December 2009:

It’s the month for gift-giving, and I’m giving away a lot this month. I’m in three contests where the prize is a Kindle or a Sony Reader. The Raven Rockin’ Around the Raven Xmas Tree contest (for a Sony Reader, a $50 prepaid Visa card, or a $25 Amazon gift certificate), the Samhellion authors are having a scavenger hunt (there’ll be a different e-reader given away each week – alternating between international Kindles and Sony Readers) starting December 4th, and my Samhain editor is hosting a contest featuring her authors with a Kindle up for grabs. Don’t forget to check out my blog regularly, both for my guest bloggers and other contests I’m holding – such as the 2010 Toronto Firefighter calendar contest, and a chance to win my good friend Red Garnier’s The Satin Sash from NAL Heat.

October 2009:

Along with over 20 other authors, I'm participating in the Raven Scavenger Hunt. For a chance to win a copy of my Personal Protection, or one of 20 other books, visit my blog and click on the link in the sidebar, or at the bottom of the page, for full instructions.

This month's Protect Yourself guest blogger is EMT Joe Collins who offers some suggestions on how to stay safe if you're in a car accident.

September 2009:

Every time you leave a comment on my blog, you are entered in my Reader Appreciation Contest. A winner is chosen at the end of each month - the prize is the winner's choice of any Samhain e-book. (Maximum 1 entry per day) 

Also I've started a new feature on my blog at the start of each month - Protect Yourself - advice for keeping yourself safe in real life. September's guest blogger is LA police officer Kathy Bennett with some important information for parents of teenaged girls.

June 2009:

It's my birthday and I'm having a party - but this time the guests get the presents.  From June 26th to the end of July, I've invited over 30 authors to help me celebrate. Multipublished authors such as Jaci Burton, Candace Havens, Ann Aguirre, Beth Kery, Beth Williamson, Lorelei James, Maya Banks, Shelli Stevens, Kate Pearce, Vivi Anna ... there's too many wonderfully talented authors to list here. Many of them will be holding contests giving away copies of their books.   Check in on my blog every day to see who's dropped by and leave a comment to enter. But there will be four more ways you can win - read here how you can enter the other contests. Good luck!

Personal Protection will be released in May 2009 and will be part of a new series. The Hauberk Protection series will follow the bodyguards introduced in Personal Protection as they protect not only their Principals, but also their hearts.

On December 30th, don't forget to visit The Samhellion to download my free New Year's Eve story, First Night. This short story introduces you to Jodi and Mark, the hero and heroine of Private Property, as Jodi decides to usher in the New Year with 'a bang' instead of a fizzle. And gets a whole lot more than she bargained for.
