Hey all! Just wanted to share a little something that was personally exciting. I was nominated for the #DABWAHA! If you don't know what that is, it's the Dear Author Bitchery Writing Award for Hella Authors. Basically, it's a March Madness Bracket. The owners of the Dear Author and Smart Bitches websites run a bracket every year where they pick the 64 books they enjoyed the most out of the last year and run a tournament. My novella 'Vixen' from WILD AND STEAMY was nominated, so I'm pretty stoked about that!

You can fill out a bracket yourself and enter to win lots of cool prizes. I think there's an iPad 2 up for grabs, among other cool things. To fill out a bracket, go to this website: http://dabwaha.wordpress.com/  and click on 'Tourney Site'. When you're on the tourney site, add a bracket. If you need help, this post will walk you through it.

So fill out a bracket! And when it comes time, VOTE FOR MEEEEEEE.

Now that we've had a day to recover and Wild & Steamy is up at most places, it's time to declare the winners to our 'WILD & STEAMY SHAME contest!

Here are our winners if we go with the first appearance, which was at  9:07 pm on August 2nd!

 

Cameron Yeager  guessed Tuesday Aug 2nd 11pm.

Abigail [All Things Urban Fantasy] guessed Blah...I should probably pick a date in the future, right? I'll say August 2nd at 10:49pm

Elise guessed I'm gonna guess 8/2 at 11:00pm.

Elaine Golden guessed August 2nd at 10:52pm

Daphne Brown guessed: 11:01pm August 2nd - Crossing fingers, toes, eyes, legs... well, you get the idea

Congrats to the winners! You have been contacted! And thanks to everyone that let us take just a weeeeee bit longer to get things out the door.

Hey all! So a few people brought to my attention that the coupon for the free download of Wicked Games in my newsletter expired. So weird! I have no idea why it did that.

Anyhoo, if you got the newsletter but were not able to download the book, please drop me an email and I'll send you the new coupon. It's not my intent to cheese you out of a free read.

In addition, if you are on the fence about signing up for my newsletter, I just want to remind that I will only send it out when I have a new release. So it's not monthly, not constant nattering about my favorite recipe - just updates of my releases as a quick FYI! My intent is never to spam.

For those of you that shop for ebooks, this weekend All Romance Ebooks is having a 50% rebate on everything purchased with Paypal and Credit Cards. My self-published books are here, if you've been waiting for the right moment to buy (and they're available in PDF or HTML if you don't have an e-reader!)

Just go to the All Romance website and look for Jill Myles!

I wanted something more playful and island-y to go with the theme of the book. Like it?

That my mailing list seems to be working well - if you want to sign up (and receive a coupon for a free download of Wicked Games) go to the newsletter link on my webpage.

Thanks guys!

An intrepid, sharp-eyed reader pointed out a few continuity flaws in WICKED GAMES to me, as well as a formatting error toward the end of the book that made the text a little hard to read.

I'm so embarrassed! I do the coding myself, so this has taught me a very good lesson - look at the END of the book as well as the first 70 or so.

At any rate, if you bought WICKED GAMES and it has the formatting error in the back (you know what I mean) and want a clean file, I'm happy to buy you a new one - just email me. If you're looking to buy WICKED GAMES in the next 24 hours, I'd advise you to wait until the new one is uploaded!

Christmas, Hanukkah, or something involving Cthulhu...
