First Butterfly Swords giveaway!

Posted on by

So far, newsletter subscribers have received insider info, sneak peeks at the book trailer, and advance news about new stories and sales. This week, they’ll be eligible for my first giveaway:

My agent Gail called me yesterday and gushed that she was holding a copy of Butterfly Swords in her hands and that it was gorgeous! She wanted to warn me so I didn’t run into  the wall or burst into tears or kiss the mailman when I saw them. I’m waiting eagerly…

So I’m giving away my very first copy of Butterfly Swords this weekend! The entry link is only in the newsletter, so join up and enter with the correct passphrase for a chance to win.

Brenda Novak Auction for Diabetes

Posted on by

brenda_novak_basketThis is a wonderful example of the sense of community and charity among writers and readers. New York Times bestselling author Brenda Novak started this auction to raise money for diabetes research after her child was diagnosed with diabetes. This year, her goal is to raise one million dollars.

The Ruby-Slippered Sisterhood is donating a basket of gift items. It includes regional specialties from all over the world – Alaska and Australia are represented in there. Also several books and 3 partial critiques. I’m including a Gooey Louie butter cake from St. Louis as well as a critique and a butterfly swords souvenir charm. All the other sisters have pitched in as well. The pile of giveaway items is growing in my basement. It feels like Christmas!

But tempted as I am, I know these goodies are meant for a generous bidder and not for me. Follow the link to our basket — and then you can browse the other items as well. I’m watching several already and can’t wait to bid! I’m eyeing some promotion packages (because I have to get ready for that) as well as a deep edit from Margie Lawson, lunch with Jamie Ford, and a trip to London for two.  Wish me luck!

Bidding on the Ruby-Slippered Sisterhood gift basket opens on May 1st. Some other items will open tonight.
