Six writers, six weeks, until August sixth

[larazielin]

There are only a few weeks left until DONUT DAYS hits bookshelves, and to help aid the countdown I started a "six writers for six weeks until August sixth" series on my blog. Today, the lovely and talented Sarah Quigley, author of TMI, stops by to talk about redefining the exotic. And by redefining we mean Minnesota.

Yes, that Minnesota.

Leave a comment for a chance to win a $10 Dunkin' Donuts gift card, and stay tuned in the next few weeks for more authors and more prizes! Here's the lineup:

• July 16, Peter Jurich, author of the memior TYPING WITH ONE HAND, will talk about the process of self-publishing. With authors like Paul Young (THE SHACK) finding big success with their self-published books, Peter will give us insights on the pros and cons of making your book happen without a publishing house behind you. Comment for a chance to win a $10 Dunkin' Donuts gift card!

• Following that, on July 23, will be Jon Yang, the charismatic author of EXCLUSIVELY CHLOE. Jon is a dude. He’s cool. He plays basketball. He likes Star Trek. And he created the most girlie character I’ve read in a long time. So how’d he do it? And why? Well, Jon will tell you in his post about finding and following your true writing voice. And one lucky commenter to Jon’s post will win a free copy of EXCLUSIVELY CHLOE! And a $10 Dunkin' Donuts gift card!

• Then, you'll never guess who's next. Here’s a hint: her name starts with Melissa and ends with Schorr. That’s right, one of my fave authors evah, who penned the awesome book GOY CRAZY, will be part of the blog spotlight! Yay! And you guessed it, another $10 Dunkin' Donuts card is up for grabs.

• Last but not least is Rhonda Stapleton, author of STUPID CUPID, which launches in December 2009. Her witty, fabulous post will have you laughing, I guarantee. Girlfriend is hi-larious. Another $10 Dunkin' Donuts card giveaway.

Hope to see you over at larawrites.com! :)
