It's been coming for a while. And I knew it, too.
*sigh*

Ahem. Back on topic, I have a new schedule for the new year. I love you all and I'm going to be around a couple times a week to visit my bloggies, but for the time being I have to amend my weekly posting schedule to Wednesdays only. Writerly Wednesdays will continue, and I'll occasionally post off schedule *gasp* but my Funny Fridays/Motivational Mondays will all be squished into the same post as the weekly truth or lie game and giveaway. Can you handle all that awesomeness in a single day?
ALSO, Christmas is coming, and I'm giving away a special gift to everyone who signs up for my newsletter by Christmas Eve at 10 p.m. EDT. (Check out the form on the sidebar or bottom of this post.)
On to the fun of the day, eh?
Writerly Wednesdays here are for readers and writers. Get to know authors, test your human lie detector skills, and WIN books.
This week I'm excited to share with you not one, but three books! You read right. Rachel Morgan has been a bloggy buddy for, oh, five years or so, and I've read and love her work. Recently she's donned all new covers for her amazing series. Check it out:
Protecting humans from dangerous magical creatures is all in a day’s work for a faerie training to be a guardian. Seventeen-year-old Violet Fairdale knows this better than anyone—she’s about to become the best guardian the Guild has seen in years. That is, until a cute human boy who can somehow see through her faerie glamor follows her into the Fae realm. Now she’s broken Guild Law, a crime that could lead to her expulsion.
The last thing Vi wants to do is spend any more time with the boy who got her into this mess, but the Guild requires that she return Nate to his home and make him forget everything he’s discovered of the Fae realm. Easy, right? Not when you factor in evil faeries, long-lost family members, and inconvenient feelings of the romantic kind. Vi is about to find herself tangled up in a dangerous plot—and it’ll take all her training to get out alive.
Get your copies HERE.
Ready to meet Rachel?
Rachel Morgan was born in
South Africa where she spent a large portion of her childhood living in a
fantasy land of her own making. After completing a degree in genetics, she
decided science wasn’t for her—after all, they didn’t approve of made-up facts.
These days she spends most of her time creating fictional worlds for young
adults. When she isn't writing, she's reading (duh!), catching up on addictive
TV series, and baking things that almost always include chocolate.
Ideally, you might find Rachel on a wine estate somewhere in the Cape, eating Brie with fig preserve.
She gave me two truths and one lie to test your "lie detector" skills. Can you figure out the lie? Those who do will go into my magic hat for a chance to win a copy of one of her books--your choice! Eek! How cool is that? You have until Tuesday, December 24th at 1 p.m. EDT to guess--and be sure to come back for the answer on December 26th to see if you won.
TRUTH OR LIE
1. Rachel has read every Harry Potter book at least 8 times.
2. When she was little, she had an imaginary friend who was sometimes a boy and sometimes a girl.
3. To relieve exam stress, Rachel and her high school girlfriends used to hit the middle of the school field and scream.
Okay, which is the lie? And are you a dual dimension dweller? Have you signed up for my newsletter? What brand of cheese will you be eating this Christmas?
Oh, and be sure to stop back Friday for a really cool game provided by Emilyann Girdner.
