WHEN THE KIRKUS GODS SMILE UPON YOU

I’ll admit it. Kirkus scares me. Even though I’ve gotten amazing emails from people who read ARCs of my book and went out of their way to tell me how much they loved it, I was so nervous about what was coming my way from Kirkus. Knowing that they are notoriously tough, I’d prepared myself for the worst. And then I saw the review. I’m still pinching myself over their assessment of BURN OUT. Every author gets some bad reviews—it’s just part of the game—but to start out with a review like this on my debut novel feels pretty amazing. I think there are so many ups and downs to being a debut author, and it’s important to celebrate the good rather than focus on the negative.  Today, I’m celebrating the good. And congrats to Shelly Hammond who won the BURN OUT “I Heart Swag Giveaway” prize pack! Don’t forget there’s still time to win the last ARC of BURN OUT on Goodreads!

Hi Kristi,
I'm a big fan of yours and am hoping to win your new book. Can you tell me how to enter the Pot of Gold giveaway? There's nothing to click on or to put your info. in. At least not from my Kindle. Thanks!
Kim

Kristi Helvig Hi Kim--thanks. So maybe try entering from your computer and see if works that way. Also, you can enter on my Goodreads page to win the ARC of BURN OUT, but you should also try for the Kindle too! Good luck! :)
