CONTEST Madness

Sometimes it happens. Sometimes I go a little crazy.

The Facebook contest is going GREAT, but I need your help. We need to get the word out to MORE people. I need you to share this blog or my Facebook contest page with your friends … you can email it to them, or you can SHARE the announcement on my Facebook page. Then post a comment below telling me what you’ve done AND leave your email. Easy?

Sure, it is. Now, let me rummage around in my prize closet. Okay. I found a nice pillow from Shipshewana. Isn’t it cute? You can rest while you read my latest mystery. : )

I’ll draw a winner in 24 hours … so you all get busy sharing.

p.s. – remember, the Facebook contest is easy. Weekly winners receive both of my books. Grand prize winner receives a kindle Fire, pre-loaded with Amish fiction–both my books, and Amy Clipston’s books. WooHoo!

It’s CONTEST Time!

It’s finally time!

I’m pretty excited. We’ve opened up the contest for the Kindle Fire, and it’s going to be pre-loaded with Amish fiction–both my books, and Amy Clipston’s books. WooHoo! Now you understand why I’m doing back-flips.

All of the details are under a new tab on my Facebook page–labelled CONTEST. You can use the Facebook tab to your right.

The fine folks at Zondervan have outdone their self this time, but we’re all excited about the release of A Perfect Square. It’s a book from my heart–a book about grace, things that are lost and possibly found, a story of how God can heal the deepest places of our heart. I can’t wait for you to read it. If you haven’t read book 1 yet (Falling to Pieces), it’s available for $2.99 in e-book form for a limited time. I hope you’ll check it out.

Be sure and share the contest with your friends. I can’t WAIT to see your responses over the next few weeks.

I’ve held off on my usual Tuesday contests the last few weeks, and it’s been difficult for me to do so. “Why?” you ask. Because we’ve been working on my biggest and best contest yet. Here are some details–

Starts this Friday, March 2nd.

Grand prize winner will receive a Kindle Fire.

We’ll load the Kindle with some great Amish fiction novels (mine and another awesome author’s)!

Contest opens on March 2 at noon on my Facebook page–on a new tab. I’ll post a link here and on my facebook page once the tab goes live.

Sound fun? It’s all to celebrate the release of A Perfect Square. The e-book version is available next Tuesday and the paperback will release later in March. Feel free to share this announcement with your friends. The more folks we have entered the more fun we’ll have. As always, thank you for all you do to encourage me and to support Amish fiction.
