Thanks For Hopping!

The Jingle Book Blog Hop has come to a close. Thanks to everyone for stopping by and leaving a comment. The draw has been made for the five copies of Dead and Kicking. It was conducted by my lovely assistants (my son and niece) and involved a highly regulated process that included slips of paper, a Santa hat and a rigorous game of rock, paper, scissors in order to determine who got to draw the fifth and final name.

Jingle Book Blog Hop – Start Hopping!

I had a bit of a technical glitch yesterday and and suffered from premature publication (don’t you just hate when that happens?). If you visited my post for the hop yesterday and tried the giveaway link and found it didn’t work, I apologize.  The hop is now live. Check out my original post (click the picture below), enter the giveaway and start visiting the other stops!

Fun Friday

This made me laugh this morning and since it is that time of year when everyone is out frantically holiday shopping, I thought I’d pass along this helpful guide for buying toys for the kids on your list.  Enjoy!

Fun Friday

My mother won’t want to hear this, on the other hand, I know she won’t be shocked either, but I drop the occasional F-bomb. I use them in my writing sometimes as well, when appropriate for the character.  This just sort of gives me a feeling of validation.  Plus I got a head start on Helen Mirren!
