Happy St. Patty’s Day! (& A Giveaway!)

It’s not the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, BUT…I feel like giving away an ARC of MARKED today in honor of the holiday! (My Eternal Guardians are definitely not Irish, but I am, so what I say goes.)

Here’s how we’ll do it. I’m going to list off five questions. You have to find the answers. (Google, anyone?) Come back here, post your answers in the comment section. Everyone who posts the five correct answers will be entered into the drawing. Easy stuff.

Since my “guys” are Greek (not Irish), the five questions deal with Greek Mythology.

Ready? Here we go.

***

1. Who is considered the greatest of the Greek heroes?
(Hint: This has something to do with MARKED!)

2. Who is Hades’s consort?
(Hint: She’s also known as the Queen of the Underworld.)

3. Which hero led the Argonauts?
(Hint: Think – The Golden Fleece.)

4. Who are the “big three” gods of the pantheon?
(Hint: One rules the sky, one rules the ocean and one rules the Underworld. Oh, and they’re brothers.)

5. Can you name the three Furies?
(Hint: This should be a no-brainer if you read STOLEN FURY. If not, you should easily be able to find it.)

That’s it. Five questions. I’ll choose a winner tomorrow from all who comment with the correct answers today.

Ready…Set…Go!!!

Okay, I have a confession to make…

I am obsessed with this:


How was your Halloween? Did you dress up? And I have to know…did you already know about the LFL????

Happy Good Friday!

Today I’m over at the Mid-Willamette Valley blog talking about faith (a timely topic given the holiday) and books. Hop (pun intended since Easter is on Sunday) over and leave me a comment!

I’m Thankful For…

…the fact Thanksgiving Vacation is over!

Oh, man. It’s been a crazy week here. The Gremlins were off school ALL last week due to conferences and the Thanksgiving Holiday. Couple that with the DH who is home recovering from surgery, and you can only imagine the chaos. So far (and there are still several hours left before the vacation is ‘officially’ over), I think we suffered 3 major catastrophes…a broken candlestick (which I loved), thanks to a Superman game the boys played that involved a blanket as a cape, running and (of course) screaming – paint all over the kitchen table because someone (Gremlin #1, no doubt) neglected to put papers under her ‘masterpiece’ – and a ball point pen, which was applied not-so-lovingly (by Gremlin #3) to the back of my red leather chair. Needless to say, I’m more than ready to send these Gremlins back to school. And I’m very concerned about the upcoming two week Christmas break. Ack!

Good News…DH is doing much better. He seems to have turned a major recovery corner and even managed to go to the Civil War game with me yesterday. Of course, it would have been even better if we hadn’t been spanked by the Ducks (oh, just saying that hurts), but at least the tailgating was fun. I don’t even want to talk about the game. I’m still in mourning.

Tomorrow is December! I can hardly believe it. 30 days until STOLEN FURY releases. EEEK! I’m finishing up the last bit of touches on my December contest, and it should go up on my website this week. Will post the details when they’re all ironed out. In the meantime, I got another fabulous review, this one from Night Owl Romance. You can read the entire review here, but here’s a highlight:

“Stolen Fury is a great debut novel in a trilogy. It’s fast-paced and intensely suspenseful. It definitely had me on the egde of my seat waiting to see what would happened next. The chemistry between Lisa and Rafe was scorching hot and I enjoyed their getting to know each other. They disliked yet were attracted to each other and it was fun to see them fight it. I thoroughly enjoyed Stolen Fury and look forward to reading the next in the trilogy, Stolen Heat, coming Summer 2009.”–Night Owl Romance, 4.75/5

So tell me…how was your Thanksgiving?
