First I Love You

Did you know? First, I Love You (Downey #1) will be getting a new cover! #ASMSG |

At the end of this month, I and a few fellow authors/bloggers I coerced into doing my bidding, will reveal a brand spanking NEW & SEXY cover for First, I Love You. If you follow my Facebook page you will know this already! If you don’t, good gravy, why not? You are missing out on the Man Candy (occasional Woman Candy), the #RandomGen rambles, and the GIVEAWAYS!

 

ALL MONTH I will be having fun contests, games and giveaways so I can do something with my excitement. Gen twirls, you win things. Sound fabulous? 😉

 

Giveaway #1 JUST ended today. A signed copy of First, I Love You AND Second of All goes out to Destiny Best. All that contestants had to do was share my Facebook page on their wall. Really super simple, huh? Two free paperback books!

Giveaway #2 will be announced on #MadForMobstersMonday! Ahh, this one will be super fun! I can’t wait!

In the mean time, I sure could use some help from all my Downey Dames & Dudes in drumming up LIKES for my Facebook page, FOLLOWS on Twitter and EMAIL subscribers to this blog. Liking, following, and subscribing assures people they won’t miss out on any of the prizes and swag to come!

 

HAVE A FANTASTIC FRIDAY!!!

*SMOOCHES*

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!

Bringing Spring in with a bang! #ASMSG |

Ok, so this Thursday (why does everything always seem to happen on a Thursday?) there are four things I’d like to share with you and none of them are the Spring Equinox. ;P

1) As previously posted I’ll be putting up a post in the morning with the cover of Milly Taiden’s newest romance Wolf Protector. YAY! Also, if you get a chance, pop on over to her website MillyTaiden.com and help her get her likes back that Facebook stole from her. I cherish each and every one of my meager 368 likes, I can only imagine how mad I’d be losing the numbers she had.

2) My little bit of Flash Fiction (500 words!) will go live at The Iron Writer challenge. I’ll remind you Thursday (meaning bug you) to please, pretty please, with sugar on top, go there and vote. You don’t have to vote for mine.

3) If you live near Cozad, NE I’ll be “teaching” a free class at 9:30, Noon, and 2:30 at the Cozad Development Corporation on using Social Media to help grow your business. Obviously, I am not an expert on that subject; I will just be sharing my experiences using Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest and so forth to engage with people. My aim is to make it seem less daunting to those who are completely new to it. And it really isn’t scary. It’s fun! Right? 😉

4) In the evening in Kearney, NE I’ll be having another author signing at Studio 3 Art Studio. Why at an art studio? My good friend and artist Pat Jones will be having an Open House there and we’d both love to have you trickle in and out and just hang with us from 7-9pm!

5) I am going to be making a new cover for First, I Love You. I’m already kicking around some ideas with some fabulous people, but I am thinking of making a poll so you, the readers, can weigh in as well. For instance, should the cover have something with Chicago on it like it did before? Something with a person (like Kiki’s silhouette)? The letters Mickey Downey wrote that the title is from? So forth…

6) I hope you have a fantastic week!
