Box Load of Books Giveaway

I first found Lynda Coker when I started watching the Yardsellr sales.  Being a fabric junkie and huge sewing fanatic, I was thrilled when I found her sales and that she offered free S & H.  So imagine my surprise when I accidentally found out that she also has an entire blog dedicated not to sewing, but to books.  I almost did backflips.  Then I found out she was holding a book giveaway and really got excited.  You know me, I love a good giveaway.

Lynda is giving away 6 novels to one lucky winners.  They are from different genres, including romance and fictional adventure.  There are a couple on the list I’d love to read, and the others look interesting.  What really grabbed my attention is that the only required entry was to leave a viable comment on ANY book review post.  It doesn’t even have to be one a review of one of the books being given away.  And, the more book reviews you leave comments on, the more chances you’ll have to win the giveaway.  Another entry comes from following her blog on GFC.

This is an easy one, kids.  And you’ve got lots of time as this giveaway ends on August 31st.  But the more comments (and please make them real comments) the more chances of winning this cool contest.

NaBloPoMo August 2011

I’m very happy to announce that I will be working toward “a post a day, everyday” again this month.  The NaBloPoMo group works toward this every month, but it’s sometimes not as easy to do as it sounds.  The cool this is that every month, they offer a different theme which gives everyone involved a chance to write around something they love, or hate.  What caused me to jump on the bandwagon again this month is the theme.  This month, the site is having FICTION as their theme.  Count me in.

Now mind you, in order to participate, bloggers don’t have to go with the theme completely.  They just have to make sure to add a post (or more) every day.  But this was almost like a calling from the literary gods for me.  I’ve been trying to get back into writing fiction once again, and this was almost like someone from a higher plane of existence reached down and screamed “What more do we need to do to get your attention???  Go For It!!!”  So, I am.

Throughout the month, I’ll be adding different things about fiction.  Because I do love fictional books so much, I’ll be talking about the ones I’m reading—or trying to read.  I’ll add different giveaways going on to win books, and I’ll even do what I can to talk about those who are reviewing the books.  If it’s about fiction, I’ll try and post about it here.  Whatever I can do to make sure to add something everyday.

I really want to make this work and to be able to say at the end of the month that I achieved my goals.  So sit back and come along on a ride to where fiction and reality may end up being the same thing.

Latest Book Related Giveaways

Hello Kiddies!!!  Did you miss me?  Sorry that I’ve been away so long but I’ve been working away at working my life away.  Not just at my real world job, but here online trying to find all the latest in goodies to pass along to my loverly readers.  Plus I’ve been updating a lot of my other blogs, working on getting my Squidoo page up and running and looking like I almost know what I’m doing, and trying to win anything and everything I can.

Well let’s get down to business.  I’ve been searching for some really cool book giveaways, and have found a little more.  One of my all-time favorite book blogs is holding a nice little giveaway.  This blog, Dark Faerie Tales, was the very first book blog I followed on a regular basis.  It was also the place where I discovered giveaways and became addicted.  (Please understand that this page maybe getting updated after each entry so that I can legally say that I’ve blogged about each giveaway and I’m not going through convulsions.)

Para-Ops Tote filled with all kinds of goodies.
I love tote bags and my hubby loves food, so this is right up our alley.  But more than anything else, I’d love to win this one for the book that comes with this one.  It’s called A Vampire’s Salvation by Virna DePaul and it’s just a novella, but that’s cool with me.
Ending Tonight (May 19th) @ 11:59 EST/8:59 PST–(The main reason I’m going to go ahead and post this one is because today is mine and my hubby’s 21st wedding anniversary and I’d be thrilled to tell him I’d won this for us.  LOL)

This next giveaway is one I found on the Ning site, Book Blogs.  I’ve found a lot of great giveaways on this site and am proud to be a member.  This giveaway is through a site called Historical Fiction Obsession and she’s giving away 2 copies of Christine Nolfi’s e-book, Treasure Me.

This one sounds like an awesome book and even if I don’t win, I might have to buy myself a copy anyway.  But I’ll give the giveaway a shot first.  This giveaway runs until May 23rd and there will be 2 winners.

And finally, I’m showcasing the giveaway for Wild Cards 1.  I found the link to this one on Facebook but the actual giveaway is being hosted on GoodReads.  This giveaway will be giving away a total of 10 books, so be sure to get your name in on this one.  It doesn’t end until June 13th, so you have plenty of time.

I love this site as they’ve got tons of book giveaways all the time.  Plus I’ve met some really cool people—readers and writers.  If you happen to get in on this one, be sure to stop by my page and add me to your friends list.  I can always use another friend or 12.

So there you go, Kiddies.  3 new giveaways for you to play with and enjoy.  I’m sure there are more out there and as they come along, I’ll try and pass them along right here.  But until then, happy reading and happier writing.
