The grand prize will be 2 bookmarks, 1 signed paperback copy of THE MAYFAIR MOON and a sterling silver Mayfair Moonstone pendant necklace.

Yay! I got my proof yesterday of the hard copy version of THE MAYFAIR MOON and am glad to say that everything looks great and I’ve approved it for distribution! It should be available on Amazon within the next 5-7 days for $9.99. Of course, you can get the Kindle version cheaper, or even for FREE if you’re an Amazon Prime Member and take advantage of the Lending Library.

Also, on my Book Blog Tour (March 19-23) hosted by A Tale of Many Reviews, I’ll be offering up as part of the Grand Prize, a sterling silver ‘Mayfair Moonstone’ charm necklace , so be sure to visit their site for full details and your chance to win! I’ll also include in that Grand Prize a hard copy version of the book and other goodies.

Onto other news: I’m happy to announce that my not-so-young-adult novel, DIRTY EDEN, will likely be published by the end of February! I’m really looking forward to seeing what you all think of that one. It’s COMPLETELY different from THE MAYFAIR MOON in so many aspects and let’s just say I don’t hold anything back . If you like dark and gritty adult humor, unconventional views and strange, creepy alternate realities, then you might like DIRTY EDEN.

I released THE MAYFAIR MOON on January 7th and I’m happy to say that in just 17 days, I’ve had a pretty good response so far. :-) After about the fifth day I decided to put the eBook up for free on Amazon for Kindle and I did it for 2 days, which generated close to 1,000 downloads. THE MAYFAIR MOON climbed up the rankings ladder (in the Free Kindle/Fiction/Juvenile Fiction category) as high as #36, surpassing a few traditionally published novels (Harlequin Teen). Of course, I knew that ranking would completely disappear after the FREE 2-Day period was over, but that’s OK because I did it simply to generate interest and help give my book some exposure. The ratings and reviews, although few, have been great as well, both on Amazon and Goodreads, so I’m really excited about that. Though, I could definitely use some more ratings/reviews because those are what helps your book sell and get noticed.

Also, I’ve already had one book blog review and even my first author interview over at Mina Burrows’ blog ‘Books for Paranormal & Mystic Minds’ – she’s been great! AND I have a book blog tour coming up in March, hosted by the wonderful people over at A Tale of Many Reviews. So, anyone out there runs a book blog and would like participate in the tour for THE MAYFAIR MOON, follow that link and sign up!

I’m in the process right now of publishing a physical copy of THE MAYFAIR MOON and I can’t wait! Soon, it’ll be available for Kindle AND for anyone out there who don’t yet have an eReader, or who just prefer a book they can hold and read.
