Up and Coming

Posted on 12:00 AM by Unknown
How's everyone's summer going?

My vacay is rapidly coming to an end. Back to the ER fun this weekend and I will be working July 4th as well-- so please, no blowing off your fingers! Firework safety first. And also, watch those kidos in the pool. Summertime holiday gatherings are notorious for drowning incidents.

Here's where I've been this week and you might find some interesting posts and new blogs to follow. Check these out. Some are offering Giveaways for Proof.

Proof is being considered for a Book Club! You can vote here:

ACFW Blog: Should a Christian Market Themselves?

Crime Fiction Collective: Medical Pitfalls Authors Fall Into.

Lisa Jordan's Blog: Humor Me. A good laugh and a Giveaway!

Shannon Vannatter's Blog: An interview with Nathan and Lilly. Giveaway!

At Redwood's this week: We're fielding author questions!

Monday: Will the ER do a DNA test? What do you think?

Wednesday: The Pesky Reporter and the Wildfire.

Friday: A Minor Detail: Emancipation Issues

Hope everyone has a fantastic week and Happy early July 4th!
