You know how there are songs that make you think of people? These are some of the songs that I loved listening to while writing for the couples in Second of All:
Some Nights by Fun
Kryptonite by Three Doors Down
Hey Girl by Damian Marley
Fever by Peggy Lee
They Can’t Take that Away From Me by Louis Armstrong &Ella Fitzgerald
Locked out of Heaven by Bruno Mars
What do you think? Do you have any songs that make you think of these characters?

In case you missed it last night here is the link for the Giveaway for Second of All (due out in only 4 days!)
The giveaway ends tonight. I will announce the winners in the morning. RIGHT NOW! (LOL) You may see the winners on the right or at this link:
http://www.rafflecopter.com/rafl/display/c9b9690/
The first ten winners will receive a digital copy of First, I Love You by email.
Terri F. and Nikki O. will receive signed copies of First, I Love You and Second of All. The draw back is they will have to wait until next week for me to mail them out. The brightside? TWO FREE BOOKS!
🙂
A HUGE thank you to everyone that has entered especially since I have done ZERO promoting for it. It’s been crazy with family stuff and getting Second of All ready for publishing.
January 1st!!!!!! I can’t wait for your reactions.
*smooches*
And I HONESTLY can’t wait to find out what you think of Second of All!
Merry Christmas Eve Day (actually Merry Christmas to some of you!)
As promised I set up a Q&A at Goodreads with discussion topics and a link to the CyberParty at Facebook:
http://www.goodreads.com/group/show/87391-q-a-with-genevieve-dewey
The Q&A will run the entire month of January!
If you don’t like Goodreads here is the link to the Facebook Event for the Release of Second of All on NEW YEARS DAY:

1. Thank you to all my super awesome friends who helped spread the word about the Amazon sale of First, I Love You.
2. Thank you to all the people who entered the Goodreads Giveaway for First, I Love You, I will get the books out soon. We had this little pesky blizzard that closed I-80 so that’s put me a bit behind.
3. There is still one more opportunity to get your hands on a free copy of First, I Love You and that is to enter the giveaway to the right. Please click on the Reading Romances widget and check out all the fabulous other giveaways going on Christmas week!
4. Only 12 days left until New Years Day and the release of Second of All! I sure hope you love it. Or at least passionately like it. LOL
Other than my middle son’s 7th birthday and the possible end of the world… naw I’m kidding.
Anyhoo,
1. Starting Tuesday, December 18th until Thursday, December 20th, the Kindle version of First, I Love You will be ON SALE for only $.99!!! I’ll be tweeting like a fiend on those days promoting it. Your help would be appreciated but most importantly I hope to have your patience as I slightly spam your Twitter and Facebook feeds. 😛
2. Also on Thursday, December 20th, the Goodreads Giveaway of First, I Love You ends and then I will send out two free signed copies.
3. Also, also, ALSO on December 20th, I will start participating in the Christmas Giveaway at Reading Romances. I plan to give away 10 digital copies of First, I Love You in whatever format the winner chooses (Kindle, iBooks, Nook), and 2 lucky winners will get a signed paperback copy of BOTH First, I Love You and Second of All (after the January 1st release of course). You can click on the little flying books icon on the right to enter between the dates of December 20th to 27th.
4. We are also only two weeks away from the launch of Second of All. SO, after I get the FILY books in the mail I will start a Giveaway for Second of All only with a LOT more copies so I could use some help getting the word out to make such a giveaway successful. I will also start a Q&A on the Downey Trilogy after the release. Such things only work if I’m not talking to myself. *hint hint* *wink wink*
And in conclusion, a shout out to my super fantastic husband who got me these super swell planners to keep track of all these different projects AND my writing. He’s so… just really… wonderful. It must get exhausting dealing with my cluttered mind, but I called him when he was on a trip and I babbled and babbled and babbled about “and I need this and I need that and I just don’t know how to do this and that” and whine, whine, whine… and somehow he was able to translate this into normal people language and bring me home the EXACT thing I needed when I was sure such a thing didn’t exist.
Ummm…
Keeper!
Hope you all have a fantastic week!
*smooches*
So an update on your Valentine’s Day story…
Looks like of those of you who have voted so far, that you want more Dom&Kate from The Bird Day Battalion, with a couple wanting a new or a combo. It’s very true you will be getting plenty of Kiki&James and Tommy&Ginny (and even Mary&Mickey! for real!) in Second of All so that’s an easy choice. Unless there’s a big change in voting I plan on giving you a spicy (but still sweet and funny) dose of Dom&Kate but with a new couple thrown in there too. BUT you can still vote some more and if it changes I’ll just keep it for another holiday! I’m all about pleasing people. ;P
After the 14th I’ll close it. 😉
And also I can’t hardly believe Second of All is out in a month! (less than, if all goes well, I am hoping to have it be your New Years present)
THANK YOU for your continued support, you guys are all amazing! 😀
