Hello Friends!

I've much to news share with you:

1) Don't forget to check out my Epic 'Whatever Lola Wants' (aka 'Back From Maine') GIVEAWAY!

Pretty, yes? You could win a bottle of it...
AND freaky, writerly things too!

2) I have to spread some magical fairy dust ♥Link Love♥ upon some lovely friends who've gifted me with AWARDS recently (of which I am woefully behind, but ever grateful):

Sheri Larson @ http://writersally.blogspot.com

Dawn Simon @ plotting and scheming

Melissa @ Through the Looking Glass

Carol Kilgore @ Under the Tiki Hut

Jemi Fraser @Just Jemi

James Garcia@Dance on Fire

(this is me spreading the magical fairy dust love)

(I hope I haven't forgotten anyone. If I have, please let me know.)

THANK YOU to the lovely and fabulous bloggy friends listed above!

3) The sweet Shannon Whitney Messenger is having a contest..and she's giving way the highly anticipated ARC for TORMENT, click here! GO! Tell her I said hello.

4) Over at the lovely Carol's Prints you can win ARCs aplenty! She's giving away SEVEN ARCs!:

5) The generous Alexandra Shostak is having yet another incredible ARC giveaway: Win a copy of MATCHED or BEAUTIFUL DARKNESS!

6) I will be attending Write On Con this week (as will many of you), so I won't be around the blogosphere much for the next few days.

*A BIG THANKS to all the lovely people donating SO MUCH TIME to put this together.

7) I'm caught up on my sleep. Thank you to the many of you that emailed me or left sweet comments.

8) I love this writing community we have here SO much. That means YOU.

What news do you have this week?

Love,
Lola
