Welcome to October, friends. I’m a summer kind of gal, but I’m easily enchanted by the magic of fall. Who doesn’t succumb to the spell of jewel-bright leaves, cozy hearth fires and bright orange pumpkins? October is one of my favorite months, and this year I’m thrilled to be participating in multiple events celebrating authors, writers, and Halloween shenanigans.
First up, a number of my Lyrical Press sisters and I have teamed together as hostesses of a fun Facebook page called Sizzle and Sass. We hope to interact with readers and other authors sharing ideas, snippets of our works, games, giveaways, and more. And, of course, we want you to share as well, visit and comment often. 😀
Today is the official launch, and in celebration, we’re giving away a Kindle Paperwhite with our novels. I’ll be including a gifted copy of TWELFTH SUN. You can see all of the books in the banner strip on the left.
It’s simple to enter. All you have to do is like our Facebook page and enter the Rafflecopter giveaway by clicking here. The contest runs through October 26th, so share the news with your friends. We’d love to have you join us and check back often. Each week a different “Sassy Lady” will be hostess of resident mischief and fun including such events as Trivia Tuesday and What I Wrote Wednesday, plus posts introducing other authors and everyday rampant silliness. We want it to be a fun experience for everyone, so hop over, give us a “like” and enjoy our free giveaway for a Kindle Paperwhite. I’ll be Sassy Hostess the week of October 21st and hope to see you then if not before.
October is also “Celebrate Paranormal Month” on Lyrical Press’s blog with a different blog post and book featured each day. I’m participating with a post on werewolves along with my novel WEATHERING ROCK on October 10th. Join us for the entire month with a bounty of spooky paranormal reads.
I’ve got a few other ghoulish visits up my sleeve during the month and will be sharing them as they happen. In the meantime, I’m extending awesome autumnal wishes to all. May your pumpkins be plump, your goblins gregarious, and your soups warmed by cozy hearth fires.
Happy Autumn!

It’s so inspiring for creativity, isn’t it? Thanks for dropping by, Jennifer. I’m almost disappointed (almost) we’re still having summer temps in my area!

I love autumn — it’s a spectacular season in New England. BUT, I think winter uses it as foreplay, seducing us until we forget that snow and dreadful cold is on its way. LOL

Several years ago I got to visit Massachusetts and Rhode Island during autumn, and it was spectacular. I remember Concord especially being gorgeous, dressed with colonial homes and colorful trees.
Unfortunately, like you said, Donna…it does lead to the frigid cold of winter. If only we could extend autumn and spring and reduce winter to the month of December. I’d be on board with that, LOL!
