Oh, December…a time to reflect on the year that has gone by, bake holiday goodies, and try to catch up on reading all the freaking AMAZING books that came out over the last 12 months! I think it’s safe to say 2012 was a banner year for debut authors and I’ve been trying to think of a way to say thank you to all of the readers, book bloggers, and librarians who have maintained a steady level of enthusiasm for us throughout the year.
The other group I need to thank is The Apocalypsies. I never expected a bunch of competing debut authors to be so warm, understanding, and supportive during what sometimes truly felt like an apocalyptic year. Our group took 2012 by storm and our follow-up books will continue crashing series and standalones into 2013, 2014, 2015…and beyond! I’m honored to have shared this experience with all of you.
It seems appropriate to offer one last giveaway in 2012 that gives readers a chance to discover the books of my fellow debut authors.
So!
Please go to the Apocalypsies website to review our 150+ titles, then come back here and enter to win the Apocalypsies book of your choice! That’s right–ANY book (as long as it’s an Apocalypsies debut)!
This giveaway is international, so enter with abandon!
Thank you for making 2012 a year to remember for me, THROUGH TO YOU, and my fellow debut authors. <3
