Oh, my lovelies, I have so many cool things in store for you this hot July.
(Well, maybe it’s hot in your neighborhood. Palatine’s still trying to break 80. And avoid premature-death-by-hail-stone.)
Ahem.
The Sizzling Summer Author Extravaganza is here!
Fellow Omnific Author Lisa Sanchez is hosting a month of guest interviews and giveaways. Here’s the complete list of upcoming author guest posts, and you can see my name is tucked in there. In fact, I’ll be posting next Wednesday, and doing a very special giveaway for military families – and I will need your help! So please pop over then, and every day, for some great interviews and helpful posts from Omnific authors and a chance to win books, swag, and other cool stuff.
Hop over today, and every day in July!
(I’ll keep the button up on the side post to remind you.)
Omni author-to-be Linda Cunningham (her novel Small Town Girl is under contract with Omnific) is up first today with some tips and encouragement for aspiring authors!
Why are all these Omni authors banding together in this sizzling extravaganza? Beyond the fact that they are generally fun and extraordinarily cool to be around?
*whispers* We have an Anthology coming out (two actually).
On Tuesday, after you’ve had all the hot dogs and parades you can stand, check back. I’ll be making the big announcement then!
Meanwhile, Happy Fourth of July to all my U.S. friends! And for those of you non-U.S. types, feel free to eat a hot dog in honor of the birth of our country.
Or not. It’s all about the freedom, people.
Thanks for the pimpage, Susan! July should be a blast! Can't wait for the anthologies to come out 😀
Holy huge hail, batman!
And sounds like a party coming up!
It is, actually, Canada Day today! So we should all have a donut today in celebration. And then on the 4th we can have American hotdogs. First things first. 🙂
@Lisa I'm looking forward to our month of fun!
@Peggy IKR? Those were pulled down from the weather channel! We made the news!
@Bryan Donuts before hot dogs! You Canadians know how to do things right. 🙂
*marks calendar for big announcement* *uses Arnold voice* I'll be back.
Scary looking hailstones!
And I'm with Bryan (waves to Bryan) — Today is Canada Day, break out the donuts!!!
This July event sounds like such fun (and such good incentive to keep reading and writing through the long, hot summer days. Or not hot, as the case may be.)
Yikes that's some huge hail! And congrats all you Omnific authors for banding together!
We had 60s and rain all last week and today we might hit 100. Crazy weather!

Waves to elizabethanne.
We should also eat some Canadian bacon covered in maple syrup for. You know, to cover the food groups. And yes, I'm counting maple syrup as a fruit, since it comes from a tree. Liquid fruit.
@LisaGG Bahaha! 🙂
@Elizabeth Time to take the mini laptop to the pool…
@Erica Maybe your 100 deg day is headed our way. Happy 4th!
@Bryan Bacon AND donuts. That's like Christmas morning in my house.
Thanks for the links, Susan. I'll follow and am looking forward to reading your interview. Those hail balls are huge. Hope you get nice weather in time for the 4th. It's about 106 in the High Dessert of So. Calif. today. Have a great holiday weekend.
We're not getting much of a summer this year in the Great White North. (Happy Birthday, Canada!)
Hail has been much of a threat. Or sunburn, for that matter. (whine, whine)
Hope everyone has a spendid long weekend!
@Lyn I used to work in the High Desert of CA – they have their own brand of dry heat!
@Cinette Happy Birthday Canada!
I love that our Canada Day & your Independence Day are always on the same weekend – all kinds of reasons to celebrate 🙂
Thanks for the anthology alert. Very exciting. Happy 4th of July.
@Jemi Yay for Canada! Hope you have a lovely weekend up there!
@Leslie Happy 4th! 🙂
I'll be there, Sue!
Love the blog, and I'll have to check back for you upcoming author interviews! : )
@Jennifer Thanks Jen!
@Alex I'm glad you enjoy it!
