The Way to Your Heart Bloghop, Giveaway!

4/1/2013

    LT3 is turning four years old. In celebration I, and many of my fellow authors, are blogging about the things we love and are also hosting giveaways!

    If you want to visit some of the other authors who are also participating, follow this link:
                                         http://www.lessthanthreepress.com/blog/?p=17

The Giveaway is closed. Congratulations Kayla!

I am holding an Anthology Giveaway. The winner will get their choice of one of my back list anthologies in their preferred electronic format. You can see what they are HERE. Your choices include:

Cleanly Wrong from LT3's Bestiary Anthology
The Jack O'Lantern's Grin from LT3's Halloween Rentboys Anthology
Hadash Aviv from LT3's Kiss Me At Midnight Anthology

Of those three, my favorite is Hadash Aviv. I think it has a depth and mystery to it that the other stories lack, but it has a difficult subject matter so be warned. My readers favor Cleanly Wrong because of how sweet and fairytale-like it is. I admit that The Jack O' Lantern's Grin lacks the finesse of the other two, but it is still a fun and enjoyable read!

To enter my Anthology Giveaway:

Comment on this post. Tell me about something you love. If you're an author participating in the bloghop, feel free to leave a link to your celebratory blog posting.
Include a valid email address in your comment so I can contact the winner. The email box does not send me your contact info! If you do not leave a way for me to contact you, your entry will be considered invalid.
If you already own all three, or if you really don't want to win an anthology, never fear! Just tell me you'd prefer an electronic copy of one of the books from my Dragon's Hoard Series and I'll accommodate you.

The winner will be chosen on 4/14/13 via Random.org and will have 48 hours to respond to my congratulatory email before a new winner is chosen.

Let's all wish Less Than Three Press the happiest of birthdays!

First, lovely part 1 post...I completely agree. I am a reader/reviewer, but I've had the chance to talk with the lovely ladies of LT3 and beyond professionalism they are just wonderful people!

Okay...so my favorite something...well, since we're on the subject of LT3. I have a huge love for fantasy. Now I know that they are not exclusively fantasy pubs and I read lots of their books that are NOT fantasy, but my go to publisher for fantasy is LT3.

What I love about the fantasy genre is getting lost in different worlds. I love the magic, the worlds, the characters, the imagination and creativity. I'm in awe at the minds of fantasy writers each time I step into their world. I love it!

I completely agree with you about the fantasy genre. I enjoy reading, and writing, about other worlds where magic and dragons reign supreme. There's something so gripping about weaving together new places and cultures within the fantasy genre that I completely love.

Thanks for entering!

And dragons are my favorite! Goes to show what initially attracted me to your Dragon's Hoard series. :D

yes, yes I agree with everything you said about working with LT3, they are amazing and so professional.

My favorite thing in the world next to writing is history I have blogged about it here for the hop: http://thisjourneywithoutamap.blogspot.com/2013/04/way-to-your-heart-bloghop.html

I actually already have all three books you list in the give away. Since I am something of a fan of your :~) but I am not caught up on your Dragon's Hoard Series quite yet.

I saw your history blog and I thought it was very interesting. I was a history minor in undergrad, so I really enjoyed everything you had to say.

I'll remember that you're looking at my Dragon's Hoard Series should your name come up in the randomizer. Good luck and thanks for stopping by!

I love to write, of course, but also to read. Reading is always so relaxing. No matter what, reading a good book always brighten my mood. ^_^

There's nothing wrong with curling up with a good book! I'm partial to paperback myself, because they're so much easier to curl around than a hard piece of electronics, but any good story in any format still makes me smile.

Thanks for stopping by.

I am a fan of your Cleanly Wrong story, mostly because of the idea of logic versus rules in the organization business. I am fascinated, mostly because I cannot organize my thoughts, much less my house. I own all of your books, except Hadash Aviv. If I do not win in your give away, I will buy it towards the end of April (vacation until 4/15). Am anxiously awaiting the next installment in the Dragon's Hoard. An congratulations to Less Than 3 Press on four years in this crazy business. As a reader, I appreciate the variety of publishers. Thanks for the giveaway.

