Follow Friday

Before I get to this week's question, I want to remind everyone of two giveaways I have going on.  Win a SIGNED PB copy of Embraced by Blood by Laurie London here.  The chance to win a digital copy of The Hand He Dealt by Tanith Davenport here.  There's not many entries on either giveaway so your odds of winning are pretty good, so please feel free to enter.


This is the day of the week where we get to know each other better by answering a question devised by our lovely hostess Parajunkee.  We also gain new followers by joining each other's sites via GFC, so please let me know if you're a new follower since I automatically follow back.  And now for this week's question....

Q. Name 3 authors that you would love to sit down and spend an hour or a meal with just talking about either their books or get advice on writing from?

A:  I'd love to hang out with JR Ward (her BDB has turned me into an obsessed Brother fangirl), Julia Quinn (I admire her witty dialogue between her book's couples), and Sherrilyn Kenyon (another paranormal world I'm obsessed with via her Dark-Hunters).

    Thanks for stopping by my blog, I'm following you now too! And I'll be sure to check out your giveaways. The Stand by Stephen King is probably a book I can re-read a billion times!

    JR Ward - is it bad to say I don't know her books? Hmm.

    Here's my FF http://www.stuckinbooks.com/2011/07/follow-friday-7-22-11.html

    Those sounds like great choices. I'd love to chat about writing with more paranormal people, just to get a feel of the future of the market.

    Thanks for stopping by earlier! New follower here :D

    Hey! Thanks for stopping by my blog :) I'm following you now as well!

    I don't think I'm familiar with the 3 authors you chose, though Julia Quinn sounds awfully familiar ... hmmm.

    I loved Sherrilyn Kenyon's early books. I'm listening to a podcast interview of her now, interestingly enough. She says she was homeless with a new baby (living out her car, it sounds like) while she was trying to make it as a writer. Wow! I can't even imagine!

    I've actually never heard of the authors you chose. Time to do some research... lol.

    The Black Dagger Brotherhood...my heart just quickened. One of my all time favorites! Can't believe I haven't read any of the Dark Hunters series, I really need to find more time to read.
