Hello, all! As many of you know, reading is an amazing way to really improve your writing skills and stretch your creativity to new lengths! Unfortunately, reading can also become a fairly expensive habit once your local library’s shelves have been depleted of new stories.
Many authors have recognized this and to try to help this situation, they will offer their books as giveaway prizes on blogs. Many times these books will come straight from the author, who will even take the time to sign the book for you. The trick is to find the giveaway blogs.
A really good one is ‘A Christian Writer’s World,’ run by Lena Dooley. Dooley is an author herself, having written many historical romances like, ‘Maggie’s Journey,’ ‘Mary’s Blessing,’ and the soon-to-be-released, ‘Catherine’s Pursuit.’ While all the books given away on this blog are Christian, many of them could be sold as regular fiction because they are definitely not overly spiritual. The link to this blog is: http://lenanelsondooley.blogspot.com/
There are several other blogs like this. To find them, simply Google search it. Just make sure it is a legitimate giveaway blog.
Remember to be preparing your submissions for publication in the magazine! I know they will all be great!
