Day 6 – Advent Calendar and Kindle Contest!
Happy December 6th! The Kindle contest is still underway. Here's how it works: you nominate a friend/family member/coworker/etc. who you think needs a Kindle (tell us why they need/deserve one!) I'll be collecting entries until December 21st and then a winner will be chosen and the person nominated and the one who nominated them will both receive a Kindle! All you have to do to enter is comment on one of the Advent Calendar posts between now and then. But there are also daily giveaways of cool stuff too! Daily winners will be selected from that day's comments.
Yesterday's winner of a signed copy of The Lord is My Shepherd is Juana Andrade. Congratulations! To enter today's giveaway, just comment below. Today's goodie is some behind the scenes stuff about the Sweet Seasons series. Today's winner will receive a signed copy of The Summer of Cotton Candy. To read an excerpt from The Summer of Cotton Candy click here. Here's your goodie:
A lot of people ask me if there will be more Sweet Seasons books. The answer is still "maybe". The publisher has designed new covers for the existing books and might be releasing those covers soon. What publishers are basically interested in is numbers. If a series sells well enough the chances that it will continue go up dramatically. For those of you who've been patiently waiting, please be patient a little longer and help spread the word about these books. I can tell you that I've had the titles for the next four books picked out since I finished writing book 4. The next four books would be: The Summer of Rice Candy, The Fall of Candied Yams, The Winter of Candy Kisses, and The Spring of Rock Candy.
I do hope and dream to someday actually build The Zone theme park in reality. I've had some concept sketches made of the park and some of its key attractions. Here's my favorite, it's a sketch of The Atomic Coaster (which Referees call The Twirl and Hurl). 
And here is what the new cover of The Summer of Cotton Candy will look like if the publisher goes ahead and reissues it.
