FIRST INTERNATIONAL GIVEAWAY~ 4 winners get 4 things



Everything here has to do with the Guardian Legacy. If you're a reader, and love YA literature, then follow the guildelines below to be entered. AWAKENED, Book one of the Guardian Legacy, is the story of 16-year old girl who's never felt that she belongs anywhere but learns that belonging comes at a price and with a boat load of responsibilities. Or maybe it's about a girl who learns that you can't choose who you are or who you love?  Or maybe it's about a girl who discovers her destiny and rises to the challenge with courage and love in her heart.  You get to decide what the story tells you once you read it.  Read more at my site http://www.ednahwalters.com/

This giveaway is open to international participants too~ meaning anybody anywhere can enter it~YEAH!.

This week, you get:

1). A signed ARC of Awakened.

2). A Guardian Legacy T-shirt (black, female sizes small, medium, large or Xlarge)

3). A Guardian Legacy pen.

4). A Guardian Legacy bookmark

To enter, leave your name/e-mail and a repost link. Anyone who shows me some love here~my FB fanpage (started by a wonderful Australian lady)~and TAGS me gets an extra entry.  And as usual, if you reposts my contests on yourblog/Facebook/twitter you get entered for EACH LINK and your chances of winning goes up.

My Book Trailer

Here it is, Awakened book trailer.  Two and half days of sweat, despite the headache, tummy ache and sinus infection, we did it.

AWAKENED IS OUT!!!

OMG!!!  The 4 weeks I was told I had to wait until the book is released just turned into 4 days.  I got a call from my editor with the news that Awakened is now available on Amazon.  Soon it will appear on Barnes&Nobles, Borders and Waterstones for UK readers.  Yippeee! 

Should I remove the dust off the pom-poms and start cheering?  Heck no.  Honestly, when I first heard the news, I was like....no, no, no, this ain't hap'ning.  I need the four weeks to get the freaken word out there!!  I need more time!  More than 24 hours in a day!  How many times have we said these words when things are spiraling out of control.  Yep, that's exactly how I felt.

Guess what I'm doing while writing this.  I dare you.

Eating caramel macchiato ice-cream.  Amazing how that kind of decadence makes all the problems disappear.  I know, I know, that won't hold the demons at bay forever, but it sure beats screaming.  And I should be thrilled beyond words...I am.  I am.  Seriously, I...AM.  I'm just a bit overwhelmed right now.

I swore today was the day I'd go back to writing.  I'd ordered the rest of goodies for giveaways...see below.  Ordered more ARCs for bloggers and librarians, and all I needed to do was wait for some of the reviews to come in and call it good.  SIGH.

Sooooo, I'm going to finish the pint of ice-cream while watching The Big Bang Theory.  How's that for a perfect remedy.  Promise me ladies you'll show me some love and spread the word.  k??.
