FUN STUFF!

Hi Everyone! Welcome and many thanks to my new followers.
It’s been an exciting few months with all kinds of promotions and giveaways. Congratulations to all who won books or gift cards in the three Transcender Trilogy giveaways in March. I’m grateful to everyone who entered. More exciting things are coming up in April, beginning with a FREE promotion of TRANSCENDER Kindle edition on April 10 and 11! http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005DR94EI If you didn’t win in the giveaways, now’s your chance to get TRANSCENDER for free. Please let your friends know and anyone else who might enjoy the book! Tweets and Facebook posts are also greatly appreciated!
In addition, I wanted to take a few minutes to let you know that I’m revising my review policy somewhat. Up until now, I’ve had a fairly hard and fast rule not to review books in the same genre in which I write (i.e., YA paranormal fantasy). It just didn’t feel right reviewing my “competition,” so to speak. Lately, however, I’ve had a number of requests for reviews, some from authors whose work I admire, and I’ve been forced to reconsider my self-imposed rule. As a result, you will be seeing more reviews of YA books from me. Most of them will be 4 or 5 star reviews for two reasons (1) if a book doesn't sweep me up and carry me away within the first twenty pages or so, I usually set it aside for more interesting pursuits; and (2) I believe that every author who actually finishes a book and brings it to publication has poured his or her heart and soul into the work, and I have no desire to trash someone else’s baby simply because I personally wasn’t into it. I’ll leave that delicate task to the pros. The exception will be when a book has received an enormous amount of press and/or paid publicity and just doesn’t live up to the hype. Then I believe it’s fair to advise readers not to waste their money.
Again thanks for all your support! Be sure to get your free Kindle copy of TRANSCENDER starting tomorrow. Also, please take a minute to “like” my Facebook Author Page http://www.facebook.com/vickysavageau... and follow me on Twitter https://twitter.com/savagevicky I appreciate it!
