A Big Thank You and What's Coming Next!

Thank you for the well wishes  to Gwendolyn! I hope she sleeps tonight. It's been a long few days, and I'm trying my best not to get sick, too. But as Barney for How I Met Your Mother says:
Whenever I start feeling sick, I just stop feeling sick, and start feeling awesome instead. True story.
I hope it works. It's all in my head. Sorry If I'm not visiting as much over the next few days, but I will try my best. Now, onto bigger and better things.

Thank you for all the comments for my guest post on Alex's blog (and for leaving some here as well). It was awesome and a little overwhelming, I don't know how he gets to everyone...but I guess that's why he's the Ninja Captain. And thank you for helping make my Provex City giveaway a success! I was privileged to give away 1300 copies, and I hope many of those people will actually enjoy it. :) I almost made it to the Top 100 Free ebooks. My favorite number was #29 for Free Children's ebooks. I couldn't have done it without your help (my help? Yes, your help--I'm pointing at you!).

My 2012 Debut Author Blog Hop Giveaway is still going and has 2 more days, so enter to win a SIGNED copy of Michael Offutt's debut novel, Slipstream!

I received the 7x7 Link Award from C.M. Brown and the Lucky 7 Meme from Julie Flanders, last week. Thank so much for thinking of me and I will post about them next Monday. :)

This week I am also participating in the First Fight / First Kiss Blogfest hosted by Jackie: Bouquet of Books and Dani: Entertaining Interests. I will be using scenes from Provex City because it actually has both, how lucky for me! Tuesday is First Fight, and Thursday is First Kiss.

Lastly, I am doing one more Blog Hop Giveaway starting Wednesday for Indie Authors. I really didn't want to do two giveaway blog hops in a row, but this was my chance to offer the paperback of Provex City. So if you held out because you don;t like ebooks, then this is your chance.

Do I have enough going on? I don't have time to get sick. :) Happy Monday, everyone!

  1. Hey, I saw you reach #8 in the free scifi fiction category. Awesome showing. Now all of those 1300 should tell 3 or 4 people to buy your book. Take care.

  5. Wow! You have been busy! I can't wait to read your Lucky 7, that's my favorite of all the challenges/awards going around the writerly blogs. Very cool!

    Congrats on the success of your book free days. I know you'll get a bunch of great reviews and, hopefully, more sales.

    Today I'll write my acceptance speech after you so kindly awarded me the Book Blogger Award. I hadn't forgotten but Internet is iffy in some small towns I've visited lately. Thanks for the honor.

    I'll keep poking around to check out your Lucky 7 and First Fight/First Kiss post. Dying to check those out!

  8. James, that would be nice...we'll see!

    Laura, thanks so much! :)

    Alex, almost! Wouldn't it be nice to take a day off once and a while? That's what I think about a sick day.

    Julie, my belief in being well has paid off, I'm feeling pretty good after a full night's sleep. :)

    Gina, absolutely, and I hope I get more reviews too! :)

    Cassie Mae, that's so awesome! I hope he likes it. :)
