#RealmsFaire

Cathrina needs your help. She’s trapped in Lucien’s Bar, the gateway to the Underworld, and challenging Jezebel, the Master Poisoner, to a punch-making contest is her only way out. Please come over and cheer her on. Your comments will improve her chances of escaping (and not getting poisoned in the process). The Immortals aren’t above cheating so here are three magic words to give Cathrina an edge in the contest: antidote, herbs, hallucinations. Use these words in your comment to give her an added boost on Tuesday, Nov 10th, at http://riverfairchild.blogspot.com/

Please help Lady Cathrina of Canterbury to brew a magic potion...
Copy and Paste this sentence and go to  http://riverfairchild.blogspot.com/ and place it in the comment section!! Hurry!!!

To vanquish these hallucinations I need an antidote. Herbs of coriander and rosemary will do the trick.

L.G. Keltner's

Cover Reveal

I Love this Cover!!!



Title: Self-Help 101 or: How I Learned to Take Over the World Through Tolerating My FamilyAuthor: L.G. KeltnerGenre: Holiday/HumorLength: 27,000Cover Art: L.G. KeltnerRelease Date: December 1, 2015

Blurb:
Dani Finklemeier has decided to write a self-help book about how to take over the world, but she’s not sure where to start.  After all, she’s only seventeen and looking for a better way to make money than babysitting.  She buys a self-help book that promises to teach her how to write a self-help book in the hope of getting the job done.
Not that it’ll be easy to get any work done this holiday season.  Her family is staying at the house for Christmas, and fights break out almost immediately.  Dani also has to deal with the fallout from an unexpected kiss with her best friend Seth and the feelings that go along with it.  On edge around her family and unsure how to interact with the one person she’s trusted with everything in the past, she can only take what inspiration she can from the crazy circumstances surrounding her and see what happens.
One way or another, it should be an interesting holiday.

Bio:
L.G. Keltner spends most of her time trying to write while also cleaning up after her crazy but wonderful kids and hanging out with her husband.  Her favorite genre of all time is science fiction, and she’s been trying to write novels since the age of six.  Needless to say, those earliest attempts weren’t all that good. 
Her non-writing hobbies include astronomy and playing Trivial Pursuit.
You can typically find L.G. lurking around her blog, on Twitter, or on her Facebook page.

onto a special government unit responsible for monitoring 
the psychic population. She’s offered a job where 
she can use her psionic gifts to help people.

Stranded on earth over a hundred years ago, Liam of Shria is searching for a metal needed to repair his ship when he finds Dina inside an alien escape pod and narrowly saves her after she trips the alarm.
As the mystery and their relationship deepens, Liam helps Dina learn the truth behind her abilities while uncovering a plot to rebuild an ancient weapon, exposing dangerous secrets about the alien presence on earth that may change the future forever.

When not writing, she spends her time reading, observing pop culture, playing with her two dogs, and working on various charitable projects in her home state of New Jersey.

Excerpt “I had a feeling I’d see you again,” the voice called.Dina looked around the wooded area, feeling confused for a moment. It seemed familiar. Across the marsh, Liam was leaning against a tree, casually dressed, hair slightly less shaggy than it had been last time, hands shoved in his skinny jeans. A light mist lingered over the grass, a taste of salt in the air. How did she get here? “What?”“Didn’t think it would be this soon,” he replied with a shrug. The Gut surrounded her. She didn’t remember coming here, yet she was in the Bay Hook. Solid ground beneath her feet and the stench she breathed in, all real. “Why, uh . . . did you come back?”“The real question is why did you call me here?”“What are you talking about? You were already here, and I didn’t call. I don’t even have your number.”“Want it?” he asked, smirking, then shook his head. “No, wait . . . oh. Uninhibited speech, foggy backdrop, extra flirty. I get it.”“Get what?”“We’re dreaming. You’re asleep right?”“No,” she spat, spreading her arms, twisting in place. She pulled a cattail-punk out of the ground and shook it at him. “We’re in the Hook, hello, don’t you see the trees? Can’t you smell the marsh?”“You must have been thinking about me, which is normal, frankly, given the circumstances. But how the hell are you keeping me here?”“I’m not doing anything.”“Dina, did both your parents have psionic abilities?”“Only my father, why?”“Curious,” he said, moving toward her, gray eyes sweeping up and down. “What about his parents, either of them?”“I don’t know. What does it matter?”“People don’t normally share dreams. You’re strong—”“Why does everyone keep saying that?” Dina threw her hands up in the air and walked away. “Who cares if I am or not? There’s some dude out there burning up people, and I don’t have time to tramp around the swamp with E.T.”“What did you say?”“Nothing. Doesn’t matter. I’m outta here.”“Wait, Dina,” he said, catching up and surpassing her. He grabbed both her arms to stop her. “You really are dreaming.”Everything around her was too real to be a dream. She felt the pressure of his fingers, even the sinking feeling of her feet on the soft ground. “So this isn’t the Gut, it’s a dream? Right, and you’re sharing it with me, sure.”“You’re amazing!” He laughed boyishly. “Even after all you’ve seen, you’re still questioning everything.”“Then prove it to me. Call me, here’s my number,” she said, mentally sending the digits to his head. Liam smiled at her. A sweet, sincere smile that made her smile back before shrugging.“Dina—”Her eyes popped open. The ceiling of her bedroom stared back. “Oh, what the hell?”Dina sat up, brow furrowed. She reached toward the nightstand for her phone. Was it going to ring? It had felt as if she had been there, standing in the grass with Liam. She shut her eyes, trying to bring the images back, but they were already fading. Had she just shared a dream with Liam?

