10 Year Anniversary, Celebration Day 1 ~ VLOGGING

Thanks for joining me to celebrate 10 years of Relz Reviewz!

You, my readers, have made it possible to be doing something I’ve been passionate about for years – connecting readers with authors who write stories to inspire, challenge, entertain, wrestle with, and love. Over this week I’ll be vlogging (who would have thought?!), sharing memories of the last 10 years, meeting authors, and giving away some INCREDIBLE book bundles that you are going to want a chance to win. I hope you will be patient with this interruption to my usual schedule and enjoy something a little bit different …

Nor Forsake by Julie Presley

Synopsis:~

Libby Abbott leads a seemingly charmed life: she works from a beautiful home in a rich neighborhood as an aspiring author and has a handsome and successful husband who supports her dreams.

Bookish Question of the Week

So, friends, there is a teensy weensy event coming up at the blog next week, commencing Sunday 25th September. A little celebration of 10 years of blogging for yours truly. I’m super excited as I have some AMAZING giveaways planned thanks to the wonderful publishers and stellar authors I work with, along with some great interviews and a bit of reminiscing.

I’m pondering whether I do something I’ve never done before and that is a vlog or two! What say you? Think you will be able to understand my accent? Anything in particular you would like me to talk about?…

Melissa Jagears: The Inside Scoop! and a giveaway

I grew up in…Branson, MO. People are often surprised people grow up in Branson instead of just vacation there. It’s great place for a teenager because there are so many flexible seasonal jobs. I didn’t have any really fun ones like running go-karts, but I worked at several stores in the mall and I met my husband as a banquet server at Chateau on the Lake. And then when you’re a singer in your church and/or school, you get some cool opportunities. I think my favorite was singing in the backup choir for Sandi Patty.

I was inspired to …

Coming soon from Tyndale House

Tyndale House take a lot of care when it comes to their cover art, with a focus on thematic covers for their series and quality design.

Joel Rosenbeg’s covers never leave you in any doubt about the genre or content of his novels and are clearly aimed at his target audience. Similarly, DiAnn Mills and Candace Calvert’s covers pull romance readers in with their prominent couples and genre specific clues. While the covers themselves are not out of the box for the romance genre, they are both very eye-catching and including both pivotal characters on covers always appeals to me.…
