About Wyndano's Cloak
Jen has settled into a peaceful life when a terrifying event awakens old fears—of being homeless and alone, of a danger horrible enough to destroy her family and shatter her world forever.
She is certain that Naryfel, a shadowy figure from her past, has returned and is concentrating the full force of her hate on Jen's family. But how will she strike? A knife in the dark? An attack from her legions? Or with the dark arts and twisted creatures she commands with sinister cunning.
Wyndano's Cloak may be Jen's only hope. If she can only trust that she has what it takes to use it . . .

About Cowboy
Life has done its best to knock Beth McCasland to the ground, and the truth is: it's done a pretty good job of keeping her there. Stuck in a minimum-wage job with a young daughter counting on her, Beth does her best to stay standing under the weight of it all because she knows God is on her side. Then one night she gets the chance to be an angel to another of life's weary travelers. For once hope has never looked so real.
Cowboy is a grace-filled story about the power of giving everything to God and how a simple act of compassion can change lives forever. Emotional, soothing, and heart-wrenching, Cowboy is infused with the message that no matter who we are and no matter what life has thrown at us, we never have to walk alone.

About Where Will You Run?
As a San Francisco homicide detective, Mari Lucas was used to calling in favors to get her sister, Kerry, out of trouble, but this was the last straw. Instead of her usual minor brush with the law, Kerry landed herself in a locked psychiatric ward rambling about vampires who were out to get her. Working in San Francisco, Mari had seen a lot of crazy things, but vampires? Maybe Kerry had finally lost her mind. But when her sister goes missing from the secure psychiatric facility, Mari is forced to investigate her disappearance along with a disturbing increase in missing persons cases among the homeless population. Forced to work the case with an outside detective, Mari will stop at nothing to find her sister. But what she finds will change her life forever.

About The Grimoire: Lichgates
The Grimoire is a book that turns its own pages and can answer any question asked of it, so Kara Magari has no idea what she's getting herself into when she stumbles across the old book while hiking a hidden trail. Once she opens it, she's thrown into Ourea: a beautiful world full of terrifying things that all want the Grimoire's secrets. The trouble is that, since she opened it, only she can access its magic. Most of the creatures Kara meets want to control her, but everyone and everything in this new world is trying to find her. There's no going back now.

Add the lovely award image to your blog. (check)

Seven Random Facts
I'm only a redhead in the summer.
My favorite food is York bars.
I broke my wrist when I was a child and had it reset 4 times before it healed. The doctor said, on my last visit, that it took so many tries because I didn't scream loud enough the first 3 times it was set. >.<
I couldn't care less about clothes or fashion; I am, however, grossly addicted to sparkly diamonds and semi-precious stones.
My husband is truly my soul mate. He has made me believe it true love when I previously thought it was only a plot device.
I hunch over books with a pen and a highlighter whenever I read anything. Anything.
I've been writing my Grimoire Trilogy for over 6 years and it's an amazing feeling to have the first one published.
The Nominees!
Rebecca Hamilton's blog: a fantastic cacophony of writing discussions, book reviews, and even discussions on parenting. It's a very interactive place with a lot of insight. Check it out!
Novel d'Tales by HilyBee: a great place to hunt for new authors and book recommendations. Plus, she's a sweetheart.
Book Blogs and Cat Naps by Donna Brown: a fantastic place to discuss writing, read up on new books, and learn. She posts frequently, so there's always something new!
Diapers, Books, and Pipedreams by Kirkus MacGowan: riddled with writerly discussions. He's also a great guy to know.
Ramblings of a Redhead by L. G. Kelso: love going here for her great discussions and posts. She happens to also rock.
Commuting Girl by Elodie: rife with discussions on the writerly craft.
90 Days in the Machine by G. E. Johnson: a look at her time in the KDP lending library program. Good read, and it's great that she's being so open about her experiences.
A Writer's Notes by Laura E. Bradford: always a good place to stop for writer-like advice. Oh dear, do you see a trend with the blogs I read? I'll switch things up…
…with a book blog. Book Rat by Misty: a fantastic and interactive book blog. I love going through her reviews. Seriously, check it out.
Dronezone by Felicity: a great poetry and photography blog by a great person to know.
Tyr Kieran's blog: a great place for horror fans. Make sure you check it out! It's awesome.
I'm a Reader, Not a Writer by Kathy: Kathy's giveaway hops, book reviews, and author interviews are virtually legendary.
The Same Six Questions by Andy Rane: a great author interview series. It's a great way to learn about new authors and maybe find a new favorite.
A Newbie's Guide to Publishing: one of the best blogs to learn about publishing, from both an indie and traditional publishing perspective.
And now for someone completely different: make sure you check out Felicia Day's blog. She's a gamer and script writer, and she seems like a lot of fun. I think fantasy nuts like me will probably love her blog. Make sure you check out the Dragon Age Redemption web series.

About Remember Newvember
The entire fiasco started as a dare. Try one new thing each day for 30 days – make it entertaining, call it Newvember and create a weblog to track the adventures. Willow thought she could keep things simple and maintain control; how could she know her entire life was about to unravel?
Jennifer's debut novel, Remember Newvember, is women's fiction. Its thought-provoking content is gift-wrapped in a light-hearted, easy-to-read package. The book was written with enjoyment, and the author hopes others will enjoy reading it for what it is – a little escape from the doldrums of day-to-day life.
