Talk about a wild week! Between the yahoo virus, the tour, and various other necessary promo, I am beat! It's been insane, and I can honestly say I wasn't entirely prepared for it.

But you're not here for that, you want to know who won the $10 giftcard!

Without further ado, the name drawn from the hat is...

Joder, who visited Parajunkie's View!! Congrats! I'll be contacting Joder shortly and passing along the GC. ;-)

Amber Scott Project (and Paperbacks are here!)

First -- Dead is now available in print!! I'm so very excited. You can purchase a copy by visiting Amazon.com HERE.

Today, I'm visiting Amber Scott Project, answering some questions and shooting the breeze. She's a ton of fun to chat with, and we'd love to gab with you if you get the chance.

Only one more stop left on the tour, can you believe it? The support I've received has been so humbling and grounding. I could never do any of this without all of you. The encouragement means so much, to the point that I tell all of my friends and family just how important the people I've met along the way are. From those who graciously reviewed my stories when I was just starting out, to those who stopped by, said hello, and welcomed me into such a warm and caring circle of authors and readers.

Thanks to each and every single one of you for making time for me and for helping me promote this story. I don't know what I've done to deserve all of you, but I sure as hell appreciate each and every one of you.

Double Tour Stop!

Can you believe it? Only three days are left on the tour!

Today, I'm visiting two fantastic blogs!! I know it's a lot to ask, but if you get a chance, I'd love it if you could drop by and say hello!

The first blog I'm stopping by is the home of the wonderful author Marianne Arkins. I'm discussing the choice to make blood my drug of choice in Dead, Undead, or Somewhere in Between. Come by, say hi, and share how you come up with your ideas! The second blog is the lair of the sensual and saucy Wendi Zwaduk! She's asking me some super-fun questions, and it's sure to be a blast!

Don't forget: I'm entering names each time you comment (per blog) so your chances increase if you drop by and say hello at each stop. And I know I've said this before, but thanks for making this tour so freaking amazing. I owe all of you, big-time. ;-)

As a side note, I just ordered paperback copies of Dead from the press, so I'm extremely excited!!! I've spoken with the fabastic Fiction Vixen about visiting her blog after she reads and reviews my story and I will be giving away an autographed copy to a random commenter. More details will be coming soon, so keep checking back!

Raz Lover's Book Blog

Today I'm visiting Raz Lover's Book Blog! Drop by and visit while I answer some questions and give you some insight into my process, my life, and a few other things you might find interesting.

Thanks for all the support thus far. The tour has been amazing!

Parajunkie's View

Today I'm discussing creating my stories over at Parajunkie's View, a super cool blog that has all the latest news on what's happening in the paranormal book world. If you get a chance, come on over and say hello!

On a side note -- if the winning name I draw when the tour is complete is someone who has commented more than three times (aka on more than one stop), I am bumping the GC up to $15. It's my way of saying thanks and showing my appreciation.

Hope to see you there!

Book Marks and Tour Dates

Above is the front and back of my new book marks for Dead, Undead, or Somewhere in Between! Kim Richards, the owner of Damnation Books (who recently acquired Eternal Press), is going to have a booth at The Horrorfind Weekend in San Francisco. She's graciously offered to promo for me by stacking a few of these puppies at the convention, and I can't possibly thank her enough!

Today I'll be visiting A.F. Stewart's Blog, answering a few questions and talking about Dead, Undead, or Somewhere in Between. If you get a chance, drop in and say hello. I'm keeping tabs of each comment made (comments on each individual blog places your name into the hat -- so you can increase your chances of winning) and will be drawing one as soon as the tour is over for a $10 Amazon GC (or if you live outside of the US, I will mail a GC to you of your choosing, so long as I have access to the place).

On a sour note, I was forced to visit the Dr. today following a bought of sickness. The sinus infection I was suffering from worsened (spread from head to chest) and I had to get three shots, four prescriptions, and bed rest. So if you email me and I'm a bit slow to respond or act like a weirdo, that's why.

One more day 'til the weekend is here! Hope you all are doing well. I look forward to seeing all of you on tour!

My Reading Addiction Stop

Today the book tour makes a stop at My Reading Addiction. Please stop by, say hello, and join me as I answer some questions provided by my gracious host!!

See you there!

The Tour Continues!

Today I'm visiting The Space Snark Blog, discussing Getting Into Character. If you get a chance, drop on by and say hello!

This and That

Hello everyone!!! First -- thank you for voting for me again and making Lick Of Frost Book of the Week. You are the most amazing group of people, and your support is humbling.

And now for the "this and that" stuff. *smile*

The Dead tour is officially underway! Today I'm visiting The Cajun Book Lady Blog and answering a few questions. I'd really appreciate it if you could drop by and say hello. Tours are always draining, but the result is incredibly rewarding. I just have to remind myself of the bonuses versus the pitfalls.

Please forgive me, too, if I'm slow to respond to emails or blog stuff (I promise to get to your wonderful blog prize, Shelly) for the time being. I have edits on Eternity to wrap up by Friday, which means I'm going to be busy for a while!

Until then, baby girl and I have work to do!! Have a fantastic week. I'll be visiting everyone's blogs this morning!

Dead, Undead Tour

Writing Status - Just woke up
Mood - Sick
Playing on ipod - nada

Ugh. Two days into the New Year, and I have some kind of funk. I'm hoping it moves on outta here and leaves me be. I have too much to do.

As you can see by the shiny banner on the right, the Dead, Undead tour has been revived. It'll take place from February 8th - the 19th thanks to Goddess Fish Promotions. If you get a chance, drop by and say hello. Or, if you're a host, consider having me over. I'm offering a $15 gift card to the highest commented blog and $10 to a random commenter. So it's a win-win situation.

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. If I can climb out of bed (I'm taking shelter with my laptop at the moment) I still have tons of things to do around the house to prepare for the kiddos return to school.

Come on Down!!

I'm visiting the lovely Jacqueline Paige's blog today, as well as LASR. Come by and see me!
