Today I’m celebrating the launch of my romantic and humorous Halloween flavoured novella How Do You Voodoo? and I’m delighted to have so many fabulous party peeps taking part in what I’m sure will be a spellbindingly fun event both here and on Twitter! #voodoo
Blurb: How Do You Voodoo? Loveless
fashion model Nola Nichols thinks being beautiful is a curse; that is until she
is cursed and her looks begin to fade just a week before the most
important photo shoot of her career.
Nola rejects all rational explanation on what might
be causing her lost looks and decides she has to find a way to get uncursed.
This imaginative quest takes her from the Caribbean to Glasgow’s own City of
the Dead. Along the way, she finds herself taking part in a rather unconventional
funeral, involved in a voodoo ritual, reveals one or two unrests in her own
past and falls madly in love with a doctor. Erm, that would be a witch doctor,
right…?
How Do You Voodoo? has already been attracting
some fabulous reviews on Amazon UK and Amazon US and has been described by
top book bloggers as “a
really fun and heart-warming read to curl up with over Halloween” (Love Reading
Love Books) and for its novella length “perfect for commuting” (Jera’s
Jamboree).
How Do You Voodoo? is available FREE OF CHARGE TODAY
It’s my party gift to YOU. So please click
on the links and download it to your Kindle today and be sure to tweet and
share and tell all your friends to do the same. It will be back at 77p / 99c
tomorrow.
FREE TODAY
Other Amazon sites are also included!
I’ve invited you all here today to cast a magic spell – it can be anything you wish – and I can’t wait to see what you’ve all
been cookin’ up!
This is my spell: It’s a Spell of Scottish Sunshine! It’s been a very wet and dreary summer here in Scotland or as we like to
complain “a dreich and dour” one. So I’m going to rub some suntan lotion into
my hands and chant this spell while I evaporate a drop of toads sweat from a
silver spoon over a candle flame – and hope it works!
So now it’s almost time
to visit all The Spellbindingly Fun Party Peeps! Each has a magical spell cast on their blogs today, so do pop over and
leave a comment, share their links and click on their Twitter button.
On Twitter do remember to include the #voodoo in
all tweets and please RT those you see in your Twitter stream today – as there
is a prize draw
for two of these voodoo love dolls just for #voodoo RT’s and MT’s!
![]() |
Love is bewitching! Sometimes love needs a wee nudge. Set your sights on your goal. This voodoo doll gives you a way to spear him like a cupids arrow! |
![]() |
This scented candle, beautifully packaged in tartan and and in the exact shade of the cover of How Do You Voodoo? is capable of transporting you to the heather covered hills of the Highlands! |
Do click on each of the Party Peeps names below to see what spells they’ve been cooking up. I too will be visiting each and every one of them during the day to read the spellbindingly fun post and to leave a comment.
I’ll
also be popping onto Twitter using the hashtag #voodoo
to keep up with the voodoo chatter until I need to pop back and refill
my chalice with a Voodoo Cocktail (see
the fun recipes below for ‘The Voodoo’,
The High Priestess’ and ‘The Witch Doctor’!) but take it easy –
they are all incredibly potent!
Music:
Join me in a wee dance about to ‘The How Do You Voodoo Playlist’ which contains such classics as ‘Black Magic Woman’, ‘I Put A Spell On You’, ‘Devil Woman’, ‘I’m Your Witch Doctor’, ‘Evil
Ways’ and ‘That Old Devil Called
Love’. Well, a party’s not complete without some magical music, is it?
Drinks:
Grab a drink from the Voodoo Cocktail Bar:
The
Voodoo: Dark
Rum (to ward off dark spirits), Apricot liqueur, Blue Curacao, Tropical Fruit
Juice, Grenadine. Serve tall over ice.
The High Priestess: New Orleans Vodka, Mango Juice, Anisette Liqueur. Serve with ice and mint leaves (to ward off evil spirits).
The
Witch Doctor: (Recipe
courtesy of the Voodoo Lounge in Las Vegas) Light Rum, Dark Rum, Peach
Schnapps, Cruzan Raspberry Rum. Pineapple Juice. Grenadine. Sour Mix. Stir and
serve over ice.

