I appreciate readers I don't even have yet
Over at the Samhain Cafe, readers and writers hang out and socialize, but we want to do something special to let our readers know how much we love them.
So, July 10-16, we'd like for you to log in to the Samhain Cafe and check out all the excerpts, contests and free prizes we'll be giving away. It's important that our readers always feel connected, so here's our chance to express our gratitude to them.
Over 30 authors have signed up to participate in this event. Each day is given over to a specific sub-genre, so if there's one that appeals to you, come by and read some excerpts. Maybe you'll find a new favorite author or a new must-buy book!
Monday: Mystery/Suspense/Thriller
Tuesday: SciFi/Fantasy/Futuristic
Wednesday: Paranormal -- I'LL BE POSTING AND GIVING AWAY A PRIZE!
Thursday: Historical/Western
Friday: Contemporary/Comedy -- I'LL BE POSTING AND GIVING AWAY ANOTHER PRIZE!
Saturday and Sunday are our Reader Blitz days with scheduled chats and lots of giveaways! I'll be chatting on Sunday from 6-7pm EST and giving away yet more stuff.
By the way, that's 5pm Central, 4pm Mountain, 3pm Pacific, 11pm GMT and God knows what time it'll be in Australia. I can never remember that conversion.
All events will take place at the Samhain Cafe. It's a busy group, so you might want to go digest.
See you there!

Looks like you're going to be busy.
Congrats on the upcoming novella.
Wonderful idea!
Yes, Ivan. It's time to start the push -- it's just over a month until release day!
Thanks Bernita. Some of our great authors thought this up in response to the recent brou-ha-ha. I think it's a great plan and will hopefully draw some new readers out of lurk to play with us.

I've been thinking of subbing something to Samhain. I'll have to check out their cafe.
Absolutely, Zinnia! Surf the Coming Soon pages, too, to get an idea of what's coming up as well as their backlists. And run down the View By Author page to see if you find some familiar names.