#IWSG



http://www.insecurewriterssupportgroup.com/p/iwsg-sign-up.html
Join Alex J. Cavanaugh and a multitude of writer's in this monthly hop to help support one another!

Purpose: To share and encourage. Writers can express doubts and concerns without fear of appearing foolish or weak. Those who have been through the fire can offer assistance and guidance. It’s a safe haven for insecure writers of all kinds!

The co-hosts for November are:
Tyrean Martinson  Karen Walker  Denise Covey   Stephen Tremp  
It's been a busy month with my new release, and so far it's getting decent reviews. But it's only the beginning, next month I'll probably be singing the blues! Before the release I was antsy because people will again be reading and judging me.  My writing and stories are okay, but I'd like to climb over that okay barrier into the very good. I try to be proud of what I've accomplished thus far, although, those feelings of insecurity like to creep in. Especially when I'm working on a new manuscript and wondering where it's taking me. As writer's I believe we all strive to hone our craft to create a worthy tale. And if I stay on this path of publishing books, I hope my stories will entertain readers for years to come. 
Do you have insecurities this month?

#PrahConstantineBaryehReviews #romance #fantasy

We had such a difficult decision to make. All the books are awesome!!! We thank each and every author that participated!!! We hope to have another Event soon. And we look forward to reading & reviewing your wonderful books.
The Winner of the Book Choice Competition is:
Romance Writer in Training… 
Joanie wants to get her romances published but can't seem to get things right with her writing. She buys an antique bureau which the shopkeeper says has magic working through it. While using her new bureau, she begins to talk to the hero in her book, asking his advice on writing, all the while thinking it's her own imagination. She promises he can live in her home, eat at her table and sleep in her bed, if he helps her with her writing. She doesn't think he will actually knock on her door and insist she keep her promise. 
He’s made a wish… 
Theo has also bought a magic chest of drawers that brings him into Joanie's life. He wants to settle down with one woman, tired of shallow relationships, and Joanie seems like the perfect candidate if it weren’t for her insistence on getting rid of him. 

Against her will… 
The magic keeps on forcing them to live together and Joanie’s not happy. This is her first year alone and she’s been craving time to herself after looking after her younger siblings and an ailing aunt. Theo’s presence in her home, although unwanted, stirs up needs she’s suppressed for years. When they start to discover things about the magic and why it’s bringing them together, will Joanie recognize another type of magic at work? Will she succumb to the charm of Theo or will her need for breathing space pull them apart?

Cathrina's Review:

If you've read the author's wonderful blurb, then you know the story. 

When I began to read My Real Life Hero, I had to smile because as a writer, I can understand the frustration of our main character, Joanie. Trying to write an endearing romance with a handsome hero figure turns into a wish totally out of proportion. Especially when she sits down  at her new bureau, which the shopkeeper did warn her about the desks magic, and gives her more than she bargained for. 
When the attractive Theo arrives on the scene and insists that the couple is married and produces a marriage license, as the reader I was like huh?
But as I continued to read this unique novel I was taken by its magic
You will discover the why and the how the desk has special  magic which explains a lot. And then it's up to Joanie and Theo to make the magic happen.
My Real Life Hero is filled with steamy scenes that made my face flush and my breath hitch somewhat. You won't be disappointed.

Now Hop Over to Nana Prah and Empi Baryeh to read their reviews!!!
