Three more questions to go!
November 24th, 2007

Are you following along with the Devils on Horseback: Nate scavenger hunt? There are six questions total, with three more to go. And they’re going to get harder as the days pass.

After the last question on Monday, then send all six answers to cowgirlbeth@gmail.com on Monday by midnight. Tuesday morning (release day!!) I pick a lucky winner for the gorgeous gift basket.

Okay, today’s question is below.

Question #4: What was Nate’s rank in the Army? Hint: It’s in an excerpt.

Two more questions after today as I get ready for the print release of Devils on Horseback: Nate. I hope y’all are having fun and have a great Saturday!

Black Friday
November 23rd, 2007

Today in the U.S. is Black Friday - called that because it’s the kick-off of the official Christmas shopping season. We take our shopping seriously and folks have been known to have smack-downs to grab that last Tickle Me Elmo.

I, however, love to shop anyway and today is no different. I’m off to an outlet center (steering clear of the mall, Walmart, Target and Best Buy) to have a day of camaraderie and sisterhood with my mom and my big sister. I plan on having lots of fun!

Now, onto today’s contest question, are you ready?

Question #3: What is the name of the man Elisa holds responsible for her family’s troubles as well as the man who hires Nate and his friends? Hint: It’s in two excerpts.

Happy Friday y’all! *grabs her sneakers, purse and shopping bag*

Happy Thanksgiving!
November 22nd, 2007

Here in the U.S., it’s Thanksgiving day and I’m off to my mom’s for Thanksgiving dinner. Have a wonderful, amazing day. I’m thankful for each and every moment of my life, including all of you.

However, I’m still playing the scavenger hunt game for the faboo gift basket. Here is today’s question:

Question #2: What is the name of the company Nate and his friends form? Hint: it’s in an excerpt.

Six Days and Counting… Scavenger Hunt Ahoy!
November 21st, 2007

It’s day three of my mini-vacation and I’m enjoying the time off, not writing as much as I must, but nontheless enjoying the time off. It’s six days until the print release of Devils on Horseback: Nate so I thought in honor of my “mini” vacation and its release, I’d have a “mini” blog contest.

Whatcha think?

All right then! Let’s have a mini-contest… A scavenger hunt!! Each day I’m going to post a question about Devils on Horseback: Nate. You can find the answers on my website, my blog, or on Samhain’s website. The first question is below.

Send me your answers by midnight on Monday, November 26th to cowgirlbeth@gmail.com.

On Tuesday, release day, I’ll post the winner’s name, chosen at random from the correct entries. What do you win? A gorgeous gift basket. It has an autographed copy of The Reward, note cards, potpourri, a candle and a bunch of other treats.

Question #1: What is the name of the town in Devils on Horseback: Nate?

Keep your answers and send them to me on Monday, November 26th! Good luck!

Tooting my own horn
November 20th, 2007

So, next Tuesday is the official print release for Devils on Horseback: Nate. I’ve got an ad in the January issue of Romantic Times magazine.

Guess what?

I got 4 1/2 stars!! Oh yeah, baby! I’m so excited - Nate is a very special book, the first in a new series and it means a lot to me.

Thank you to Donna Brown, the reviewer. Here’s a snippet of the review:

“This rugged tale, the first in the Devils on Horseback series, has everything — danger and deception, laughter and love — in generous doses…The action is hot, but the sex is hotter.”

I’m feeling a hundred feet tall!!

I’m also off work for the week and trying to get Kincaid’s story written and finish Jake’s edits. Hope y’all are having a fantastical week!
