Blog Tour de Troops – Wherein I Give Away Some Shtuff

If you'd like to donate money toward those Kindles for our soldiers, simply use Paypal and ibcprograms@gmail.com as the address to send money to. Please note on your payment that it's a Troops donation.

You should have arrived here from J Monkeys blog and will continue on to Michael Mustizer’s blog. But don’t leave until you grab your freebies!

I was an Air Force brat. I know, explains a lot about me, right? My earliest memories of my dad are of him in his fatigues, getting ready to go or coming home from work. We didn’t always see eye-to-eye, but there is one thing on which we were always in sync: a fierce patriotism to our country and unflagging support for our military forces. Continue reading

What’s A Girl Gotta Do?

To get a review, that is. *scratches head* I’ve sold almost as many copies of OFFICE POLITICS in one month as I’ve sold of MALAKH since its release in early April. But I keep getting reviews on MALAKH, but nothing on OFFICE POLITICS. Perplexing.  *scratches head again*

So I figure if I offer up another freebie, someone is bound to leap right on over to Amazon or Smashwords—or both—and leave an awesometastic review (that “awesometastic” is strictly for the BFF. It’s kinda like Rick-rolling her. haha). Continue reading

OFFICE POLITICS Pre-Release Freebie

Why wait for the formal announcement? I’m too excited. :-D

So anyone who comments on this post & leaves me an email address will get a coupon for a FREE copy of my novel Office Politics, which is being released tomorrow.

All I ask in return is that if you like it, spread the word. Oh, and if you feel like it, leave some reviews around Goodreads, Amazon, and Smashwords. I’m an indie author, and I need all the good press I can get, baby!

Frannie Freeman’s Margarita Method of Interviewing – Victim: NL Gervasio

Today I’m featuring an interview with my fellow indie writer/business partner/beta reader/editor/dear friend NL Gervasio, more commonly known to you—and me, truth be told—as Jinx or Jinxie G. I met Jinx in October 2006 on a writers site called WritersCafe, back when it was the best thing evah this side of a Paris café. We’ve been pretty inseparable ever since.

So much so that I feel absolutely no qualms about turning this interview over to Francesca Freeman, the intrepid, fantastically clumsy main character of my second novel, Office Politics (release date June 30, 2011). Frannie comes with her own warning label (“Internal Thoughts May Be Vocalized Without the Benefit of Filtering”), so you’ve been warned. ;-)

PS – It was Jinx’s birthday on Monday, so be sure to wish her a happy birthday on here, her blog, or Twitter! Oh, and did I mention there’s a GIVEAWAY? One lucky winner gets a free copy of Nemesis (click here to read a sample)! Just follow the instructions at the end of the interview. Continue reading
