2 Loree Lough Books Up For Grabs

Over at Prairie Chicks Write Romance today, inspirational romance author Loree Lough is guest blogging about Book Signings.

A veteran of over 100 book signings, she'll tell you the most effective way to hold this type of marketing promotion.

Loree is giving away 2 books in the Love Finds You series so head on over and leave a comment to get your name in for one of the 2 books pictured here. And Loree's got a very unique way of picking the winners which I know because she told us over at the Inkwell on Thurs. But I'm not telling you here... you'll have to go to Prairie Chicks and find out for yourself.

Loree's question for today is this:

What would inspire you to attend a book signing… and what’s most likely to keep you away?

So head over to Prairie Chicks Write Romance to answer the question, ask a question, or just to leave your email address for the draw. You don't even need a reason and we'll be very happy you did.

NaNo Day 8 Progress Report

Today is the 9th of November and I've been at NaNoWriMo for a week. I finally took a day off on Sat to attend the the Saskatchewan Romance Writers monthly meeting which was being held in Davidson instead of Saskatoon so I didn't have to drive so far. I left at 9 am and got back home at 9 pm.

Fired up from all the coffee I drank enroute, I started writing at 10 pm Sat night and kept at it until 0430 in the morning, then continued yesterday when I awoke.

So, here's my NaNoWriMo Progress Report up to and including Day 8:

Project: Revising & Adding to Emma’s Outlaw

Goal: Need 65,000 words to finish (90,000 Total)

Nano Words so far: 11,834 (38,624 Total)

Nano Goal: 18% complete (43% Overall)

I seem to be revising more that I imagined. However, I thought it would be passive writing which was a fault of mine when I wrote the first draft, but I'm also adding sensory details and filling out my characters.

I really like the way the book is coming together. And the feedback from the excerpt I posted on Prairie Chicks Write Romance last Wed was a good boost to my morale.

The week coming up is a busy one:
