To celebrate the release of ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE, and my new cover for book three which is OMG-jaw-drop awesome (the hottest one yet, I kid you not, but I can't show it yet. Soon, though!), I'm going to hold  giveaways every day this week...maybe even more than once a day. 

And, in other good news, the Publisher's Weekly blog has selected ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE as one of their "blurb Wednesday" books. You can read their blurb by Joyce here: http://www.publishersweekly.com/blog/880000288/post/1340025734.html

Now, to the contest....

Today's Get Your Grave On instant winner quiz question #1:

What is the name of the ghost who coerces Cat into drinking a bottle of moonshine in Halfway to the Grave?

First person who replies with the correct answer wins a signed copy of ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE (yes, I will ship internationally).

Read, set, Grave! :) 


***Congrats to [info]rissatoo   for the correct answer of Winston, who was the horny alcoholic ghost from Halfway to the Grave :)***

They won't let me show it yet. Still working on tweaks with the fronts, etc, but the artwork is there, and yowza!

Trust me, I'll show it the minute I get permission.

Well you've only dropped MAJOR hints that he'd be showing up and honestly, if he wasn't in it, would i be reading?? :) Hell ya!

I totally knew that Liam/Ian connection; esp, when you let it slip unintentionally! ;)

Oh no you don't.... she doesn't have 'permission' (although, I give her all the permission in the world. Because I'm a mommy, that's why!) :)

Do you know how long it took me to put together that promo post? I so deserve a peek at the cover.

Jeaniene, do not force me to phone you. :D

Drat *stomps foot* And I just reread the book the other night!! *scowls*

One local bookseller was already sold out of your book when I got there last night, just before 6:00pm. There wasn't even a copy in the back. So, I dragged the Hubby to the other bookseller in town. This is what was left of their copies:
Photobucket

I started reading it about 8:30pm-ish. My poor husband, I kept waking him up because I was laughing so hard. I finally finished the book late last night.

Well done. VERY well done. And thank you. I can't wait to read it again.

I got my copy last night! I can't wait to read it. The teaser at the front--when you posted it on your LJ months ago--is what made me pick up Halfway to the Grave, so I told my friends that last night. They wanted to hear it, so I read it to them, and now they want to read Halfway to the Grave! Hooray! :)
