Congratulations to SHIRLEY who won a signed copy of A Red Hot New Year in the great New Year Scavenger Hunt. In case you're interested, here are the answers to the questions.


1. What's my favourite tipple?

Champagne and orange. My blog 9th December. Though I accepted Australian wine. What? You think I'm a lush?

2. What is the relationship between Trey (Gift of the Goddess) and Fledge (Tailspin)?

They're cousins, as Mirry explains.

3. What is the title of my upcoming March release from Ellora's Cave?

Strongman - 21 March 2008. Home page. *bwg*

4. What is Sam Jones' profession?

Photographer. My newsgroup or the podcast.

5. Why was my wedding a little - ahem - different?

It was a total disaster!

6. I have two "characters" called the Lady Meroe. Who (and what) are they?

A ship (an East Indiaman) and a cat. Rackety Kate

7. Which of my books won a DOUBLE Golden Rose Award?

Gift of the Goddess

8. What is the name of the King of the Faeries?

Obernunda. The Amorous Adventures of Alice

9. Why are fareng so dangerous?

Fareng venom is secreted on spikes in the tail. By paralyzing the lungs of the victim, it produces a quietly painful death. It is therefore a popular tool of the trade in the Assassins' Guilds. Mirry's Encyclopedia.

10. What makes Maeve different?

She's a banshee, poor thing. Come Howling.

The Charm Contest

Closes midnight, Friday 30th November, 2007

The Prize? An ARC of A RED HOT NEW YEAR

A Red Hot New Year

 

 

Some of you will know that I have a charm bracelet and that I buy a charm for every book I have published.

When Tailspin was released, I asked readers to suggest a charm to buy and it was so much fun reading about your ideas that I'm going to do this on a regular basis. (Which kinda presupposes I continue to get published.)

So here we go...*clears throat*

 

 

 

What to do:

Here's the Charm Bracelet, with the charm in question cunningly concealed. Below you'll see an explanation of each charm and which book it represents. There's a larger picture here.

Email me - deniserossetti @ gmail.com (no spaces) - with your suggestion for a charm to represent Coming on Strong, my story in the A Red Hot New Year anthology.

The winner will be the one that matches or surpasses what I already chose. I couldn't wait, I'm sorry - I have NO self-discipline when it comes to shiny things. *g*

From the left (ie, most recent):
The mystery charm for Coming on Strong; a dollar sign for the deal with Berkley (mercenary creature, ain't I? heh heh); the tragedy/comedy masks for Come Howling, which was the best I could do for a banshee - I decided they were Before and After for Maeve; Mirry's Encyclopedia for Tailspin; a dragon for Gift of the Goddess; a heart-shaped clasp for romance in general.


Need Ideas?

  • Read the excerpt
  • Listen to the podcast
  • Read the reviews
  • What's an ARC?

    An ARC is an Advanced Reader's Copy. It's the final proof copy, with a plain cover, but with all the the hot stories, every word!
