Advent Calendar Day 21 - A Giveaway!

 

Happy Solstice!

This giveaway has no geographic restrictions. Today I'm giving away 3 print copies of ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS.

In 2012 I began a holiday tradition of writing Christmas codas for some of my -- and your -- favorite stories. I ran the codas on my blog and left them up there for readers to enjoy all year round. Eventually readers began asking if the codas could be collected, formatted, and made available for purchase. 

I thought that was a fun idea, so I did that very thing. The codas were edited, some expanded a bit, formatted and collected in two digital collections along with a few recipes for cocktails and dishes that were either featured in the original works or added (IMHO) a final comment or insight into the era or the characters or their relationship.

This print collection contains the two digital collections, meaning codas from 2012 - 2017. I've just about got enough codas to do a third digital collection, which I plan to put together after this year's holiday codas. At that point I believe I'll have written a holiday coda for nearly every one of my stories! 

Anyway, to win one of these three copies, just comment below on which of my character pairings are your favorite--and why that is. 

Advent Calendar Day 19

It's a little disappointing there simply hasn't been time to write Christmas codas this year. Thank heavens for all the wonderful pinch hitters we have amongst you! There has been no shortage of delightful and heart-warming fiction this season.

Today I'm giving away two copies of All I Want for Christmas. Basically it's the print collection of (mostly) happy holiday memories for a lot of your favorite stories. They've been edited and a number of them have been expanded. In addition to all the codas written through last year, it's got a bunch of fun recipes for food and cocktails that tie in with the stories. It's a very nice extra for your Josh Lanyon collection!

So to be eligible for the random drawing you have to write the first paragraph of a holiday coda for your favorite Josh Lanyon couple. :-D

Come on! It'll be fun! It's good to get those creative juices flowing. It can be silly or serious or whatever. It's up to you. And who know, you might like your coda beginning so much that next year you finish it and contribute it to the calendar.

Hey, stranger things have happened!


*****************************
I LOVED every single one of these coda beginnings. The dark and stormy starts, the judgmental reindeer, the fireside snuggles and midnight rescues and staycations, the nervousness and anticipation and delight...these were wonderful. :-)

Our two randomly selected winners are...

 Natasha and Jacquie Sawyer.
