Writing World: Upcoming News & GIVEAWAY

First thing's first. Next Tuesday (July 3rd) I'll be announcing the title and release date of Children of the Gods Book 2! Hoooray! I've been WAITING to tell you...so excited :)

In celebration of the news, I'm going to copy genius author/marketer/awesome-lady Susan Kaye Quinn and host a SHARE A BOOK Giveaway! Thanks Susan for this awesome idea, I hope you don't mind me using it :)

Here's how it works:

1. MY PART: I'll be giving away 3 copies of Oppression (Children of the Gods #1)
2. YOUR PART: Each winner agrees to GIVE AWAY their copy of Oppression (after they've read, signed, & dated it) to a friend, a friend of a friend, a stranger, anyone you think will enjoy the book.

My hope is that it will be kind of like a signed yearbook after a while, with the names of everyone who has read it. If it sounds confusing, don't worry, I'll include instructions. Just read, sign, pass on...

3.  GOODIES: Each initial winner will also get an Oppression notebook (and that's yours to keep, since you are kicking off the sharing). I'll include signed bookmarks to be passed along to the others as they share the book.


If you've already read Oppression, you can still enter to win a copy to give to a friend 
(as you'll have to pass it along anyway). 


There are others like her. Many of them.
And they have been waiting for her for a long time.

Giveaway ends Wednesday 7/18!
(open to US/Canada only)

  4. I would be a descendant of Athena with the power of wisdom. Who cares about muscles if you can out-think and out-maneuver the enemy and never get within striking distance?

    1. Good point. Are you sure you aren't already, lol?

  5. Ha! Easy question :) My favorite Greek god is Apollo, so I would like to be a descendant of him with the ability to heal. I've always loved that ability...and since I'm going into nursing it makes sense! lol
    But my other favorite goddess is Hecate, the goddess of magic. Okay maybe this wasn't such an easy question, lol. But I'd like to be a descendant of either of these 2 :)

  6. Descendant of Artemis! She's always been a favorite of mine! I would be amazing with my arrows, and Artemis and I could go hunting together! Plus, I love the moon and nighttime.

  9. Artemis or Themis - I would want to be a warrior for/protector of the weak or endangered [like the girl on the beach! :)].

    Just finished Oppression a couple of days ago and I can't wait to read the next one!

  10. Hmmm...toughie. I'd like to be the daughter of Poseidon with mermaid like powers... which is pretty much being a really awesome swimmer.
