More Foreign Finds and the Fun Foreign Giveaway Winner!

Thanks to everyone who stopped by to check out my fun foreign covers and trailers and to enter my Fum Foreign Giveaway. Yes, I know I'm VERY late with this post, but I've been writing. A lot. In the meantime, I stumbled onto some new foreign covers. I have to say, my foreign publishers are doing a fabulous job on the covers. So, here are the new ones.

This is the French cover of Personal Demons, set to publish July 6th.

And, here's the French cover of Original Sin, which doesn't have a release date posted yet.

On July 13th, the Polish translation of Original Sin is set to publish! Here's the cover!

What do you think? I love them all! =)

And, now the winner of the Foreign Finds giveaway. The winner of their choice of any one of these translations of Personal Demons: (Spanish, German, Italian, respectively)

as chosen my the randomizer, is...

Elixa Gonzales!!!

Congrats! I will email you soon!

NOOK WINNER! And other winners too!

LAST RITE releases today! I love this series and the characters like they are family. Now my book babies are all grown up and leaving me for the big world. I'm not really sure today if I feel like this:

or this:

I loved writing LAST RITE because I got to write from both my beautiful boy's POVs as well as Frannie's, and I think the story is EPIC. I hope you all read and enjoy the finale to the Personal Demons trilogy.


Two hundred of you stopped by to enter to win your own copies of the trilogy. Thanks to all of you! For those of you who won, CONGRATS! If you didn't, I feel compelled to mention at this juncture that LAST RITE will be available at your favorite bookseller as of today. If you're a bargain seeker, if you buy the entire Personal Demons trilogy on Amazon, you can choose a fourth book for FREE!! It's true! And several entrants said they wanted the audiobook trilogy. You can find that here, at Audible for download or here on Amazon for physical CDs or MP3 on CD. (Then you can swoon with me over Luc and Gabe's voices. *drools*)

So, without further ado, here are the winners of the MEGA Personal Demons giveaway.

First runner up, who has a choice of the entire Personal Demons trilogy on CD audiobook or in paperback is...

Renee Combs!!

The second runner up, who, provided the first runner up didn't choose the audiobooks, has a choice of the entire Personal Demons trilogy on CD audiobook or in paperback is...

Savanna Ucinsky!!

The third runner up, who has the same deal as the second runner up is...

Heidi B!!

And, because there were TWO HUNDRED OF YOU I'm throwing in another set of books (audio or paperback) to a fourth runner up, and that person is...
