200 Followers Giveaway!

Wow, what a journey this has been. A little less than six months ago I left blogging then promptly came back with this site. It was a harder and longer struggle to get to 200 followers this time around, but I've made even more incredible friendships then I ever thought I would and it's been a true blessing to have this blog.

I couldn't let this milestone go without thanking those of you who have stuck around through my spradicness. If I could, I would grant each of you the wish of a lifetime. But I can't, so how does a $10 amazon gift card sound? Or maybe a three chapter critique?


Prize # 1 -- $10 gift Card



Prize #2 -- 3 chapter critique.

If either of those things sound good to you, leave me a comment with which prize you would like (or if you want the option of either/or, that works too) and I'll put your name in the hat. Winners will be drawn and announced on Tuesday June 26th. Good luck to everyone who enters!

Hi lovely mama! Congrats on your 200+ followers! You are awesomesauce and they know it (we know it :D )

I wouldn't mind a gift card (now that I'm here). :)

Btw, I gave you a blog award. Not a bribe, just merely coincidental, though if it helps my case for winning that Amazon card, then ok, yeahhhhh... Hee!

Well, I found your blog with great timing, didn't I? I was reading my critique group partner Shallee's blog and decided to blog hop by clicking on the people who'd left comments. Good luck with getting your 200 followers. :) I just started blogging again after having baby #2. We writing mommies have to stick together! :)

Did I get you with that click-bait title? I always fall for those dang things. Anyway, this is a regularly (or not so regularly in my case) scheduled update. First and foremost I'd like to draw your attention to a fancy new box on the right-hand side. Yes, I'm starting a newsletter. As of now it won't be more than once a month. I'd love it if you signed up! And oh yeah: There will be a free novella if you sign up! Eventually, because I'm still working on it. Quality, folks. Second, I've started a review group on Facebook. If you like receive free copies of my books in exchange for a review, please contact me! (email: author.jabennett @ gmail.com) Third, I've update my books tab with links, so check that out too if you get a chance. Until next time!

The Noveling Journey

Image
cr: Diter Laskowski This past weekend I spent 10+ hours in a minivan with four small children. One of those children is only eighteen months old. On top of being squirmy, said child had started antibiotics for an ear infection only the day before. He can also scream very loud. As one must do with such an experience, I tried to find the positive. It was either that or breakdown and sob which wouldn't do anyone good. What I came to realize in the anxiety to and from my destination, was that I had been going about noveling all wrong. And trust me, it wasn't a negative thought. One thing I know about road trips is that if I want to get somewhere, I have to keep going. Stopping at Buc-ee's is really fun. It's great to stretch my legs and buy myself some beaver nuggets, but it's not going to get me anywhere. The longer I hang out at Buc-ee's, the later I'll show up. Writing is the same. Not for everyone, but for me it is. Social media is great. I actua...
