I don’t know about you, but this is my absolute favorite time of year. The weather is getting cooler, football is on t.v. and soon leaves will be falling off the trees. We have Halloween, Thanksgiving and then the Christmas season to look forward to. This is my favorite time of year. I love seeing the pumpkins already in the produce departments and knowing that soon I’ll be able to decorate my home for the upcoming holiday season.
In gearing up for fall I found this great children’s book, You Are My Pumpkin, and it is FREE through 9/13/13. A beautifully illustrated bedtime story to tell your own little pumpkins you love them. Also, a fun way to get children excited for Halloween with adorable characters, colorful scenes and a sweet story.
Make sure to pick up your copy today while this fall freebie lasts!
If you aren't on Facebook and following my page, you may not know this -
Freebie coming up this Friday, Saturday and Sunday - April 5, 6 and 7
That's right - Forever Young: Blessing or Curse for Kindle/or PC will be free on those days. If you don't have a copy, be sure to click and get one before it goes back to its usual $2.99 price.
Blessing or Curse contains 5 different stories about 5 very different people taking the Forever Young pill. Each story has some sort of romance, but is much more than a typical romance.
Children, commercials, news - It seems the first of anything get the most attention.
When I heard Two Wrongs was accepted for publication, I was over the moon with joy. I'd finally achieved a goal I'd worked hard to get.
I set out to write another book, called Girl of My Dreams, and was also thrilled when that was accepted by the publishing company. Still, the second book took a backseat in the sense it wasn't my very first.
During a conversation with my mystery author friend, Austin S. Camacho, in the book room of a Love is Murder Mystery Conference, he convinced me that self-publication was worth the effort and expense. If I paid attention to what I wrote, then hired an editor and book designer, I could get a quality book ready in less time than the traditional route. Not only that, the cost was within my means. I'm grateful to him for that advice, since the older I've gotten, the more I don't feel like waiting. I've self-published Killer Career, Forever Young:Blessing or Curse and Her Handyman since our talk.
I digress. The purpose of this post is actually to mention my second born book, Girl of My Dreams, for which I received the rights back and got a brand new cover designed by Stephen Walker in the process, is taking center stage this Friday, Feb. 8, through Sunday, Feb. 10.
MARK YOUR CALENDARS - My romantic comedy about the straitlaced assistant's madcap adventures in a reality show will be FREE for Kindle or download to PC on Feb. 8 through Feb 10. See the links below to click for your freebie. I'd love to get tons of downloads so I can offer my second born her day in the sun!
To celebrate the summer my short tale about a musical boy and magic is currently free at Smashwords and on iTunes.
Amazon is still waiting to catch up, but hopefully it will show free there soon too.
Please enjoy!

This is a Short Story!
Ring Around the Rosie, a centuries old children’s song known by all. We all remember the song and dance, people telling us it was about the Great Plague…but what if the song was really a warning for something else?
Aaron is a normal boy fascinated with music. He loves playing his flute so much he doesn’t even mind lessons over summer break. When he meets a strange boy at the park who seems to be just as obsessed they spend summer days entertaining children in the parks woods. But friends often have secrets, music can be magical, and even the most innocent of children’s games can be more than they appear.
This story contains NO violence, foul language or sex.
If you're one of the lazy schmoes out there that hasn't purchased the book yet, Jenn over at Booksessed is offering up a chance to win not only a copy of Fathers and Sons, but Liars and Thieves as well.

It's that easy.
Oh, and there's also a free piece of original art thrown in there.
Giveaway ends on the 10th. click the linky-link below and get on it.
That's right, as of this morning there are not one, not two, not three or even four, but forty-two pages of "Forts: Fathers and Sons" available for you to read online!
Get this...
It's totally free!
Don't say I never gave you anything.
Why not click the link below and take a look? What have you got to lose? Nothing.
Or did you already forget that I said it was free?
Damn you and your short memory.

Need a dose of cuteness? Well, head over to Gingerbred for free ipod/iphone wallpaper. What a great little freebie! Check in on her blog often because she has some very creative artwork inspired from the topics on Illustration Friday. Oh, she also has a new Etsy shop.

OH jen, i am so in love with these wallpaper!! It's gorgeous and soo cute!! Thanks so much for sharing your findings with us!! Loving the shop! Have a lovely merry happy week and love to yoU!
Why? Well, because I'm a heck of a guy, that's why.
However, giving away something requires a contest, and contests are more often than not a pain in the poop cheeks of those putting them together.
If I'm going to do a contest I want to keep it simple - because I'm lazy.
To enter all you have to do is finish the following sentence:
"I really, really want a free copy of "Forts" because..."
That's it.
Just tell me why you deserve to get the book for free and email it to: [email protected]
In the end, I'm the judge. I'll pick my favorite and when the book is released you'll not only get it for free, but I'll sign it and maybe even draw a little something on the inside cover. I'll do whatever you want. If you feel like you really need me to put on some lipstick, pucker up and give it a kiss I'll do that too.
Keep in mind however that asking me to do such a thing would be horrifying, and confusing request - no doubt instantly transforming you into a grade-A weirdo in my eyes.
Who knows, maybe you're cool with that? Maybe that's exactly what you're going for? I'm not here to judge really, just give away free stuff.
Make your response funny, give me a sob story, threaten my life and the lives of those I love - I don't care - do what you have to do in order to convince me that you deserve a freebie over the other dudes sending emails my way.
You could even bribe me, though that would seem to defeat the purpose.
THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS MARCH 15, 2010. I'll announce the winner a few days later.
See, nice and easy. It'll take you all of fifteen seconds. Get to it.
How do you come up with such wonderful titles? That is one thing I always struggle with - I usually can't come up with a title until after the piece is finished.
