I entered the So You Think You Can Write Contest
and I'm freaking out just a little bit about it ;).
A long time ago (more than a decade at this point), I sent an unsolicited manuscript pitch to Harlequin and received the coveted "request for full" reply. While that book ultimately was turned down (and rightfully so), that letter has been a driving factor in my continuing to write and write and write.
The contest at this stage requested a pitch (100 words or fewer) and the first chapter (5000 words or fewer). I did it. If I progress, I have to have the book finished by October 12 (which will be pushing it, but I can do it...I wrote the first drafts of the first six Highland Home books in six weeks). I want to progress. I want to WIN!!!!
Voting begins October 2, 2012, but you can read my submission (and all of the others as well) on the website.
I hope you'll check out First Sin is Vengeance. Feel free to let me know what you think and as always, clicking that little "like" button always helps.
Thanks for your support!

Want to read a chapter of a new book?
I'm wanting to enter a contest for Harlequin and I would love some feedback on the first chapter I want to use for the contest. Are you interested in reading such a thing? If so, let me know and I will send it to you. The book is young adult, paranormal with time travel.
Thanks!

Get your Highland Home eBooks Autographed!
Through the service, Kindlegraph, you can now get all your Highland Home eBooks (that's right, ebooks) autographed by me personally!
All you have to do is go here: http://www.kindlegraph.com/authors/shareinnc and choose which book you'd like to have me autograph. Be sure to include the name and any other information you'd like included in the inscription in the request.
And best of all? This service is FREE. The only thing it might cost you is if you have the autograph sent to your kindle using your kindle email, Amazon may charge a small delivery fee (you'll want to check your amazon account for that information). The autograph and the delivery to your regular email are always free.
Also, if you already have a PRINT copy of one of the books, you can still request an autograph and I will be happy to sign it for you! You'll get the same PDF file as anyone else who requests the service. Then you can either store it or print it out and put it in your print book.
Kindlegraph also keeps your autograph collection together for you so you can retrieve them whenever you like.
I hope you'll check out the service and request autographs for all the Highland Home series books.
