Happy Wednesday All, For those of you who haven't "liked" my Facebook Author page, here's what you're missing: I'm giving away a Kindle copy of Astral Love . The giveaway ends tomorrow (Thursday, Oct. 30th). You still have time to head over to my Facebook Author Page to check out the details of the giveaway and enter! Have A Wonderfully Whimsical Wednesday!

Happy Monday (or Tuesday, since it's already evening time on Monday), I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was pretty nice. Offspring had something on Saturday morning, so we went to that, then relaxed (slept) in the afternoon. Church on Sunday, then visit with one of my in-laws. Then, during the day on Sunday got email from publisher saying my novel would be out this week after all! I was so excited. Well...I'm even more excited, because I got such a wonderful surprise today! I found out that Immortal Dreams Book Two: Astral Love is actually available NOW ! Yes, you can get it on Amazon Kindle ! Immortal Dreams Book One: Divine Love is also available on Amazon Kindle . Hope you all enjoy them! I'm working on writing Book Three! Note:  Tomorrow (Oct. 28th) author C.C. Hunter 's Eternal will be available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble . Have A Marvelously Merry Monday & Tantalizingly Terrific Tuesday!

Happy Friday All, There is a ton going on in the Averie Household (both real life and writing life) including an upcoming release of mine, but I did want to give you all a little taste of what a fellow writer friend of mine has cooking and that's my pal and awesome writer,  C.C. Hunter ! Those of you who are fans of the Shadow Falls series will remember she's taken on a new challenge in writing sassy vampire, Della Tsang's stories in Shadow Falls After Dark , Reborn . But that wasn't the end of the story. The story continues in Eternal ... Life of a teenager is never simple. And when you're a vampire reborn   dealing with family drama, boys, and your dream job (which just happens to be filled with danger) your plate is full. Add a ghost demanding you find a girl named Natasha who may or may not be alive, you get Della's life. Della finds it hard to balance out her regular life, but her love life isn't any better. Then comes the bomb from Steve,...

Happy Monday All, Sorry for posting this blog post so late in the day. I had a very hectic weekend--had to finish up my 2nd round edits of Immortal Dreams Book Two, Astral Love , and Sunday was booked solid. Today I took some time to recuperate a little bit from all the busyness. (I'm actually still recuperating, but I've had things to do today, so I'm doing those things as well--which also means I need to get going on finishing writing Immortal Dreams Book Three!) The winner of my birthday giveaway and recipient of a copy of Immortal Dreams Book One, Divine Love , is ROBIN ! So congratulations to Robin and your entry about the original movie of Clash of The Titans . I've sent Robin an email with information on how to claim the prize. Thank you to everyone who participated--I truly appreciate it. Thank you also for the lovely birthday wishes, that was sweet of everyone. I had a good birthday week and so far being the new number (age) I am has been a good expe...

Happy Wednesday Everybody, Also, happy my birthday to you all! It's a beautiful, sunshiny day outside. Weather report says it's 75 degrees out (I wish that was 65 degrees or lower--but not bitter cold; and no snow or ice. LOL) but the weather doesn't listen to me. (How rude, LOL!) PLEASE NOTE AS OF 10/17/2014 10:00 PM Central Standard Time this contest is now CLOSED. I am NOT accepting any more entries. Thank you! I know it's customary for the birthday person to receive gifts on his/her birthday, however, since it's MY day I'm going to shake things up a bit. I'm going to GIVE something away to you, my darling readers, instead! Please read the details below VERY CAREFULLY! I repeat VERY CAREFULLY . I'm emphasizing "very carefully" because if you're anything like me, you embarrassingly misread something in a giveaway rules section and ended up feeling stupid that you didn't read them carefully, so I'm trying to spare...

Happy Monday Everybody, It's my birthday week...did you know that? And yes, I may be over 30, but I STILL get excited about my birthday (which is Wednesday, the 15th). I'm hoping to do something special for my readers that day, but we'll see. There is A LOT going on in my life. Currently working on 2nd round edit read through for my publisher on Book Two in the Immortal Dreams Trilogy, Astral Love , which is supposed to release on October 28th. So yes, there's a lot of "I need to get this done!" going on in my head. I'm excited about the Trilogy continuing and hoping that my readers enjoy this next installment. It took me on quite an adventure. On October 4th I attended my chapter's Lone Star Writer's On left: My editor from my publishing house On right: Me (Bethany Averie) Conference , which happens every year. I had a lot of fun. My editor was in town and so I got to spend some time chatting with her, talking about my progress and...

Happy Thursday All, I'm a bit late posting this blog post--make that about 2 days late. I meant to post this on the release day or the day before, but I've been so swamped lately that the days "got away from me" so to speak. On October 7th author Laura Childs released a new novel, so today I thought I'd give you all a peek into it... Carmela and Ava are snooping out a brand-new mystery in Laura Childs' newest Scrapbooking mystery. Ghouls, vampires, and zombies are on the loose as New Orleans gears up for Halloween and Carmela's October holiday calendar is jam packed with invitations featuring all things haunting. But the fun of the season takes a somber turn when her business neighbor, Marcus Joubert, falls out of a cabinet and into Carmela's frightened arms. The worst part is the owner of Oddities is dead. Murder and thievery hang in the air as Carmela and her best bud, Ava, try to track down the killer and the stolen mysteri...

Happy Wednesday All, Also, a very happy October to everybody! October is one of my favorite months. Okay, I'm going to come across as biased, but my birthday is in October and I've always loved my birthday--yeah, I'm over 30, but who cares? It's my special day and I get to celebrate it...even though this year it's on a Wednesday (not today, a different Wednesday). But never mind! I will be celebrating! Currently I'm gearing up for the NWHRWA Lone Star Writer's Conference , which is featuring keynote  speaker Bob Mayer , and special guest, Jen Talty . I always look forward to the NWHRWA conference. It's an opportunity to hang out with all my writing pals and meet new ones. Also, this year, my publisher is coming down, so it'll be a new (and I'm thinking fun) experience to see my publisher as one of their authors rather than someone who they didn't know. Another way I'm celebrating is by being a guest on author Anne B. Cole...
