With all the hospital dramas coming just days after I found out that Dark Country is a finalist in the Romance Writers of America RITA contest, I haven’t really had a chance to celebrate, yet! The night before I went into hospital, when Gordon and I were out for a light dinner in a restaurant in Sydney, I did contemplate a celebratory cocktail, but decided that alcohol in my system just before a medical procedure probably wasn’t a good idea, so I made do with apple juice instead, which, although lovely, is more everyday for me than special!<\/p>\n
Maybe G and I will have to organise a special dinner out later this week… especially since it’s his birthday this weekend \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
In the meantime, as the RITA nomination is drawing interest from readers here and overseas, but my books aren’t (yet) published in the US, I think a celebration giveaway is definitely in order! And, because I have some spare copies of the UK editions, there’ll be more than one chance to win \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
The prizes? Two<\/strong> winners will each receive signed copies of As Darkness Falls AND Dark Country; and two<\/strong> runners-up will receive a signed copy of Dark Country. <\/p>\n Who can enter? The giveaway is open to anyone on the planet, as long as a postal service delivers to you. <\/p>\n So, how to enter? Download the first chapter of Dark Country<\/a> and find the answers to the following two questions: Submit your answers, using the form below, before 11pm (Australian time) on Tuesday April 27 – which is 9am on the Tuesday morning, Eastern US time. But please, be fair, and only submit one entry per person!<\/p>\n I’ll draw the winners on Wednesday 28th, and notify them by email, as well as announcing on the blog.<\/p>\n The form does ask for your email address, but I promise that I do respect your privacy, and will only use your email to notify you if you are one of the winners. I will not sell, giveaway, publish, or use your email address for any other purpose.<\/p>\n Edited 28 April – This contest is now closed.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" With all the hospital dramas coming just days after I found out that Dark Country is a finalist in the Romance Writers of America RITA contest, I haven’t really had a chance to celebrate, yet!
