It's release day!!!
Boy, have I been waiting for this day for a long time. Alex Holmes's story is finally available in stores. Run out to your nearest bookstore and pick up a copy of
RESCUE ME, then email me to let me know what you think!
Also, I recently ran two contests in anticipation of RESCUE ME's release, and here are the winners:
First, the winner of the ultra cool prize pack from Pepsi is
Vickie C. of Tennessee. She's a fan of Peyton Manning. Being from the New Orleans area, where the Manning name is synonymous with all that is great about football, I must agree with Vickie that Peyton and his brother, Eli, are both a class act. And they can really play ball. :)
Enjoy the game, Vickie! Go Steelers!
The winner of the autographed set of my Holmes Brothers series, along with a $25 gift card to Barnes & Noble's is
Kathy P. of Florida. Kathy happens to be a great friend in addition to being a fan. She's handed out bookmarks to independent bookstores in and around her town in Florida. I couldn't be happier to announce her as the winner of the cool prize!
Congrats, Kathy!
Happy Inauguration Day!!!
I can't remember the last time I felt this excited! Maybe it was on election day, but even then I was more nervous than excited.
Today, it's all about hope for our future as a country and a world. Today, I will think about my grandparents who would have been overjoyed to experience this very special day. And I hope at least once today, during my channel-flipping, that I remember to really sit back and reflect on this precious moment in history.
Happy Inauguration Day!
Contests Galore!
Because I'm feeling ultra generous (and know really cool people), I'm hosting two great contests!

The second prize is
really exciting for anyone who's a sports fanatic.
