Zombiepalooza Giveaway & Day of Sacrifice

Image
When Amanda asked if I would like to contribute to Zombiepalooza I answered her with a resounding, “Hell yes!” Then I had to figure out what exactly I could contribute. I write YA paranormal romance novels and while they have a lot of magic and hot boys in them, they aren’t very scary. Actually, they aren’t even spooky. So I came up with the bright idea to excerpt a short story I was working on called Day of Sacrifice . Witches, human sacrifices, people burning alive, ass kicking angels? Day of Sacrifice has all of these, which makes it more appropriate for Halloween and Zombiepalooza to be certain. And just because it’s fun, I’m giving away copies of all three of my books. Details after the excerpt.   Day of Sacrifice blurb:   With only three days left until her twenty-first birthday, her Day of Sacrifice, Flora Hamilton should be living it up. But when another Supernatural family puts a hit on her she’s forced to go into hiding with Julian, her gorgeous new Guardian...

whoo hoo meets exhaustion and an excerpt

The good news is: My Blood Approves is currently available for Kindle on Amazon.com for only $.99! That's right. I'm practically giving it away! The bad news is that I spent so much time promoting it and looking up stuff and trying to network that I didn't get any writing done on anything else. And I'm not sure that I have anything to show for all that hardwork. Self-promotion feels so weird. I feel like such a jackass saying how awesome something I did was. And all these author bios where I have to write about myself in third-person? Ugh.  And I don't know how Kathy Griffen does it. For reals. Because its hard, and it's a fine line between promotion and SPAMing everyone and being obnoxious. But at the same time, if I sit back and do nothing.... well, then nothing happens. Onto more positive things: I promised an exerpt from My Blood Approves last time I blogged, and even though I'm not sure anyone is reading this, I deliver on all my promises, In a move...
