Happy New Year everyone!
There's much to look forward to in 2020. For one thing, THE LIBRARY OF LEGENDS hits bookstores in the spring (Canada: April 28, USA: May 12) and I'm currently working with my publishers on schedules for marketing activities. More to come on that.
But -- does everyone know there's a Goodreads giveaway for the ARC (advance reading copy) of THE LIBRARY OF LEGENDS? It runs until January 27, 2020 and 100 (one-hundred) copies are up for grabs so the odds are pretty good for winning one.
As for blogs, I'm embarking on a project to put my family stories back online. They got lost during a website migration some time ago, but I found them on a hard drive recently. Many of these stories have made their way into my novels, so over the next 22 weeks some of you can have fun identifying which ones went into which novel. Here's the first such blog, which is more of an introduction: When We Lived in Still Waters.
I also blogged this piece, which you should consider a public service announcement on behalf of all authors. I belong to a group called the Tall Poppy Writers and some of us were listing the things readers can do to support an author they like. It turned out that except for actually buying the book, none of these suggestions cost any money. See what you think of 15 Ways to Help an Author.
