Seekerville Kindle and book giveaway at Novak Diabetes Auction

I'm excited to participate in Brenda Novak's May fundraiser for diabetes. An important cause and a great opportunity to get wonderful books, gifts and tickets!

I'm part of Seekerville's giveaway that includes a Kindle and the books on the left. I donated an autographed copy of Courting the Doctor's Daughter and Wanted: A Family. Some of the Seeker's books are paperbacks, some are eBooks, but all are great reads!

Here's the link to register and bid when the auction opens May 1: http://brendanovak.auctionanything.com/Bidding.taf?_function=detail&Auction_uid1=2168958

I'm also donating another autographed copy of these books for the Love Inspired Authors' donation. http://brendanovak.auctionanything.com Scroll down to find Love Inspired Authors to click to see what we're donating for the auction.

The auction runs the entire month of May. Successful bids can be paid using Paypal. Don't miss out!

Blessings,

A "Coming Out" party for Courting the Doctor's Daughter

I had a wonderful time at the "Coming Out" party that Val and Gene hosted for the May release of Courting the Doctor's Daughter. I thought you might like seeing some of the fun that evening. Val, Lynn and I anticipate all that wonderful food!

Here I am with the print of the cover done by artist James Griffin that's now hanging in my office.

With my critique partner and friend, Shirley Jump. Shirley has 28 books in print. She's taught me so much about craft.

A toast to Courting the Doctor's Daughter.

I wasn't the only one who had fun.

When did a cover ever look so good? :-)

Thanks to all my friends who celebrated the release of my second book and have been a wonderful support over the years.

Blessings, Janet

A huge thank you!!

A huge thank you to friends and family who've helped get the word out about my second release Courting the Doctor's Daughter!

My cousin Cathy sent me a picture of her with my book in a Wal-Mart store. Love it! Thanks, Cathy. Hope you enjoy Courting the Doctor's Daughter.

So many of you have passed along bookmarks to friends and family, even sticking them in my books on store shelves. I'm waving at Judie Oberheuser in Texas for all the efforts she's made to publicize my books. And to Pam in AZ. Whether you passed out one bookmark or a 100, I'm grateful.

If you enjoy my books, tell others. That's the best way to create buzz.

God has blessed me with wonderful people in my life, but one particular person has made the biggest impact on my writing. Thanks to Shirley Jump, my dear friend, a wonderful writer and critique partner who's taught me so much about craft.

Blessings, Janet
