FAVE LINKEY-POO RIGHT THIS SECOND: Okay, one last Twilight-related link, this time a video showcasing what would happen if Buffy got her hands on Edward. Now that’s what I call entertainment with teeth.

Beginning tomorrow, Thursday, July 2, I’m going to feature six authors on my blog for six weeks leading up to the release of DONUT DAYS on August 6. *snorts at unintentional 666 nod* Check out the lineup so far, listed below.

Oh, and there are prizes! Leave a comment on the blog to be eligible to win a $10 gift card from Dunkin’ Donuts. There’s a total of $60 in donuts up for grabs, people! Also, I’ll be giving away a hard-cover copy of DONUT DAYS on August 6 to one lucky larawrites.com visitor.

So here’s the author Lineup (so far):

• The lovely and talented Ellen Baker, author of KEEPING THE HOUSE, will lead the charge on July 2 talking about how the road to any successful novel is paved with re-writing. Because it’s ALL about the re-writing, let me tell you. Or, better yet, let Ellen tell you!

• Rhonda Stapleton, author of STUPID CUPID, which launches in December 2009, is up next. Her witty, fabulous post will have you laughing, I guarantee. Girlfriend is hi-larious.

• Then, 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.

• Following that 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 ne lucky commenter to Jon’s post will win a free copy of EXCLUSIVELY CHLOE!

And keep checking the site every Thursday until August 6 for more authors and more guest posts. And prizes! Don’t forget the prizes!