4/2/2013 08:25:29 am

Cleanly Wrong was so much fun to write because I could poke fun at established rules that I don't follow in my own life. There is a line in the story about Rung sleeping with the soft blanket against his skin instead of the top sheet that comes from my own life. I drive my mom crazy because I'm all happy and snuggled while the top sheet has mysteriously vanished.

I'm so glad to hear that you enjoy my books. People like you who enjoy what I am able to put onto paper are the reason I'm writing. Thank you so much for your support and good luck!

I ... love ... swords ... :D

And my partner, of course. XD

I like swords, but clearly not as much as you do! I once took a fencing class in high school, which only taught me how terribly uncoordinated I am.

Did you want to enter the giveaway, or were you just saying hello? If you do want to enter, please leave me your email address. Either way, thanks for stopping by!

Secondhand books. I love going to a bookstore selling pre-loved books because it's fun searching through the piles and finding something I like! I almost completed my Stephen King collection that way.

When I lived in Boston I used to spend entire afternoons walking around the secondhand bookstores. I found so many great things, but usually I just enjoyed the atmosphere. Now that I'm back home, where the only bookstore is a B&N, I content myself with my own large library.

You're entered into the giveaway!

I love spending time with my siblings. We're all older now so seeing each other isn't easy anymore. But I love those moments when we all gather, cook a meal together, and spend time talking or watching something together.

4/3/2013 02:52:03 am

I can't relate to that at all! I'm the older sibling and my two younger sisters are still spoiled brats (I am too). They come home from college and drive me bonkers! I guess when we're all older and have moved to more mature places in our lives that might change, but for right now I enjoy them at a distance.

Thanks for entering!

I love cities, and I love dragons--but not together! I'd love to read your Dragon's Hoard series. Thank you!

Thanks for stopping by! I'll remember you want to play with dragons. Luckily, none of my dragons live in a big city, so you should enjoy them.

I have to agree with Cecile about second hand book shops but I have to tell myself that I have a limit before I go in. They are too tempting otherwise. (lexi.sack11@gmail.com).

4/4/2013 07:12:05 am

Limits are important. Usually I try to bring someone less enthused with me so they can pull me away when they start getting impatient. It's very effective.

I've just read Hadash Aviv and LOVED it, but I would love a chance to read Cleanly Wrong!

I love... I love that writing with LTT feels like family. I write for another publisher as well, and as friendly as they are, I feel like the girls at LTT have my back. I'm pretty sure if I was being mugged on a street corner, they'd come rushing to my rescue (dear muggers out there, I do NOT want to put this to a test, I was just making a point). It's really great to have people you can share your successes with who get that I don't just write gay porn. <3

You have no idea how happy I am to know you really liked Hadash Aviv. That is the short story I'm most proud of, but it's also the one the fewest people are reading. Hearing that someone else loves Hadash Aviv as much as I do is wonderful! Thank you so much for your support.

I'll remember you're interested in Cleanly Wrong!

I love secondhand bookstores (and record stores!) too...heading to a couple this morning (hoping to sell, but will probably buy, too--uh, oh)!

I don't see how you can step into a bookstore and not buy. It's practically impossible!

I love watching food related shows on the Food Channel. I wish that I could be eating most of what I see on it.

I get some of my best ideas from watching cooking shows! The first time I had to get the goop out of an avocado I remembered watching them do the same thing on Iron Chef America. I grabbed a spoon and had that green goo in the bowl in record time! I don't know what I'd do without my cooking shows!

Thanks for stopping by!

Something I haven't talked about yet is that I love numbers. People are often said to be either/or when it comes to words and numbers, but I love both. In school, I loved doing math, and I loved writing essays and papers. As an adult, I don't get too much math in besides the basics, so my little love affair stays hidden, waiting to come back into the light.

Thanks for the chance to win!

If it weren't for my fingers and toes, math would be beyond me entirely. I'm a liberal arts student, not a math/science one. Kudos to you for loving numbers and thanks for stopping by!
