It’s only one more week...!

 

 

It’s only one more week to The Spellbindingly Fun Blog Party – hurray!

Lots of you are now signing up for the party but it’s not too late to do so right up to the day itself as I’ll be adding to the list of spellbindingly fun party peeps all this week. See the guest list at the end of this post to see who has signed up so far!

Next Friday, 26^th October, I’ll have added the hyperlinks to all the names below so that with one magic click we can all pop over to the blogs taking part to see what Spellbinding Spells have been cooked up! Every participant will be in the draw for a fabulous prize and there will be Twitter prizes for RT's & MT's too. Hashtag #voodoo

This is how it works:

You make up whatever spell you want to – but fun ones only – no curses allowed.

Choose your ingredients – as many or as few as you like - from the Magic Ingredient List below.

If you want to add a spellbinding verse or show a picture of your object of desire that’s great too!

Post or schedule your spellbindingly fun spell to YOUR blog next Friday 26^th October.

But please let me know you are taking part by signing up on the form so that I can add YOUR name and YOUR blog link here at Spellbindingly Fun Blog Party HQ.

Party On!

 

Exciting Times...!

It’s been an exciting couple of weeks - with so many fabulous author friends launching books and hosting parties - some with debut novels and others adding to their repertoire!

I’ve been busy preparing for The Spellbindingly Fun Blog Party which is taking place here in two weeks’ time – it’s not too early for you to sign up – in fact, it will give you time to collect your spellbinding ingredients and think up that spell you want to cast. No curses though – only spellbinding fun allowed!

While preparing for the launch of How Do You Voodoo? I’ve been sending out ARC’s (advance reading copies) to those who expressed an interest in reading and reviewing before launch day. I must admit to feeling a wee bit nervous as those copies went out to readers and book bloggers. Novella length fiction is new for me and writing in only one viewpoint (the heroine’s) is new too, as I usually use several viewpoints in my longer length fiction to tell the story. So you can imagine my delight when reviews popped up on book blogs and on Amazon this week. You can find out more about How Do You Voodoo? and read some of those reviews here:

I’ve also been writing up lots of launch week guest posts and answering lots of questions about being an author, about research and about the writing, and what I love about being an Indie – the pros and the cons. Well, I’ve answered that particular question more fully on Victoria Connelly’s blog, where next Thursday 18th October, I’m a guest as part of her fabulous ‘Indie Month’ feature. There are some cons of course but there are mostly pros – and especially over these past couple of weeks - being an Indie author is proving to be a very exciting career indeed. Please check out and 'like' my Author Facebook Page for midweek news features and links.

So what are your plans over the next couple of weeks?

Will you be atending the Spellbindingly Fun Blog Party perhaps and casting your own spell…?

Love, Janice x

 

Party Planning!

It is still several weeks away from Friday 26th October - the official launch day of my Halloween Special Novella – How Do You Voodoo? but I’m already planning The Spellbindingly Fun Blog Party!

 

Launching on Friday 26th October!

 

The Spellbindingly Fun Blog Party works like this:

I invite you to join The Spellbindingly Fun Blog Party by asking you to sign up on the form below.
All you need to do is:

Fill in the Join The Party form to let me know you are participating.

Think about what sort of spell you’d like to cast? A Day Off Work Spell? A Love Spell? A More Chocolate Spell? Lots of New Shoes Spell? A Less Stressful Life Spell? Whatever – it’s up to you!

 

AS LONG AS IT’S SPELLBINDINGLY FUN – NO CURSES ALLOWED!

 

 

Then: have a read through all the spellbindingly fun ingredients listed on the magic scroll below and choose the ones you need to make your spellbinding recipe. Use as many as you want or need.

Make up a spell-like verse. Example (for a love spell) ‘I call to the powers below and above, North, East, South, West. In the name of love.’ Only be as elaborate and inventive as you like!

On Friday 26^th October YOU post on YOUR OWN BLOG your Spellbindingly Fun Spell – include your ‘magic recipe’ and your ‘spellbinding verse’ and even, if you want to, a photo or picture of the object of your desire, and then everyone  participating in the Spellbindingly Fun Blog Party can pop over to your blog to see what it is!

That's because...

On Friday 26^th October I will post my own Spellbindingly Fun Spell here on my blog together with a full list of all the blog links of those participating – that’s why you need to sign up – so c’mon – why wait – get signed up now!!

 

I promise you spellbindingly good fun and prizes!

 

 

Next week I’ll be telling you lots more about my romantic and magical novella How Do You Voodoo?
