Win a book!

Just a quick note here before I head back to my current work in progress. I am loving it! It's called Lady in Waiting and the historical thread in this one is the demure, dulcet and doomed Lady Jane Grey. Brave girl. . .

The Shape of Mercy is a Book of the Year finalist in the American Christian Fiction Writers Women's Fiction category. Yay! To celebrate, I am giving away a signed copy here and also on my regular blog

To enter, just drop a shout in the comments section here by Thursday, July 30. You can enter on the regular blog, too, if you want.

And just so you know, The Shape of Mercy didn't win the RITA award at the RWA national conference last week in D.C. The accomplished Nora Roberts won in our category, but it really was a thrill to be a finalist alongside her.

Have a great weekend. Abigail is up on Monday. She's been secretive lately. Wonder what's up. . .

I have a watertight excuse to win your book - it is not in New Zealand yet!! And my daughters are 35 the day of your giveaway (and I am 64 on September 2nd)so it would be real birthday gift from a favourite author. So what a great way to celebrate a trio of strong Christian women who have overcome challenges and still stay true.

I can't read this blog yet because I don't want to spoil the story - but I would like a second chance to win it as above!!

I stayed up until 2 a.m. last night finishing the book. I read the whole thing yesterday and I was so moved. If only I had discovered your books before now! I must admit, I'm so often disappointed with books from the "Christian" section, but I loved your redemptive story and gorgeous writing. I wish I could meet Mercy Hayworth!

Me, me, pick me! You have blessed my life already by your generous time at Christian Writers and by your great "voice" and word choice in every phrase.
