Contest results, cool posts, & new contest coming soon

Okay, I've selected a winner for the "Name Raine's Book 6" contest. However, "the powers that be" at my publisher have to give a green light to the title first. As soon as I have their okey-dokey, I'll announce it here. Hopefully this will be in the next day or so.

The economy is starting to bounce back, but book sales are still suffering. In an effort to help out my author buddies -- and to help ya'll discover some great books -- I'll be inviting some of my author buds over to guest blog. You can read snippets from their books, and there will always be contests to win an autographed copy of the book being featured. I'll be featuring my author buddies' new books the week before they're available on the shelves -- that way you can read the snippet, get to know the author, and if you like what you see, the very next week you can run out and buy yourself a copy -- though the lucky winner of the contest will get an autographed copy for free. ; ) This will serve the cool dual purpose of helping you all discover some great books/authors, and will help my friends boost their sales. Everyone wins.

Late next week, I'll be featuring Rob Thurman and her latest Cal & Niko adventure (that I can't wait to get my hands on) -- Roadkill. Jeez, but I love that title. I'll be posting the first chapter of Roadkill here, and a teaser from Chapter 2. Rob (actually Robyn) sent it to me yesterday and it rocked my world.

On Friday, I'll be announcing a fun new contest, with a new prize that I've never offered before. Stay tuned.
