Yep, it’s already that time. Okay, so it’s past that time by about a day but what matters is that the December issue is finally up on the site.
WHAT’S NEW
Month-At-A-Glance:
Have you noticed that the releases aren’t grouped in any particular order except by genre. That’s because I put the pages together as I get the reviews in OR if I received the book early enough to determine that I should have a review for it by the go live date.
Here’s the problem with my no order presentation–no one knows what book is on the next page or what rating it received until they stumble upon it. Hey, I’m easy, I don’t mind that kind of surprises but some folks don’t. So for my visitors who want to see the books based on their rating so they can cherry pick the reviews they want to read, I’ve added a Month-At-A-Glance page to all the genres (Mystery will be coming later once I start getting the December reviews for them).
Weekly Giveaway:
I’m giving away 6 fabulous releases, all books featured in the December issue. Not only are the books featured on the Home Page but they are all designated with the easy to spot WIN symbol. If the link on the pages don’t work, you can email me at contests at theseasonforromance dot com to enter. Please include your first and last name. On the subject line, please type the title of the book you’re entering to win. If you include your snail mail address, you don’t have to contact me again if you win.
‘Tis The Season Writing Contest Finals:
Today begins the first day of voting in ‘Tis The Season Writing Contest. There are 11 really fine stories posted so I urge you go read, rate and comment. One gifted aspiring author will receive a $100 Visa Gift Card and a 25 page critique of their WIP from their choice of participating editors and agent.
I like the site and love the festival look. Great job!
Hi Bev,
I keep getting my mail returned to me for ‘Enter me to win THE DUKE’S NIGHT OF SIN’ . Why? Thanks.
I love snowflakes!!
Hi Mel,
Try it now!
Bev, I am in total awe that you do all this. I have trouble updating my simple websites, LOL. I love the books at a glance feature!
Thanks, Samantha! And Maggie dear, I’m not even sure how I do it. I know I need another 6 or 8 hrs in my day to feel like I’m getting it ALL done. It is easier though, because I’m not on any external writing deadlines. The joys of not being under contract. Sigh. 😉
I really love the new month-at-a-glance feature. It makes it really easy to check out the books and reviews.
And I also love the new winter look to the site! I’m looking forward to browsing the December issue.
Looks like a lot of great books coming up.
so mnay good books!
