Three BIG Fiction Winners!

Starting today, we're switching back to two prize sponsors per month on the LDS Fiction/LDS Fiction Review blogs.

In order to do that, I need to give away the four books that have been posted as sponsors all through September. (I had planned to give them away one a week but, well, you know...)

However, only three people commented on the LDS Fiction/LDS Fiction Review blogs. So, I'm giving away the first three books and saving Altared Plans to give away the end of October.

So here we go!




Prize #1

Recovering Charles

by Jason F. Wright
(Donated by LDSP)

And the winner is:

Tarmy!






Prize #2

Winds of Hope

by Anita Stansfield
(Donated by Jennie Hansen)

Couple of Things

A few housekeeping types of things for you to be aware of. . .

1. I've been having a lot of trouble with Hotmail lately. I am unable to open and/or reply to some of your e-mails. Also, some of you have complained about not getting e-mails from me, when I've sent and re-sent them.
   
   I've set up an alternate address: ldspublisher [at] gmail [dot] com.
   
   I'll probably eventually switch over to the gmail address and close the hotmail account but it will take me some time to replace all those links on my sites. So in the meantime, you can try me at either address.
   
   
2. Did you notice I'm twittering? (Check the pink and blue at the top of the right side sidebar, below all the ads.) I decided to do this after getting a couple of invites from readers. Looks like fun.
   
   Don't expect a twitter everyday, but I will be letting you know what I'm reading and a few other tidbits (as I think of them). Also, I might on the spur of the moment and totally unadvertised and unscheduled give away random prizes to those who follow me on twitter.
   
   
3. And speaking of prizes. I might also give away some random and unadvertised prizes to those who follow my blogs. Sometimes I'll aggregate followers from all six sites and draw for a prize. Sometimes I might just pick a follower from one of the sites. So sign up to follow each one of them.
   
   
4. And one last prize update. Now that the Summer Reading Things is over, I'll be going back to two sponsors a month on the LDS Fiction/LDS Fiction Review sites. I'll give away the final four prizes (currently shown on the sidebars) the end of this month, then post two new sponsors for October.
   

Melinda and the Wild West Giveaway

Hello everyone! My last book in this series, Elena, Woman of Courage, has just been released. As a celebration, I'm having a free book give-away for the first book in this series: Melinda and the Wild West. This book was a Semi-finalist for the “Reviewers Choice Award 2007.”

Go to my blog at http://lindaweaverclarke.blogspot.com and leave a comment on the "Elena, Woman of Courage Press Release" along with your e-mail address. I will announce the winner on my birthday: Oct 2nd.

Synopsis for Melinda and the Wild West: In 1896 Melinda Gamble—a very elegant, naïve young woman from Boston—decides to give up her life of monotonous comfort for the turbulent uncertainty of the still untamed Wild West. Driven by her intense desire to make a difference in the world, Melinda takes a job as a schoolteacher in the small town of Paris, Idaho, where she comes face-to-face with a notorious bank robber, a vicious grizzly bear, and a terrible blizzard that leaves her clinging to her life. But it’s a rugged rancher who challenges Melinda with the one thing for which she was least prepared—love.

Good Luck!

Bunch of Prize Winners!

Oh my gosh! Did I fall off the edge of the Internet last month? I can't believe I am so far behind on the contests for the Summer Reading Thing (which is now over).

Thank you to all who participated. You can check out the list of books we read HERE—with links to the reviews. (I know we topped 100 because I happen to know some people have read books and forgotten to let me know about it.) (And you know who you are!) (Even though you don't know who I am.)

Whatever.

Winners from the last three weeks (weeks 12, 13 & 14) are posted below this post so scroll down to see how lucky you are.

I'm also awarding two more prizes—one for the week I missed (week 5? 6?) and also one for the person who read and reviewed the most books during Summer Reading Thing 2009.
