Naughty or Nice Blog Hop

I know this is the Naughty or Nice blog hop, but I’m positive we all made Santa’s Nice list this year, right? Um, well, most of the time? No? Hmmm, how about every Sunday and alternate Thursdays? Lol, well no fear, at J.A. Garland Books, we all made the Nice list! And you know what that means? No, I’m not jimmying down your chimney with gifts, the post office delivers them just fine, thank you. It means that besides the hop's grand prize of a Kindle Fire, I am giving you a chance to win some of my favorite things…

Bobbing for Books Blog Hop!

Who can resist a blog hop called "Bobbing for Books?" Not me! Apples might keep the doctor away, but books keep the doldrums away.

Sunset on Summer Fun Blog Hop

(ENTER BELOW)

Like a parent asked to pick their favorite child, it's impossible for me to declare my favorite season. 

I love spring for the new growth and warming temperatures, summer for the long days and bountiful fruits, fall for the spectacular array of colors, and winter for the cozy nights spent sipping hot chocolate.

Cabin Goddess

"Ever wonder what it would be like to sit down with your characters and drink a coffee?" That's the question Kriss of Cabin Goddess posed to me. To be honest, I hadn't. But once I started, I couldn't stop, and found myself signing up for a Fourth Wall post. For those of you not aware of the Fourth Wall, it's a special feature on Kriss' website where authors and their characters, well, sit down and chat. Sound interesting? Then stop by Cabin Goddess and see what Slade and I were cooking in the kitchen...
