As promised I am having a giveaway!

Well folks, I said when I hit 300 followers on Twitter I would be having a giveaway, and the time has come!  I'm sliding this post in between storms and hopefully will be able to post it before the end of the day.  :o)

I've been thinking about how this should work.  Should I give away eBooks?  Printed books?  Non-book items?  And then it hit me, why not do all three?

So I'm going to be to be choosing ten winners by random drawing (because I like randomness), all of whom will be getting books, two of whom will also be getting non-book prizes!  From the ten I will draw two more names for the Grand Prize winner, and a runner up.

Prizes!
Grand Prize - an autographed copy of your choice of either Bridging The Gaps or The DeFord Chronicles, Part I + a CD of original music I recorded many moons ago under a stage name.
Runner up - an autographed copy of either book + a unique hand-painted glass pin (floral design).
Remaining prizes - eBook copy in format of your choice of either book.

About the two books:  Bridging The Gaps is a contemporary novel about a family going through divorce and rebuilding their lives with humor and friendship.  The DeFord Chronicles, Part I is a historical novel set in a fictional country and inhabits a genre I like to call Medieval Soap Opera.  A fast-paced, fun story with swordfighting and treachery.  For more information regarding each book to assist you in deciding, see the Bookshelf page, the Exclusive Excerpt page, or check out the previews on Amazon or Barnes & Noble. 

Entries will close at 12:00 AM, Central Time, Monday October 7th.  To enter just leave a comment with your preference of book.  Best of luck to all.

Kate

P.S.  My Twitter followers will get a more than 24 hour head start on this giveaway as I will not post about it on Facebook or G+ until Friday evening.

"The DeFord Chronicles, Part II" is my current work in progress, Traci. I'm considering a sequel to "Bridging The Gaps" as well.

Thanks for your support!

I LOVED Bridging the gaps (I'd love that in paperback) so the DeFord Chronicles will be gratefully received if I win (in paperback though - that way I can carry it with me wherever I go. I often tell others about the books I'm reading to try to tempt them to buy them (it SOMETIMES works apparently). You're a fantastic writer though, Kate, so anything is fine by me! :D

Thanks for the contest! I am so looking forward to reading the DeFord Chronicles, Pt. 1! And I am sure I will be anxious for the sequel too! I would love a sequel to Bridging the Gaps, if you decide to write one!

You're welcome, Becky. A Bridging The Gaps sequel is looking more likely all the time. I've had lots of questions about that.
