Beth Williamson’s Blog

My peeps over at Two Lips Reviews, Laura K and Tina, are celebrating their 2 year anniversary! And there’s fun to be had for everyone!

Here’s the scoop. There’s a scavenger hunt! I love finding clues, you know like in the National Treasure movies? Love ‘em!

Anyhoo, many authors are participating in the scavenger hunt and you need to find the anniversary icon on each of the participating authors’ sites. Hint: this blog post is NOT it. :)

The details are here.

I know I’m giving away a download of choice, and there’s a boatload of other prizes to be had!

Whatcha waiting for? Go play! You’ve got until September 30th to find all the hidden icons!

I finally sorted through everything I brought back from RT. Wow - I had no idea I brought back that much stuff! I have books for all the promo packs and treats galore.

So without further ado, here are the blog post winners…

Cathy M and Lori!

Woohoo!!! Congrats you two! Send me your snail mail addys to cowgirlbeth@gmail.com and I’ll get your big fat promo packs in the mail to you.

Don’t forget, if you didn’t win on my blog, my Sexy Spurs newsletter subscribers are going to get three prize packs of promo goodies when they enter my April contest. If you’re not a subscriber, you can sign up here!

Happy Friday y’all!

It’s almost vacation time… I’m headed to the beach in the morning. I cannot wait!

I’m bringing my laptop with me, but I can’t promise I’ll blog every day. Monday will still be the delicious eye candy post - no worries there, it’s already set to go.

I need some relaxation and down time so this is going to be fabulous. After I get back from the beach, I have another 4 days off before I have to head back to work.

Oh yeah, I’m doing a jig.

So… to give y’all something fun to do while I’m gone, I’m going to do a contest. Yep, yep, yep. I like to do that when I’m out of touch for a while.

Everyone who posts a comment on my blog between now and April 2 at midnight gets entered in a contest to win a download of choice. Worth playing for? (Man, I love that show Survivor - lol!)

Ready, set, post! Tell me your favorite vacation spot and why.

I am thrilled beyond measure to announce the official print release of Devils on Horseback: Nate.

This book was very special in that I started on a new journey with it. After writing about the Malloy family for so long, beginning anew with a different kind of family was a challenge. However, I think Nate’s book is a good one, with a lot of emotion and grit, a bit darker than the Malloy books.

For those of you that pre-ordered it, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. For those of you that might be thinking about ordering it, I can only say thank you.

After you get your copy, send me an e-mail to cowgirlbeth@gmail.com and I’ll send you a signed bookplate for it.
