Hi ,
Last month's giveaway winners are Debbie at de...36 at hotmail dot com, Rugene at ru...ej at yahoo dot com, and Ami at am...bs3 at gmail dot com. If this is you, I have emailed you to get your address for shipping.
Princess of Hope is at the point where I want to let it sit for a little bit before reading it one more time to decide if it's ready for the technical editing phase. Fingers crossed, but I think it's there.
Right now, I'm drafting The Lost Assassin which is due to release in January.
I've read through and found where I was at in Once upon a Betrothal. Since I drafted the majority of this book previously, I don't have too much that needs to be added. If I make good time writing The Lost Assassin, I may be able to publish this one first, but I don't know yet because I need to focus on The Lost Assassin.
Feedback from last month's survey favored the idea of me narrating my audiobooks. Before I invest in the equipment that I know will be necessary to produce a quality audiobook, I want to make certain that I can do it well. So I'm going to start with a chapter or two without the better equipment, just to get a feel for how you like my style of reading. Since Once upon a Shoe and Once upon a Silent Song are already in audio format, I'll be starting with Once upon a Rose.
If you filled out last month's survey and said you were interested in helping me with audiobooks, I will be reaching out to you sometime this month about it.
If you did not fill out last month's survey and want to listen to audio files as I make them to help me out, then hit reply and let me know.
For this month's giveaway of a $5 Amazon gift card, hit replay and answer this question. What is your favorite book of all time?

Writing Snippet from Once upon an Isle of Treasure
Livy spun around in a rare fit of anger, though a small corner of her mind was aware it was unjustified. “What do you want, Cole?”
“You can’t leave now.”
The blood drained from her face along with the anger as fear took root instead. Livy didn’t think he’d turn her in, but if Cole knew her intent, she had to wonder if anyone else had guessed at it.
