Kylie From SHADOWFALLS Celebrates My Birthday

Happy Thursday Everyone,

****THE CONTEST IS NOW OFFICIALLY CLOSED*****


The last of my belated birthday celebration give away is today. Because of my health and other things going on, I'm going to have to close this give away earlier than I did the previous one. I'm doing okay, just need to close the contest out earlier so that I can get to bed earlier.

The awesome C.C. Hunter has agreed to give away a signed copy of her YA Paranormal novel, book 2 in the Shadowfalls series, Awake At Dawn.

I haven't finished reading Awake At Dawn, yet (I received it as a birthday gift from one of my relatives and C.C. graciously signed it) but I'm enjoying it so far. A friend of mine has finished reading it and told me it's very good. 

If you wish to own a signed copy of this new release (and read it, of course) please read the following rules and instructions carefully:

1.   One winner will be chosen after the contest is closed out. The Contest will close at 10:00 p.m. Central Time on Thursday, October 20, 2011. I will not accept entries after that point.

2.  Choose ONE way of entering this give away (I only take ONE entry per person):

By Blog Comment:  If you choose to enter by leaving a comment here:  Please include your FIRST NAME and EMAIL ADDRESS---please also include your favorite type of paranormal creature (anything from witches to vampires to shapeshifters to nymphs to warlocks to centaurs and everything in between).  If you leave a comment here keep in mind that ALL comments are moderated by me before they are published in the comment section. This isn't to dictate who can say what, on the contrary, I have yet to find a comment I can't post (unless it's a duplicate), however, given the blog problems I've had in the past with people having trouble posting comments, I changed up things and so far it's proven to have helped.

Entering By Email:  If you decide to enter by email, please email me your entry at this email address ONLYPlease include your FIRST NAME and what paranormal creature is your favorite (whether that's a vampire, witch, warlock, nymph, shapeshifter, centaur or anything in between--I just want to know what your favorite is).

As I said, I will be closing the contest/give away out at 10:00 p.m. Central Time today, Thursday, October 20, 2011.

Enjoy the give away!

Have A Tantalizing Thursday!

Bethany,
Great pictures of you at conference, celebrating your birthday. I'm happy to have been part of your celebration. I'm sorry to read of your health problems, and pray that you'll feel better soon.
Your giveaway is a sweet gesture and reflects your generous nature that we all are used to seeing.
If I must choose a paranormal creature other than my own children, I choose the nymph. They'll short like me and have similar interests. lol
Thank you for a lovely giveaway to honor your special day and C. C. Hunter's new release, Awake at Dawn.
If I'm fortunate enough to win, please contact me at www.mebbryant.com.
Thanks!
Meb

Meb,

Awww thank you so much! I'm actually doing a tiny bit better. I think I'm fighting something, but my ears feel better than they did and I'm a little less tired today than I was all week. So hopefully I'm on the mend!

I had a GREAT Birthday at the Conference, but they do take energy out of me, so I just need a chance to rest and recover. Maybe tomorrow I'll get a chance to take the day a bit slower. We'll see!

Thank you for your entry and for dropping by :-)

I would have to say that my favorite paranormal creature would be a vampire. Even though I've already read this book, I'd love to have a signed copy of it. Awesome!

Regina--I think I'm on the mend, thank you. And thank you for your entry--there are some very cool vampires out there :-)

Sarah--Signed copies of books are always awesome to have. Thank you for your entry :-)

Bethany, Glad ur on the mend. I tend to go for a sexy lion shifter myself. Vamps are hot but I think of Micah in Laurell K. Hamilton's book, and he's just yummy :)

It's Worth A Fortune

Happy Tuesday Everyone, Does anyone remember the song If I Had A Million Dollars by Barenaked Ladies ? I can't remember when or how I was first introduced to this song, but it's a fun song. So, how about if you had a million dollars? What would you do with it? Of course there's the responsible things to do with a million dollars--pay off debts, and such like that. Then there's the question of whether or not you give to charities, and how much. But, suppose you answered all those questions and you still had quite a lot left; what would you do with it? Maybe I'd go to Disney World. I've wanted to go, and I've never been able to. Or, perhaps I'd go to Germany and England, and Belgium (three of the countries my ancestors are from). Travel around seeing family and friends I don't see often. There's all kinds of possibilities. So, what about you? What would you do with a million dollars? Have A Tremendous Tuesday!

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

Happy Tuesday Everyone, There's a gem of an author I've had the privilege of coming across...I'm talking about my friend, Loretta Wheeler. She's a sweetheart and very talented author. I enjoyed her YA Paranormal novella, The Pan Man immensely. And, she also writes Romance. So without further ado, come into my parlor and meet Loretta Wheeler: Me:  In your YA novelette, The Pan Man , you mention Pan's looking for his long lost soul mate. What made you choose Pan out of all the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses? Loretta:  I chose the Greek god Pan, because of the connection with the music. I found later on in the story, (my stories take over and write themselves usually) it applied even more than I realized because of the band's name. I won't mention the name of the band in here, because it's part of the surprise ending. Me:  You're mostly known for your Romance stories. How would you describe your writing style? Hot, suspenseful, sensual, sw...

Myths About Writers

Afternoon Folks, I thought we'd do a post to dispel some of the myths people seem to have about writers. I'll put the ones that first come to mind then y'all can chime in. Myth: Writing is a great way to make a lot of money. I'm not sure exactly how this one matriculated. Probably in the wake of some of the big best sellers (i.e. Stephen King, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer, JK Rowling, and the like) but most of the time writers put in more money for their writing than they do get out of it. Generally a writer doesn't make a ton of money unless somehow his/her book is a blockbuster hit and blasts through what the author owes in the advance (which is paid back to publishers through royalties). Most writers I've met and talked to are not millionaires. I'm not saying it can't happen, I'm saying it's not one of those things that's automatic. Myth: Writing Is Easy Anybody Can Do It. Okay, granted this isn't entirely a myth, but it's not ent...
