Cold-Weather Reader's Giveaway

Sure, there's a lot of talk about summer reading--sitting on the beach or in a hammock with a good book. But let's talk about cold-weather reading. The reading that happens while you're wrapped up in a blanket with a cup of hot cocoa or snuggled up by a nice fire with your favorite book.

I love cold-weather reading. It gets dark earlier, there aren't as many distractions from outdoor activities and it's easy to get lost in another place and time.

This giveaway is for a cold-weather reading kit--a $25.00 gift certificate to Barnes and Noble to get whatever you want to read, a bookmark, and a container of Stephen's hot cocoa. Pictured is Stephens Wassail. You can choose if you want wassail or hot cocoa.

The deadline is Sunday evening at 6:00 p.m. At that point, a random selector will choose the winner from all entries. Here are ways to enter:

1. Leave a comment telling me what book you'd like to read this winter.

2. Become a follower and leave me a comment.

3. Post a link to this giveaway on your blog, facebook or twitter and leave me a comment with the link.

4. Post a link to one of my blog postings that you enjoyed to your facebook, twitter or blog and leave me a comment here. (You can post as many links as you want.)

5. If you are responsible for someone becoming a follower of my blog, leave me a comment telling me who you recruited to follow me.

So you can see there are lots of ways to win. I'm excited to have more people checking out the blog as I get closer to the release date of my book. Your help to share my blog with others is really appreciated. That's why I hope you win!

Have a great day and enter, enter, enter!
