CONFERENCE SIGNINGS and DECEPTION Audio Winners

Posted by dbreynolds on May 14, 2018

I’m heading to the 2018 RT Booklovers Convention this week, at the Peppermill Resort in Reno, NV. They have a full agenda of panels and presentations, and I’m excited to be going. But mostly, I’m excited about the GIANT BOOK FAIR on Saturday, May 19, 10:30am – 2:30pm. Tickets for the Book Fair are only $10 (free if you show a valid library card) and there will be hundreds of authors signing, including yours truly. I’ll be signing four (4) titles which will be available for purchase at the Book Fair (Shifter Planet, Kato, Lucifer, and Quinn) but you can also bring up to 10 of your own books into the Book Fair to be signed. You do have to check those books in, so make sure you arrive in time to do that. I’ve been to many of these book fairs, and there’s a lot going on. Lots of authors, lots of readers. So, I hope to see my readers there, too.

The three (3) winners for my DECEPTION audio giveaway have all been notified and received their prizes.

Looking a little ways into the future, I’ll be at the RWA National Conference in Denver, CO, July 18-21, including their Literacy Autographing event, which will be on Saturday, July 21, from 3:00-5:00pm, at the Sheraton Downtown Denver Hotel. Admission to the signing is free, but since it’s a fundraising event for several literacy organizations, readers are not allowed to bring in books from home. Authors will be signing two titles, which for me will be the VIGNETTES, Vol. 2, and QUINN.

And now I’m going back to work on GABRIEL, because with the con this week, I might miss some writing time.

I hope all of the moms out there had a wonderful Mother’s Day. I’m not a mom, but I have friends and family who are, and they tell tales. You might enjoy this SNL skit about the difference between what happens in the delivery room and what moms tell their kids.

I’ll see you all back here next week!

DECEPTION AUDIO AND CONFERENCES!

Posted by dbreynolds on May 7, 2018

DECEPTION’s audiobook is now available! This is a favorite among my own books, and as I listened to Nick J. Russo’s narration, I loved it all over again. I hope you will, too. And to kickstart the love, I’m giving away three (3) copies of the audiobook. Yep, three! Because I love this book and want to share it. Here are the rules …

1. Send an email to dbreynoldswriter@gmail.com with DECEPTION AUDIO on the subject line.
2. Your return email address MUST BE A VALID EMAIL ADDRESS.
3. All entries must be received by midnight, May 12, 2018.
5. Three (3) winners will be selected at random from among qualified entries received by the deadline.
6. Winners will be notified by return email, and will have five (5) days to respond, after which a new winner will be chosen.
7. Each winner will receive an Audible.com download code for one (1) audiobook of DECEPTION by D. B. Reynolds.
8. One entry per person. All duplicate entries will be deleted.
9. Good luck!

The winner of my QUINN Newsletter giveaway has been notified. She now has five (5) days to respond, or a new winner will be selected.

I’ll be at the RT Booklovers Convention in Reno, NV from May 17-19, including their Giant Book Fair on May 19, 10:30am-2:00pm. You don’t have to be registered for the conference to attend the Book Fair. Admission is $10, or FREE if you show a valid library card. I’ll be signing QUINN, KATO, LUCIFER, and SHIFTER PLANET. I’ll also have bookmarks and some other cool promo items to give away. You CAN bring PERSONAL books to be signed, as well. There is a limit of ten (10) books per person, per entry.

I’m busy working on GABRIEL’s story, which is a crossover between my VAMPIRES and my STONE WARRIORS. I’m also getting my house ready for some significant renovations, which has me cleaning out what feels like every closet in my house! Not to mention books. Lots and lots of books need to be boxed so the shelves can be moved. ::sigh:: My contractor says it will all be worth it.

Okay, I’m going back to GABRIEL now. Have a wonderful week!

xoxo

IT’S ALL ABOUT QUINN

Posted by dbreynolds on April 23, 2018

QUINN is nearly here and Ireland will never be the same. (I hope. 😀 ) To celebrate QUINN’s debut on April 27th, my publisher is running a giveaway for an e-book copy of QUINN, plus a lot of other goodies, including this adorable vampire hedgehog. I want you to imagine that … a vampire hedgehog. Kind of gives you chills, doesn’t it? But this one is stuffed and fluffy.

——————-

Here are the details of my publisher’s giveaway …

Giveaway runs from Sunday, April 22nd, to Thursday, April 26th!

One winner will be selected on Friday, April 27th!

Prize includes:

——————-

This publisher giveaway is for U.S. entries only, but you know I never forget my international readers. My newsletter will be out on QUINN’s release day (April 27) with an excerpt and a new giveaway for an autographed copy of QUINN that will be open internationally. No hedgehog, though.

You should also know that the PRINT version of QUINN is now available for pre-order from both AMAZON and BN.com.

