A Fun Holiday Read - and Two Chances to Win a Book!
Acid Christmas is the latest release by my writer support group co-host, Charlotte Dune. This novel was a lot of fun - a bit different than your average holiday read!
An apocalyptic snowstorm that leaves everyone stranded in Toronto airport, strange lights in the sky outside, and even some Toronto raccoons! And yes there is sex and drugs. As this isn't the usual women's fiction that I recommend, read my full review on BookBub to see if this one's for you.
If you want a well-written escape from reality type of holiday read, Acid Christmas is just the right amount of weird.
Here's me, being inspired to make a silly video about it while stranded in Mexico City airport!
I'm thrilled to offer you a chance to win a copy, signed by the author. Just click this link to participate!

For Writers Only
For the last 3 months, I've had the privilege of delivering the my first marketing program for writers, 12 Weeks to Book Launch Success.
We are just wrapping up the Founders Edition of the program, with some great testimonials. Students are saying it was a "resounding success", "worth every penny", "invaluable" and "probably the best money I've spent". And they all left with the ability to put together a complete book launch plan. All of which makes me so happy!
I was in Vegas last week at the 20Books Self-Publishing Conference, where I took all of the advanced marketing classes. I picked up lots of new marketing tips for my second round of the program!
I intend to open registration this December for a new round of the 12 Weeks to Book Launch Success program which will start in January. The timing is ideal if you have a book launch planned in mid to end of 2024 or in 2025.
Last time the open spots sold out in 4 days, so you definitely want to be on the wait list if you might be interested.

And a last (free) tip for writers!
Lilian Sue is an amazing PR leader who helped me with the Publicity part of my program. She has a new free webinar series for authors on Amplifying Your Author Influence, in collaboration with confidence coach and editor Kirsten McNeil.
The new program includes access to a free Ignite Your Influence on the Global Stage 30 Day Challenge. Check it out and join here!
Lastly Just for Fun!
A few quick TikTok videos from last month (Dia de Muertos time!) in San Miguel:

In gratitude - and again all the best wishes of the season,
