DSP Christmas in July Celebration! - His Salvation only 99c! (GIVEAWAY)

Today is officially Christmas! Well... in July at least! :)  Dreamspinner Press is having a HUGE sale this month to celebrate Christmas in July. As you can see from the banner, all holiday stories are 25% off while everything else is 20% off! Great deal, right? Well they've sweetened the deal by making several stories each day only .99c and today is when you can get my book His Salvation for only .99c! If you haven't read it, head over to pick it up now. Every day they have new stories for .99c so make sure to check into the site each day for some great reads to add to your list. 

Since 2010 I have been blessed with the opportunity to live out my dream as a writer and have had multiple novels and short stories published. It's a very humbling and very amazing thing to experience. Every time a new contract comes or the next cover is shown to me, I can't quite stifle the giddy 'child on Christmas morning' feeling I get. When I see how many people have read my stories and even more so the ones who loved them it makes me want to pinch myself to see if it's real. Every day I spend with my readers on Facebook or Twitter, or the ones who take the time out of their busy days to email me, is like receiving a new gift. I am also grateful for my health, my family, my every day job (even though it takes away from my writing), my furbaby's health, and waking up each day to know I get to experience them all over again.

(not the official cover yet!)

And I have been blessed once more this year with another upcoming novel from Dreamspinner Press. The follow up to Chasing Seth featuring the ever loveable Nick Cartwright and the arrogant ass Thayne Whitedove. Look for Forgiving Thayne release information in the coming months. Due out in Sept/Oct this year!

  

To offer my own Christmas in July gift, I am having a mini give away. I want to know what you're grateful for in your life. Have you accomplished your dream? Do you have a wonderful family? What about a great job you go to every day? What makes your life worth getting up every morning and facing each new day with a beautiful smile and a happy heart? Tell me in the comments below, on my Facebook Page (LINK), or Tweet me on Twitter (twitter link) to enter! No restrictions on country either. So anyone can enter. You must post your comment by no later than 11:59:59 pm Eastern Standard Time July 31st to be eligible to win.

 

What's the present? Well it wouldn't be a present if it wasn't a surprise, right? ;)  I promise you'll love it!

Happy Christmas in July, everyone! Gift yourself by checking out the .99c month long deals over at Dreamspinner Press. There's still six days left in the month. ;)

His Salvation Blog Tour Grand Prize Winner!

What a ride! There were 109 comments across the 2 months of blog posts! I'm so excited that there were that many entries into the Grand prize drawing and that there were so many participants! Thank you to everyone who commented and followed me through the tour. Despite how hard it can be sometimes to come up with a post every week, I am sad to see it end. :( This is my first time doing a blog tour as well as a prize give away of this magnitude. It's been an interesting and informative journey, and I hope to have the opportunity to do another in the near future with another new release.


Unfortunately there can only be one winner each week and this week's is a very very lucky lady indeed. The Grand Prize drawing includes a special tote bag with three of my DSP covers on it, four swag charms, two paperback copies of my books, a bookmark, and two posters. It also included a name brand e-reader, either a Kindle or Nook, OR if the winner already has an e-reader then they would be able to choose an equivalent gift card. What a haul, right?!

To keep it fair for everyone I took the name of every commenter throughout the tour and placed them into a spreadsheet in the order of which they commented. Then I took the total count (109) and popped the number into Random.Org and randomly generated a number. I am including a snapshot of these to show the number pulled and after the announcement below will post the shot of Excel showing the person at that number. I really do wish I could give something to everyone who participated, but I'm afraid right now that isn't possible. :-/ 

Time for me to stop procrastinating and give the people on the edge of their seats what they've been waiting for. LOL. Drum roll please!

The winner of my first blog tour Grand Prize drawing is... Patricia Nelson! Congratulations, Patricia! Please email me at jrloveless @ gmail (dot) com to confirm your preference of gift card or e-reader as well as the color of the swag charms you'd like to receive. Thank you for participating every week and for following the tour as I posted. :)

Also, thank you to everyone out there who took the time to read my posts. The number of page views were higher than the comments so I know there were a lot more readers out there. Don't think just because you didn't comment I wouldn't recognize you! :D  I am grateful to everyone for supporting me and encouraging me just by being there, whether vocally or silently.

This is the official close of the His Salvation Blog Tour. I am sadface. :(

Signing off with lots of hugs and kisses,

J.R.

This Week's Blog Post is Up! Change of Venue BTW!
