Autumn's Harvest GIVEAWAY Hop - Day 1

Hello lovelies!! I have MULTIPLE giveaways going on so be sure to enter them all! Today is Day 1 of the Autumn's Harvest giveaway hop.

I asked some of my wonderful writer friends to tell me what they loved most about autumn and every day of the hop, I will feature a different book and their responses! On November 11, there will be a special post with my cover reveal for my debut Breaking the Nexus, which will include a separate giveaway.

I will be giving away a $15 Amazon GC AND Breaking the Nexus swag in this hop. Enter my giveaway using the rafflecopter below. To be eligible to win the grand prize, you MUST leave a comment on THIS POST only with your email address. Let's get started!


What do you love about Autumn and Fall? What does it remind you of? What about reading? Do you think it's a good subject to read? Tell us your favorite Autumn stories! Well, we authors are ready to share our favorite Autumn stories and why we love snuggling in the cold.  *wink* Starting on Friday and ending on Nov 12th, over 200 Authors and Bloggers will share their favorite things about those sexy men we know and love.

And while we do that, we are EACH doing a giveaway. Yep. There will be over 200 giveaways on each blog hosted by that Author or Blogger.

But that's not all....

We have THREE grand prizes. You as a reader can go to EACH blog and comment with your email address and be entered to win. Yep, you can enter over 200 times!

So why do I love autumn? I love the changing colors of the turning leaves. I adore the sound of the leaves crunching under my shoes, and I tend to pout if I step on a leaf and it doesn't crunch lol. Fall also holds a special place in my heart for being the season when I officially became an author <3


Today's feature book is my debut into the publishing world, an anthology titled Once Upon A Twisted Time that is brought to you by Moon Rose Publishing! It's a collection of twisted fairy tales and I'm sure you'll love it. 

Once Upon A Twisted Time...Buy it Now!


Think you know your fairytales? Think again. These aren’t your normal happily-ever-after. Within these pages, a murderous Little Mermaid gets her revenge, the Cinderella doesn’t really want to wear the slipper, Snow White is up to her eyes in industrial experiments, and the Beauty is in fact the Beast. 
This collection of four novellas will surprise you, make you gasp in horror, sigh with relief, and sit on the edge of your seat. And most of all…they will make you rethink everything you think you know about dark fairytales…



I asked a few of my friends what they loved best about autumn and here's what they had to say:

Miranda Stork: "I love autumn for lots of reasons, but I won't bore anyone with an essay. The colours of the landscape become a rich rainbow of reds and golds, there's always a scent of bonfires in the air, and it has that 'feel' of change about it. Plus it's nice to be able to get in from the cold and snuggle up in front of the fire. But also...my birthday is in autumn. So maybe I should love that the most. :)"


Tara S Wood: "My favorite thing about autumn is all the flavors! I love to cook and bake, and the start of autumn gets me going with all sorts of yummy things. Pumpkin bread, apple pies, cinnamon and caramel! The scents of the fall spices and the warm feelings of home and family are the best part of this season."


Caroline Levy: "What I love about Autumn. When the leaves fall from the trees making a big pile and jumping into it. The feeling of the wind in my hair and a very cold nose while out for a walk knowing there will the reward of a hot chocolate at the end."



Tomorrow I will feature the lovely K.S. Haigwood and Ella Medler's book, Eternal Island so stop back again!

    1. My comment 'poofed'! :( Ok - my favorite thing about Autumn is watching the trees change. Something that doesn't happen on every block in California. ;)

  4. I love the burst of colors! The fall earth tone colors are very festive and beautiful. I am lucky to live where you can see the seasons change. Unfortunately, at this moment I can’t recall where autumn was a major focus of a story. It has no drama that stands out really. I love reading any time so the season doesn’t matter.
    What a wonderful hop! Thanks for the opportunity to share and know you better. Take care.

    1. We get to watch the seasons change here too. And I'm with you Belinda, I can't think of too many that feature autumn much in the story itself. I tried really hard to think of one when I was picking books to feature and just gave up.

      Thanks for stopping by!
