Many may not know but we do all of our contests on our Facebook fan pages. You may want to like the page so you don't miss them and you can enter.

1. We have a 100 Likes contest going on Sherlock's fan page for a free signed copy of book # 1. The rules are all on the picture but they are here below as well:

  • You must be in Canada or U.S to have the book mailed to you.
  • Must like the page at the time of the draw.
  • I must be able to contact you on Facebook to let you know you won and to get an address.
  • The picture and NOT the post must be liked in order to win. See the fan page for the 100 Likes photo.
  • Draw date: March 4, 2015

    2.  We have a 125 Likes contest going on Sherlock's fan page for an e-book version of his first book, available on Smashwords.com The book can be downloaded in a variety of formats for your e-book reader but will be required for you to manually add it to your e-book library.
  • Can be anywhere around the world. There is no specific area that you need to be to win.
  • Must like the page still at the time of winning.
  • I must be able to contact you on Facebook if you win.
  • The picture and NOT the post must be liked in order to win. See the fan page for the 125 Likes photo.

3. If we can get 150 Likes to the fan page, we will do another free signed book contest.

4. We now have a "Shop Now" button on the top of the fan page. It takes you directly to my Amazon.com listing for all of my books.

5. If you don't want to miss any contests, posts, etc. be sure to follow these instructions:
  • Like the fan page (be on it to follow the rest of the instructions).
  • See where the liked button is now that you've liked the page? Hold the mouse over it.
  • Choose "Get Notifications" so that it will inform you of all posts. Facebook has it set up so that not everyone sees the posts to pages that they like, this way you will advertise with them. This is also a sure way to prevent missing it on your wall.

Book 2 Begun and 1st Chapter Preview

5/8/2014

0 Comments

 
I've begun writing Sherlock's second book. So far it is entitled, "Sherlock vs. the Greenie Meanie." This may change as I write but for now, this is the title. I've uploaded the first chapter to the website for those who can't wait. It is yet unedited. I always edit the final versions near release time. Feel free to take a look and read. It is in PDF format. Also, please note that I've changed the page name from "Books and Previews" to "Previews and Reviews." This means that the link is no longer the same.

Here is the link:

Book 1 Update and Problems

We had some issues with pages being missing in the book. It is currently unavailable for purchase. Unfortunately, so are my copies until new ones come in. You can still pre-order though! I am now having troubles with Createspaces upload system which apparently doesn't like the series title inside the first page cover. This is being worked out and it will all hopefully be online soon. I will be sure to let you know! I will be sure to update you on the status though they've told me it could be a few business days. 



Sherlock Contest Winner

The contest date has come to a close! The winner of a free copy of Sherlock's book is found on the Facebook fan page. Congratulations! I will be sending you out a signed copy as soon as I get the new ones in.

Rescues and the Books

Lastly, we are pleased to have the help of some rescues that are willing to share their knowledge with me for researching the next book. A special thanks goes out to:
Majestic Waterfowl Sanctuary and Berkshire Reptile Rescue!

Freckles the Bunny Series and Rescues

Freckles the Bunny Series is about to place two of Majestic Waterfowl Sanctuary's adoptables into the next book! This idea is courtesy of Anastasia Drogaitseva, my wonderful illustrator! We are also working on book 5 now. We have some pets in there (Pets in Books - see Freckles' website for details under the sales page) and a few rescued animals. Keep an eye out for a preview over the next month.

Sherlock Merchandise

I am working on putting together some Sherlock merchandise so keep an eye out!
