JOIN MY READER GROUP & WIN GREAT PRIZES

I’m so excited to share that my Facebook Reader Group, Kerry’s Kindred Spirits, is LIVE! If you’d like to join, it can be found at http://facebook.com/groups/kerryskin. To kick us off, I’ll be doing SIX weekly giveaways, for giftcards good for books and movies, ranging from $15 to $25! Giveaways will start on Sundays and end on Saturdays, with the first one launching on July 18, to give everyone a chance to join, and me a chance to get the festivities started! ;) 

NOTE: I understand that not everyone is on Facebook, or even likes it. But I am, and I do! So this is where my Reader Group will be hosted. Please don't email me about this - if FB isn't for you, no worries. I'll have other, non-FB giveaways in future, and we can always keep in touch here, or via social media (see links at the bottom of this email, or on my website).  :)

Damning the Dead Cover RevealPlus (drumroll…) – I’ve got even MORE exciting news! I have a COVER for DAMNING THE DEAD, and it is AMAZE-BALLS. Seriously! I’ll be doing the reveal in the Facebook group soon(-ish :)), as well as posting a teaser excerpt or two, because (second drumroll…) I should have a release date very soon!!! And it should be in 2021!!!

Yep, you read that right: DAMNING THE DEAD is finally in the final pre-pub stage! More than a year later than expected, but who’s counting?? (If you need excuses, try: Personal, Professional, and Global Catastrophes over the last 18+ months. ‘Nuff said. :)) I am SO excited that it’s finally almost here, and I can share more of Hyacinth & Co.’s ups, downs, and all-arounds with you all! And let me tell you – this time, they're in for one helluva ride!!!

Okay, I think that’s it for DATD news! For today, at least! When I have a release date, I’ll let you know. Or if you want to find out faster, join Kerry’s Kindred Spirits, as that’s where I’ll most likely be sharing it first. Hope you’re all having a great summer! I’m about to leave on a three-week trailer camping jaunt to the Midwest, so follow me on Instagram if you want to see random pics, or TikTok for random videos. :) Or, not to belabor the point – join the FB group, where I’ll probably share as well!

An Award + a FANTASTIC Review for WAKING THE DEAD

I’m SO happy to announce that WAKING THE DEAD won another award – this one for third place in the National Excellence in Story Telling (NEST) Contest. Paranormal Category! This is a highly competitive competition, and I’m thrilled to have placed so highly!

Additionally, last week I received this AMAZING 5-star review, from Reader’s Favorite, which reads in part, “a very engrossing romantic and fantasy blockbuster of a tale that is sure to keep readers turning the pages from cover to cover.” SQUEE!!!

If you haven't read it yet...why not??  ;)

A New (to me) Website to Help You Find & Support Local Authors: HOMETOWN READS


A fellow author recommended this site, and I just signed up. It's very cool - you can search by city/region, genre, or even author. I love the idea that it's geared toward "reading local," and authors can add links to their favorite local bookstore (like mine, Jan's Paperbacks in Beaverton) or libraries!

Here's my author page, just to get you started. But you should definitely click View All Books at the top, or Browse By Genre / City in the right sidebar. It's really fun to see what comes up!
Historical Scottish Trilogy Box Set for only $5.99!

Scotland 1263-1322

The MacCoinneach family is gifted but afflicted. Deeply rooted powers of healing, feeling, and prophecy run in their bloodline. Descended from the Norse and mystical Ancients of the Isles, they must each face the curses associated with their ability…they must each find the path to love. Norse invasions, Scottish fights for independence, and the plights of the mystical isles’ people come together in The Hundred Trilogy.

Only $5.99 gets you the whole trilogy! What a deal!!!

Find it on Amazon or Barnes & Noble!
It's July, so time for another N.N. Light's Monthly Giveaway!
July is here and normally that means enjoying the gorgeous weather, staying hydrated and cool. There’s nothing I like better than to read outside, feeling the sun’s rays heat my skin and hearing the birds chatter while the leave rustle in the wind. Whether you frolick in the sand and surf or staying inside with the a/c cranked, you’ll oooh and ahhh over this giveaway where you can win free books including hardcover, e-copy and audiobooks plus Amazon and Starbucks gift cards. The list is long and personally, I’d love to win myself but alas, I can’t. So, I’ll just live vicariously through the lucky winners. If there’s a particular book or prize you’d like to win, be sure to say which prize you want when you enter via the Rafflecopter. Enter here and good luck!
The Last Word

I think I used to  put more in the Last Word than just Super Secret Giveaway stuff, but apparently that's what I'm using this area for now!  :)  So, without further ado, congrats to Zara H., who won the last Super Secret Giveaway! 

For the SSG this time, hit reply and tell me if you have a local bookstore you love (and if so, where is it?). Or if you're a library gal (me! definitely me!!), tell me why you love your library. I'll choose a random entry from all those received by 11:59:59 p.m. on Wednesday July 21, 2021. Winner gets their choice of a $5 gift card to Starbucks or Amazon, so send me your responses!

Happy Saturday, and until the next Very Occasional Time...


 

Cheers,
Kerry
