The most stress-free giveaway you will ever enter!

Happy Holidays everyone!

I have a present for you. I have two signed books that I am going to GIVE TO YOU for free! That's right. You don't have to do ANYTHING. It's just because I love you.

I have...

Ash by Malinda Lo

and

Radiant Shadows by Melissa Marr

Leave me a comment telling me which one you want (or if you care). And leave me your e-mail if somehow I won't be able to contact you by clicking on your name. If you tell me why you want the book (like that you want to give it to someone) your chances of winning might be increased.

You do not have to be a follower. You do not have to have a blog (but you will have to give me your email if you don't). You do not have to link in your sidebar or post about this or tweet about this. If you want to, you can, but you don't have to! :D

You have until December 15. :) (Also, because it's in the holiday spirit, even though I have no money, this is an international giveaway. I feel bad for everyone who can't usually enter contests and giveaways because they don't live in the US or Canada.)

That's it!

Participate in Talli Roland's Web Splash!

On December 1st, Talli Roland's debut novel, THE HATING GAME, is available for e-book purchase on Amazon. Talli wants to try to get THE HATING GAME on the Amazon e-book bestseller list, even if only for an hour. But she needs our help!

On December 1st, post on your blog, facebook, twitter, goodreads, whatever, about purchasing an e-book copy of THG, and hopefully we can help Talli get THE HATING GAME on the list!

Here's a link to the text: http://talliroland.blogspot.com/p/web-splash-text-to-post.html

I'll be back on December 1 to encourage everyone to purchase an e-book copy. I'll probably be downloading an app for my iphone! :) The book has gotten great reviews so far; if you haven't heard of it, you should check it out asap! I can't wait to read it!

Busy!

Is anyone doing NaNoWriMo? I always mean to do it, but by the middle of October (never fails, for the past three years) my life gets so busy that I know it won't end up happening. Then by January or February, stuff has evened out and I always end up having my own NaNo.

This month, anyway, has been like NaNoRevMo (National Novel Revising Month) for me, though. I'm totally re-writing one of my projects, but I'm using the original plot as the outline, keeping most of the same characters, and even a couple scenes are getting updated. Plus I'm mapping severe revisions for another story. And plotting another story. (Brain, sometimes you have to rest! GIVE ME A REST!)

Also, I got a new kitten :)

[Falen reminded me that I didn't give you details! Thanks, Falen. Kitten is a girl, and her name is Lucy. She's somewhere around 10 weeks old.]

But anyway, I love Thanksgiving and Christmas/New Years time because I always have more time to read.

Right now I'm reading The Wayfarer Redemption by Sara Douglass. It's great so far (though I'm not that far into it, only like chapter five).

Here are some books on my list for the winter:

The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde (somehow I went through all of school never having to read this!)

Queen Victoria, Demon Hunter - A. E. Moorat

The Summer King - O. R. Melling

The Name of the Wind - Patrick Rothfuss

The Iron King - Julie Kagawa

Day of the Scarab - Catherine Fisher (one of my favorite YA authors)

Nevermore - Kelly Creagh

Glimmerglass - Jenna Black

You Wish - Mandy Hubbard

What are you really looking forward to reading this winter?
