Okay So This Is What I've Done

I know that I am doing Xmas/ Hanukkah stories and posts on my blog for the whole month of December. I and I still plan on doing that. I have also signed up for a Christmas Blog Hop. I am not sure whether I am one of the successful applicants  as I think Drea is capping off the blogger list at 150 entrants this time. Which I can understand. If I am successful then the blog runs from 14th -17th and I figure I can still blog and pimps peoples Xmas/ Hanukkah works.

Just A Quickie

Okay just so I don't end up a slacker like some people - **coughs into hand** (yes I do mean you Embry). I thought I would let you know what is happening in my life... Even though we loved being at GRL this year  in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Emily and I will have to miss the gang when they hit Atlanta in 2013... but we will be there for the next one for sure.

After I finish this project I am working on for my wonderful MLR editor Kimberly Brandt... I am going to be concentrating on the following projects:

The Lines of Marsden: Living in Shadows
(Follows Rules are Meant to be Broken)

Toowoomba Boys: Dancing with Demons
(Follows Hunting for Clay)

Lancaster's way: A Different Way of Seeing
(Follows When Souls Collide)

Mixed Tape: I Should Have Known Better
(one off)

If there is anything I should be working on that you can remember and I have forgotten feel free to let me know and I will make sure it is added to the list.

Here are a couple of places to see some more reviews for One Last Kiss Goodbye... some are good and some are so-so, but I will leave it up to you guys to see whether you like the story or not - because I may be a tad bias in my opinion.

December Promo Scavenger Hunt With Free Holiday Story Book Give Away and Sitewide Discount Code Scramble

Happy holidays! Silver Publishing wants to give our fans more than 60 chances to win either a free Holiday Story from our 25 Days of Christmas Releases or for a lucky random five 20% off codes! And if you are really dedicated there is a Word Scramble included that will provide a discount for titles purchased during the last week of December!

To make it even more exciting, the authors participating may offer new and interesting content or contests of their own to help distract from the frantic pace of the holidays.

So, how does it work?

In a nutshell: Find all the snowflakes every day, email us at promotions@spsilverpublishing.com with the author name/date for each snowflake you find, check our blog daily to see if you won and then use the pertinent snowflakes to spell out an additional discount code to use at the end of the month.

Not in a nutshell: Participants go to the following blogs every day in December and find the hidden snowflakes. There will be at least two, sometimes three snowflakes to be found among the list of facebook/blogs/websites below for our authors. The snowflake will look like a variation of this:

Find them all for the maximum amount of chances to win.

Once you find the snowflake, note the letter, number or character as well as the numerical indicator (if present) on the snowflake for the scramble. The numbered snowflakes will line up to spell out your discount code.

Email us at promotions@silverpublishing.com with the name of the blog/website where the snowflakes were hidden on that date.

Important email format: Please put only the name of one author and the date in your subject line - for maximum chances to win, each snowflake/author found should be its own email for an increased daily chance to win.

If your email subject line includes the correct answer you will be entered into a random drawing to win the Christmas Release for the day you found the snowflake. There will be at least 2 winners per day; five days there will be 3 winners.

Winners will be notified in our new BLOG here: http://bit.ly/Wi7uyq = (bookmark this link so that you can check back each day.) If you are the winner for that day, email us with your email address and format desired to promotions@silverpublishing.com so that we can get your prize to you quickly.

Helpful hints: Some authors will have more than one snowflake during the event. But authors will only post one snowflake per day so search them all every day. Don’t leave any out for maximum chances to win.

Once you have found all the snowflakes, line up the letters, characters and numbers based on the numerical indicator (when present) to spell out our Holiday message and receive a discount code that will be active from Dec 25 – 31st.

Not every participating author has a Holiday release but you’ll want to collect the snowflake on their site for another chance to win the story being released that day. And…they might have one of the five valuable discount snowflakes we’ve hidden with your chance to win that day.

If the authors are running additional contests, take advantage for additional ways to win throughout the month.

Here is your list and GOOD LUCK!

I'm Back! Did You Miss Me?

So I thought I should let you know for the last three days I wasn't ignoring you all or my blog - here in my part of Australia we have been having super storm cells and rolling blackouts - thankfully nothing as bad as hit New York...

Today I have been catching up on the gazillion emails waiting for me and then I started on the final galley edits of A Moon-Runner Christmas... I think now it is ready to be set aside for sale.

What else has happened - I did manage to go and watch the last Twilight saga movie Breaking Dawn Part Two - lets just say I should not swear in the theatre when it goes dead silent because apparently I am very loud. I bet a few of you who have already seen the movie know exactly which part I am referring to.

Tomorrow I have to finally get caught up in the work I need to get done for Kimberly - as you all know she is my wonderful MLR Editor... I need to try and get finished Sons of Evenmore: The Crimson Grimoire.

Updates On Me...LOL.

Yes, I still have my bloody  headache and it is driving me completely nuts. But I will get through it eventually with the help of my trusty friends Codeine & Panadol. Okay give me a good twenty minutes for them both to kick in so I can write and it actually makes sense.

I have made it to halfway through my effort for NaNoWriMo - Taking Chances: Lie to Me and reached the 25K mark but I will have to admit defeat and say I don't think I will make the whole 50K this year as I still have so much to do on other projects.

I also finally managed to reach 15K on my Warrior Vamps - Sons of Evenmore: The Crimson Grimoire and still have a further 10 K to write before it is complete. So everyone keep everything crossed that I make it in on time.

On other more exciting news - I have 1 WEEK until Em and I go and see Nickelback and I can get myself a new t-shirt. 3 years is a long time between shows. Now if the Americans could just send me over Theory of a Deadman, Chris Daughtry, Black Veil Brides, Sick Puppies, Linkin Park (and actually do a concert in QLD) then I will e a very happy girl - I think our next concert will be Green Day if we manage to get tickets.

I got the mock up of my cover from MLR for Christmastime at Papa Lee's... as soon as I get the final copy I will put it on display for you right here n this blog  - Lucky it's mine
