Birthdays and other announcements

So, Leigh's was yesterday, mine is Aug.25 (she's a Leo, but I'm a Virgo, haha!). Last year I celebrated with my first post on Serial Central. This year I'd like to do a Birthday Challenge like Leigh. So here's my wish: I now have 37 subscribers. If by Aug.25 I reach 40 (or more) I'll host a giveway.

Leave a comment on that day and one lucky winner will have a Smashwords coupon for a free download of one of my 3 novels (his/her choice) – value 4.99$. I'll be wandering the blogosphere that week (Aug.20 @ Joleene's, Aug.24 @ JC's), so make sure to get back here on The Day. And tell your friends, if I can't get 3 more people to subscribe to this blog, you'll get a less valuable prize – one of my 99cents works (you can choose between erotica and adult fantasy).

Also in October I'll get back the Linky Saturdays and put the WoW Saturdays away until next summer, so I decided that the Love Story With will be with… authors. So on Fridays I'll have an author's spotlight. Except so far I interviewed only authors whose books I've read. Starting October, if you're a writer, you can have a Friday Author Spotlight, i.e. an interview with yours truly. Published or unpublished won't matter. And if I already interviewed you, I can interview you again, especially if the previous interview is one year old (Mickey, Prue, I'm talking to you! ), I'll ask different questions so you can tell us how things have changed (if they changed) for you in the meantime.

So if you'd like to be part of this shiny new feature for the fall, contact me at the usual creativebarbwire (at) gmail (dot) com – remember, published or unpublished!

One last thing: Lulu upgraded my shop… so I have an Author Spotlight over there too (hence the name of the new Love Story With, haha)!
