will not take new subscriptions until March 2023. We thank existing subscribers, vendors, and readers for their patience and strong support and we look forward to filling your mailbox with goodness again at that time. Please watch this space for occasional sales of complete sets, seasonal bundles, and back issues. Stay safe and strong and well. We’ll do the same. Kindest everything, Deborah.

Quintessential Fall Reading

Stone Gathering may be on haitus, but our Seasonal Reading Bundles are always available. And our Fall Reading Bundle is currently on sale for $24.99: that’s three lovely and lovingly curated collections of short literature to enjoy while the leaves fall, temperatures dip, and the beauty of the new season declares itself. Plenty to savor, ponder, share, and discuss. (Email danidufy at gmail to ask about our book club discount and guidelines.)

Purchase the Fall Reading Bundle here. (Free shipping applies ONLY to items shipped within the contiguous United States.)

Fall 2021!

At last! The Fall 2021 Stone Gathering is off the press, arrived safely, and will wend her way to subscribers and sellers next week. It’s a special one, for sure! Filled with compelling short pieces to ponder, treasure, share, or keep in your pocket. You won’t want to miss it!

We are, however, still having some technical difficulties over at the online store, where some or all items are showing up as “not available” for many customers, depending on the device they use. So, here are some quick “buy” links to our most popular items: subscriptions, gift subscriptions, and the current issue (Fall 2021). I hope these links serve you well until we get things fixed. Should you wish to purchase multiple items with combined shipping, or if there’s anything you need from the store that is not listed below, please give us a holler through the “Contact” bar above. We’ll make it work.

Please Note: The prices below apply to items shipped within the continental United States only. For shipping costs to Alaska, Hawaii, and for international shipping costs, kindly order via the email address in the contact bar above. Thank you.

As always, I am grateful for your patience and your strong support. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. More soon, Deborah
