Birthday/Anniversary Giveaway!

Today is a special day for me.  It's the day I was born!  Yay!  I'm really happy about that ;)  But it's also a special day for a second reason.  One year ago today, my debut novel, CONQUEST, went live!  With those two things happening on one date, how can I not want to celebrate?

This past year has been a wild ride with CONQUEST and my other novels getting published.  So many people have welcomed me and my books with kindness and friendship, and I'll always be grateful for that.  And though these words seem small in comparison to what others have done in taking their time to read my stories, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

To celebrate my birthday and CONQUEST's one year anniversary, I'd like to offer a giveaway.  One lucky person will have the chance to win a set of all Conquest novels in print or ebook, winner's choice.  If the winner chooses print, I will sign all three copies.  To enter the contest, just comment on this post that you'd like to be put in the running.  If you comment as "anonymous", please put your name or another way I can identify you in case you win.  Or since I know blogs can be finicky about letting comments post, you can also email me at s.j.frost3@gmail.com.  Just put "contest" or "giveaway" in the subject.  To give everyone in different timezones a chance, I'll accept entries up until 12:00 pm Eastern U.S. time on October 23rd.  I'll also announce the winner that same Saturday. 

And now, let the party begin!  Good luck to all who enter!