Hi Emily! Thank you for your lovely comment. I'm having a giggle over my toast and coffee now at the spells I've read so far - how funny and CLEVER they all are. Can't wait to see what spell you have cast and to find out if it comes true!

Hi Myra - and thank you - I think I should have cast a 'be everywhere at once' spell today as it would have been most helpful!
Love, Janice xx
Great party Janice!
I'll have to wait until I get home to have a cocktail. I'll have one of those nibbly things though.
And one my 'More time in the day' cakes. Which gives me enough time to go and check out all the other spells.
Rhoda
This is a brilliant idea and a fabulous party. I have just got in and can't wait to hop about and see what everyone has been up to. Just grabbing a cocktail and a quick dance to 'Devil Woman' first.
I wish you a whopping huge success with this novel. If it is anything like your others then it's sure to be a hit!
#voodoo parties rock!

Hope you're having a brilliant day Janice! This is a great idea and a super party! Cheers.
Lindsay x
Hi Rhoda - you clever cake maker and also spell maker you! I'll have a few of those 'more time fairy cakes' please - and you get about 90mins more time in each day with each cake eaten, you say...? Pure genious - and so delicious!
Love, Janice xx
Thank you Carol! I'm so impressed with everyone's spell making skills - yours included - you made me laugh so much this morning!
Do bring your mother along and we'll have another cocktail. I'll put 'Devil Woman' on - we can have a wee dance about!
Janice xx
Hi Lindsay, my lovely! I'm having a fantastic day thank you and it's all down to how wonderful and supportive and FUN everyone has been. Thanks so much!
Janice xx
Cool party! Thanks for inviting me to be a part of it. Looking forward to reading the book :)
Great party, Janice. I'm really looking forward to reading HDYV. All the very best of luck with it!
Thanks very much everyone - it's taken me all day but I finally got around to each and every blog to comment on your spells and tweet your links. I'm in awe of how clever you all are - and imaginative and unique - as not one spell was duplicated. It seems we all wish for different things in life!
I did empathise with many of the spells though - and my goodness if those spells work - then I want to be the first to know about it!
I'll catch you all later. Enjoy the music and the cocktails while I pop back to Twitter and see what the peeps are up to there using the hashtag #voodoo
Oh, did I mention that last time I looked, How Do You Voodoo? was at #21 in the Kindle free top 100 humour US chart...?! :)
You are all such a fantastic support and so much fun. Thank you!
Janice xx
Brilliant party, Janice! I've been hopping from place to place reading all the different spells, too. It's been a blast!
Wishing you a hugely successful launch for How Do You Voodoo?
Melanie xx
Cheers, Miss Janice :D
Congratulations on your book release; launches are simply glorious days, n'est-ce pas?!
You had me at Scotland and Hallowe'en, by the by. Other than France, and my dear California, I've yet to feel more at one with a location than Bonnie Scotland. (Of course, my Mum's fam is chock full of MacPhersons and Grimes; so, perchance it's an ancestral pull?) Anyhoo, I look forward to reading your novella!
Apropos to the rain, I wish I could conjure up some empathy :D Moi, I live at the beach in San Diego and, whilst it's bonkers-gorgeous all the time, I do crave a bit of the "dreich and dour" once in tartan moon.
LLAP,

Ooh, can I have The High Priestess please? Hope it's been a fab day Janice, it's a fab read. Such a brilliant idea and we've all had such fun! Lxxx
I just read your book & put this review on Amazon:
I found Janice Horton's novella, "How Do You Voodoo?" to be charming--or, to speak in this genre--bewitching & enchanting. It was a lovely two hour read.
Thank you Fishducky!! I'm so pleased and delighted that you enjoyed reading How Do You Voodoo? and that you took the time to write and put a review on Amazon for me - it's fantastic of you and I really appreciate it.

And the grand prize winner of the tartan Highland scented candle is:
Caroline James.
I'll be emailing the winners for their postal addresses over this weekend. Thanks everyone. I wish I had prizes for everyone who took part and I do hope you will enjoy reading your copy of How Do You Voodoo?
