CLAN - Five Values of Clan
Did you enjoy the Intro Blog Tour for CLAN? Each of my author friends revealed an illustration of the Five Values of Clan that I drew. I am now revealing the final illustration!
Unity. Above all else, Clans value the concept of Unity.
"...in Clan, we rely on each other. We’re cogs operating the machinery of our civilization. What another does reflects everyone else. We, individually, represent the whole at all times; we are cells in one body. This is why you trust the Clan next to you without having to know anything about him." --Luge, from CLAN
The other Values:
What do you think? Did you like the artwork? Got a favorite? You can win all five of the illustrations in postcard form!
Enter below for a chance to win the signed postcard set!
a Rafflecopter giveaway

News Week - 11/25/13 - A Week of Giving Thanks!
This week:
Royalties earned thus far for CLAN (both eBook and paperback) will go to Holiday Stockings for Homeless Children. All royalties earned this Thanksgiving week until 11/28 midnight PST will be donated. I have spent time in the homeless shelter as a child and was very grateful when presents were donated to my family--without the donations, we wouldn't of had Christmas. It's important for me that I can help out through something that I created and worked hard on.
Also I want to say thank you to everyone who's been so supportive and helped spread the word about CLAN. Thank you very much!
Last Week:
CLAN was selected for Best Books: Kirkus Stars & Recommendations!
Candace reviewed CLAN! Check out her review here.
Author Courtney Summers interviewed me.
Author Kristi Helvig interviewed me.
Book Blitz began.
Winners of the Clan trailer reveal giveaway were posted! If you didn't win in this raffle--no worries! There's still the Intro Blog Tour raffle going on!
Stay tuned for December! Blog tours continues as usual!