And with that I’m going back to GABRIEL. I’m already half in love with my new warrior, looking forward to bringing him to California and writing the rest of his story.

I’ll see you all on Thursday, with QUINN!

DECEPTION, RAPHAEL, RELENTLESS AND QUINN! (so much news!)

Posted by dbreynolds on April 16, 2018

First, QUINN is almost here! I’m excited and nervous and I hope you all love him as much as I do.

DECEPTION’s Audiobook just popped up on Audible and Amazon! Yay! You can find all the buy links, including Audible.com, HERE!

With only two weeks left until QUINN makes his mark, it’s time to go back to where it all started … with RAPHAEL. And to celebrate, his e-book is on super sale for a VERY short period of time—only US$0.99 on all digital platforms.

Once again, since some of the events in RELENTLESS are significant for QUINN, I’m giving away a copy of the RELENTLESS e-novella. The winner of the second giveaway (last week) has already been notified. This week will be the third and final giveaway, because it’s almost time for QUINN’s release on April 27th. (Yay!)

Here are the rules for this THIRD WEEK of the snap giveaway!

NOTE: I HAD A LOT OF ENTRIES IN THE TWO PREVIOUS WEEKS, SO IF YOU ENTERED EITHER OF THE LAST TWO WEEKS, YOU DON’T NEED TO ENTER AGAIN. I’LL ROLL ALL OF EXISTING NON-WINNING ENTRIES INTO THIS FINAL WEEK!

For those who missed entering already, here are the rules.

1. Send an email to dbreynoldswriter@gmail.com with RELENTLESS 2018 on the subject line.
2. Your return email address MUST BE A VALID EMAIL ADDRESS.
3. All entries FOR WEEK THREE must be received by midnight, April 20, 2018.
5. One (1) winner will be selected at random from among qualified entries received by the deadline.
6. Winner will be notified by return email, and will have five (5) days to respond, after which a new winner will be chosen.
7. The winner will receive one (1) e-book copy of RELENTLESS by D. B. Reynolds.
8. One entry per person. All duplicate entries will be deleted.
9. Good luck!

And finally . . . it was windy as hell here last week. Although I’ll take that over the April snow/sleet/ice storm that hit almost everywhere else. Besides, the wind doesn’t matter much when you’re a hermit-like writer sitting in her comfy chair tapping away on a laptop. (That would be yours truly, btw.) I’m well into GABRIEL, who, just to remind you, is the third of my STONE WARRIORS. I’m particularly excited about his book, because it’s a crossover between my VAMPIRES and my STONE WARRIORS, which means Raphael and Nick get to play in the same sandbox again. Cyn would probably just leave town, if she didn’t think they’d kill each other without her.

I think that’s enough news for now, so I’ll be back next week with more on GABRIEL and especially QUINN!!

Until then, stay warm.

xoxo

QUINN! and THE SNAP GIVEAWAYS CONTINUE!

Posted by dbreynolds on April 9, 2018

It’s April 9th! That means three things … (1) I paid my property taxes today. (booooo!) (2) My tax returns are due this week (waiting on accountant) and (3) QUINN is almost here! (yaaaaaay!) Don’t forget to PRE-ORDER YOUR COPY! I’m so, so excited to share his story with you.

As I mentioned last week, some of the events in RELENTLESS are significant for QUINN, so I’ve decided to do a RELENTLESS giveaway for every week leading up to QUINN’s release on April 27th. Last week’s winner has already been verified, but the snap giveaway continues.

Here are the rules for the SECOND WEEK of this snap giveaway!

NOTE: I HAD A LOT OF ENTRIES LAST WEEK, SO IF YOU ENTERED LAST WEEK, YOU DON’T NEED TO ENTER AGAIN. I’LL ROLL ALL OF LAST WEEK’S NON-WINNING ENTRIES INTO THIS WEEK!

9. Good luck!

I had someone email me this week about a package sent, and I had to confess that I hadn’t been to the Post Office, because I’ve barely left my cave (aka my house) lately. I’m nearing the finish line on Shifter Planet 2 … a few more days left. After that, I’ll sit in the sunshine (under an umbrella) for a day or two and then it’s back into the cave for GABRIEL (Stone Warriors 3.) Mein Gott, what was I thinking? 😀

And just to prove I really am certifiably insane, I’ve taken the first steps toward a long-delayed renovation of my house. I’m doing it in stages, because I need at least one working bathroom and a place to write! And I’m taking a long break between the two halves of the house. But I’m replacing all the floors, which essentially means packing up like you’re moving, including all my books, because the bookcases/shelves have to move. There are, I don’t know, hundreds, maybe THOUSANDS of books? ::sigh:: I’m looking forward to the end result, but not the process. My contractor keeps trying to cheer me up. lol

I’m heading back into the cave now. I might have to scout out a real cave once they start tearing up my house. Will gutting the walls bring out bugs? ::shudder::

Okay, back to work! See you next week!
