Celebrate MAY Giveaway!

May has become an important month to me. In May 2003, I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. In May 2004, I was pronounced "in remission." In May 2005, we started the process to adopt our daughter. In May 2008, I was pronounced "cured." In May 2011, I sold the Defiance trilogy.

You can see why May is an important month for me! I am grateful for every May milestone. Yes, even the cancer. Everything, good or bad, has taught me something valuable and has turned into a blessing over time. I'm grateful, and I'd like to celebrate!

To celebrate, I decided to give things away!

What things am I giving away? No, not my Johnny Depp poster. Get your own. I'm giving away DEFIANCE things, of course!

Grand Prize: An annotated, signed ARC of DEFIANCE.

Second Place: A signed DEFIANCE bookmark, and the opportunity to have a secondary character in book 2 named after you or someone you love.

Third Place: Two people will each win a signed DEFIANCE bookmark.
