It’s Pin The Tale On The Writer Wednesday!

First, I Love You Pre-New Cover Reveal Giveaway #3 is a little different because this time the prize is ME!

Ahhh, that came out a bit wrong.

What I mean is, the prize is that YOU–the fan–get to decide what I write! For the winner, I will write a bit of Flash Fiction (500-1000 words) about whatever you choose, maybe a Kiki & James outtake from First, I Love You? Or when Tommy was little? Maybe some Dom&Kate? OR maybe something totally original on a different topic entirely.

YOU DECIDE!

How often can you say you got to determine what an author wrote?

Here’s how it will work:

Click on the Rafflecopter giveaway here or on the sidebar (4/10-4/13) and choose an entry option:
a) Follow this blog by email
b) Like my Facebook Page
c) Follow me on Twitter
d) Tweet About this Giveaway
e) Post “Genevieve Dewey sends her love” on Literati Literature Lovers Facebook Page
(https://www.facebook.com/LiteratiLiteratureLovers)

The winner will be chosen Saturday (4/13) midnight by their random generator (hint: if you do more than one it weights the ranking). Whoever wins will have 24 hours to decide the topic (In other words by Sunday the 14th, midnight) and post it here, on Facebook, or a direct message.

I will post the Flash Fiction by the end of the day Wednesday the 17th.

Sound fun? I hope so! I can’t wait!

HOLY COW! Downey Trilogy fans are the best fans EVER! #ASMSG |


Guess what?! As some of you know I am in the middle of working on getting First, I Love You (Downey #1) a facelift in the form of a super sexy new cover after which I am hoping to go on a promoting frenzy. That, and I’ve been trying to write on Third Time’s The Charm (Downey #3). Anyway, this makes for occasionally stressed, slightly frazzled Gen. So today, when I got this in my inbox from someone who recently read First, I Love You, I swear it was like ambrosia for the soul! Holy cow, I adore the fact this scene meant enough to her that she took the time to make something! Some of you may know I have been inclined to make my own fan art for stories that have captured my imagination, so to think someone else did that for something *I* wrote is… is….. Hell, I’m speechless with gratitude.

 

So tell me, how awesome is this?

THANK YOU, Rosette!

The journey’s half the fun!


So let’s go together!
Sometimes we get this sense of urgency;
write, promote, sell, edit, teach, create, train, motivate, do, do, DO!
There is a great compliment in knowing
people are waiting on your next piece of work,
but, don’t forget to take a deep breath,
look around,
smile at your companions,
and enjoy the journey!

“Equality Before The Law.”


A little about me and my beliefs.

Nebraska has a motto: “Equality before the law.” When discussing this with our children, my husband and I like to remark on the many facets of that simple statement. It can mean all human beings should be seen as equal in rights when applying the law. It can mean law makers should emphasize equality of people before the blind use of a law (meaning equal rights should trump an archaic piece of legislation). It can mean, simply, all people with legal standing should have equal access to all legal rights. Even more broadly applied, all human beings of all ages legally recognized as citizens should be seen as equally entitled to the protection, benefits, and adjudication of the law.

It is not just a saying, it is a way of thinking:

All human beings should have the same rights so long as the application of their rights do not enfringe upon the rights of others, and when deciding a dispute, all efforts should be made to ensure ALL human rights are equal before the law.

I’m married, heterosexual, and monogamous. I do not believe my right to practice this is in any way infringed upon by those who are not heterosexual and would like to be monogamously recognized by the State in a legal marriage. Religiously, my beliefs are in no way threatened by those who do not believe or practice the same things I do, because they are not forcing me to abandon my beliefs or restrict my legal right to practice/believe them.

Therefore, equality before the law means, if some one is asking for legal standing, and giving them legal right to share property rights and pay taxes in certain brackets in no way affects my rights, then it should be recognized as such.

This is my opinion, and I certainly respect the opinons of others to disagree morally/religiously, I simply choose to abide by the rule:

Equality before the law.

Sparkle! Sparkle!

#ASMSG COVER REVEAL!!! Check out Wolf Protector by @MillyTaiden! Smexy!


Time for another cover reveal for a smexy new Milly Taiden romance!

MT_Wolf Protector1

~~~

WOLF PROTECTOR by Milly Taiden

~~~~

A woman with a secret…
The Federal Paranormal Unit is an elite squad of supernaturals dedicated to solving missing persons cases. Erica’s gift allows her a special connection with the crime, but it comes at a deep personal cost… Until now, she’s kept her gift a secret, even from the other members of the team. But this case will throw her together with Agent Trent Buchanan. He’s the object of her secret desires, but he’s also a cocky womanizer. She’d rather swim in shark-infested waters with a paper cut than admit she has feelings for him.

A man with one desire…
Wolf Shifter Trent wants Erica more than he’s ever wanted any woman. He’s spent years patiently waiting for her to admit that she wants him too. Working one-on-one in a race to find a serial killer, Trent’s patience and Erica’s resolve wear thin. When Trent discovers the truth about Erica, will he accept her for who she is? And can he protect her from the horrors that her gift brings?

A case that pushes them to the edge…
Erica will have to risk it all if she wants to stop the killer, and when she does, Trent may have to put his own life on the line to make sure his mate is protected…
