Click the link for a chance to win 1 of 4 copies of The Nut Hut!

Edited to announce: All 4 copies of The Nut Hut have been won! Thanks everyone for playing and sharing! The print version of this book is still available to purchase, and the eBook versions of all of my titles are always just a click away (links to the right of this page). Thanks again!


Click the link below for a 1-20 chance to win one of 4 trade paperback copies of The Nut Hut, my stand-alone novel. No purchase necessary, must be a US resident and over 18 to win, must have an Amazon account. How quickly the prizes are won depends on the volume of traffic- it could be fast, it could be slow. While you're there, check out my Tory Bauer mysteries, and if you're a knitter, my knitting books. Yes, this is pure promotion, but at least you might win something... smile emoticon. Have fun, and if you win, let me know! (Amazon is doing the choosing and shipping- I'm not involved in picking the winners).

HopHeadSaid New Year's Giveaway

Curtis Taylor, intrepid artist and author, blogger, radio personality, beer expert, and not incidentally, my oldest son, is hosting a giveaway contest on his HopHeadSaid blog for this wonderful apron:

 It's a heavy-duty canvas apron with the HopHeadSaid logo on it, from CafePress. I have another CafePress apron (with the Sex and Salmonella eBook cover on it) and can attest to its durability and functionality (in other words- it's a really good apron). And I love the way the ties are attached through casings, so it really does fit all sizes. The giveaway apron is like the one above: navy with the white logo.

Here's the logo, a little more visible. I'm wearing my HopHeadSaid sweatshirt right now (gray fabric, black image).

In order to enter, head on over to HopHeadSaid and follow the instructions (it's easy- post the contest on Facebook or some other place, and leave a comment). Easy peasy! And when you get done, head over to the CafePress shop from HopHead Said for other cool beer related items.

Good Luck!
