Two Spooky Blogfests

Just wanted to give you a heads up on two cool blogfests coming up for Halloween.They're easy and fun and give us an opportunity to flex our writing muscle, Halloween style.

 
This Friday, Brenda Drake is hosting the Can you Leave Us Breathless Blogfest Contest.   On October 21 post an excerpt---up to 300 words---from your novel or other writings to your blog. If you want, you can write something new for the contest. It can be scary, romance, a thrill ride, a twist. It can be any genre. All you have to do is leave readers breathless.

 
 

On Halloween, Tara Tyler is hosting the Haunted Drabble.  Write a spooky 100 word story & post on Halloween. Post your link in comments at Tara's on 10/31.  She might be giving out a treat to her favorite Haunted Drabble.

Thanks for the info, Nicki. I'm happy to help Elizabeth celebrate.

Nicki, I'm getting ready to post about needing help about how best to e-pub my Christmas story. I'm not only confused but frustrated. Please, please, pass on how you went about it. Many Thanks!!!

I wrote a comment that was incredibly witty, but I think it disappeared. Anyway, I promised that if you follow me you will be able to curse without censoring yourself. And I am following you.

Love,
Lola

Before I start talking dirty, guess what happened---I hit 200 followers!   My 200th follower is Tony VanHelsing (who I'm going to assume is a descendent of you-know-who, and if anyone knows differently do not tell me).  To celebrate this milestone, how about I put Three Daves on sale for only 99 cents in Nook , eBook, ePub , and even Kindle until September 30th. ;) For today's feature post, visit Irish beauty Carol Oates .  This talented author and I discuss Adult versus Young Adult and where the line gets crossed.

Aaand Lexa & Julie are hosting a great GIVEAWAY.  Visit either Lexa's blog or Julie's blog to enter and also to find the Linky list so you can travel to more dream destinations. It was unbelievably difficult for me to settle on just one place. I decided to make it somewhere I'd never been before...and then I decided to stop over thinking and just pick a place already...and I landed at Piazza San Marco in Venezia, or as we call it for some reason, Venice.

I would have tickets for that evening's opera in my pocket and a caffe-flavored gelato in my hand. I'd be wearing a darling scarf I'd just purchased, arr
