We’ll see how my DSL works now.  I’m so very frustrated with this!

I have a little bit of news, but wait, today is about the winners of the Wing Slayer Hunter Trading Cards, not me. So we’ll wait for another day to talk about my news

Okay I did a random number pick for the five winners and here they are:

Comment # 3 Labrat11

Comment # 4 B.E.  Sanderson

Comment # 5 Julie

Comment # 2 PamK

Comment # 1 Viki S

Congrats to the winners! Please email me at Jenniferlyonbooks@gmail.com with your mailing addresses and I’ll get the cards in the mail to you next week.

Everyone have a great day!

I forgot to give away some trading cards here on the blog.  So lets do it! I’ll give away five sets of trading cards to five winners. There are five trading cards in each set, featuring Axel, Sutton, Phoenix, Key and Ram.

I know that not everyone is interested in the cards and that’s fine. If we have less than five comments, everyone wins If we have more, I’ll do a random pick.

If you are interested just answer this question in the comments:

Who would you rather take to your high school reunion, a hot vampire or a sexy werewolf?

Contest runs until Wednesday, May 2, 2012 at noon pacific time. Winners will be announced on Thursday, May 3, 2012.

The winner of the signed copy of ETERNAL CAPTIVE by Laura Wright, book mark and key ring mint holder is:

VIKI!

Viki send me your mailing address at Jenniferlyonbooks@gmail.com or Jenapodaca@aol.com and I’ll get the book out to you soon.

Next is a Huge Witchy Congrats to Kate Carlisle for hitting #15 on the New York Times list with her latest Bibliophile Mystery, ONE BOOK IN THE GRAVE. Let’s all toast Kate with Appleitnis!

And that brings me to my Question of the Day. Does the fact that a book (or author) hit the New York Times or USA Today list influence your book buying decision in any way?

Reading all the comments has been a blast! I could  NEVER have picked a winner, so I used the Random Number Generator to choose.  Every winner is announced by comment number and name. You can check the comment number in the comments.  The comment box shows the number in the upper left hand corner.  Okay let’s get started!

The Winner of BLOOD MAGIC is Comment Number 107 Amy Z!

The Winner of SOUL MAGIC is Comment Number 71 Ren Puspita

The Winner of NIGHT MAGIC is Comment Number 60 Kathy

The Winner of SINFUL MAGIC is Comment Number 95 Nancy Ambrose

The Grand Prize Winner of all four books is Comment Number 39 Alyssa

Winners, please email me at Jenniferlyonbooks@gmail.com with your mailing address, and let me know if you would like the book(s) personalized or just signed.  If you have any trouble with that email, you can go to the contact page of my website here and use the email box there and it should go through.

To everyone else, thank you so much for visiting and entering!

SINFUL MAGIC is on sale tomorrow! And the blog will return to normal

My weekend was pretty quiet. I did finally read THE HUNGER GAMES by Suzanne Collins. I liked it and see why the series is so popular! How was your weekend?

I bought two copies of my friend and critique partner, Laura Wright’s book ETERNAL HUNGER. I had intended to keep one for myself and give one away here on the blog.

Last weekend, I saw Laura at our local RWA meeting, and was surprised and very touched that she gave me a copy of the book. So…I now have two copies of ETERNAL HUNGER to give away! And Laura graciously signed them!

This is Laura and me at the meeting.

She’s the cute on in the glasses!

All you have to do leave a comment telling me why you love vampires or paranormal books, and I’ll put you in the drawing. I’ll announce the two winners on Monday.

Good Luck!

You all did a fabulous job of comments on whether wizard should get me a puppy.  Sadly, NOTHING is swaying him!

NOTHING!

Not even this puppy–this little 8 week old Doxie…how cute is he?

Evidently NOT cute enough for Wizard. I sent The Wiz this pic and what did he say? “I don’t like his nose.”

His nose?????  What’s wrong with his nose? It’s an adorable nose!

But you know what cheers me up? Picking two winners to send THE BEAST WTIHIN to! Okay, I didn’t actually pick the winners, Random.org did.  And now, no more stalling or cute puppy pictures! The two winners of a copy of THE BEAST WITHIN Anthology are:
