Birthday giveaway, 15 winners possible
A fellow author and mutual friend of Marantha D. Jenelle and myself, Georgina Hannan, is having a birthday. In honor of this she is holding a giveaway with up to 15 winners! Enter and you could win one of these fabulous books shown below.
Teresa Garcia (or Teresa Amehana Garcia / Amehana Arashi) is a rural Northern California mountain woman. Art supplies are at premium in a house of artists. She has health, intermittent mobility, and nerve pain issues which she pushes through as well as possible, in order to complete her tasks. With a busy autistic son she does not always have enough time for her own projects, and her work projects often eclipse her own personal projects.
Teresa writes mainly fantasy. Her works include poetry, short stories, and novels. She also paints, narrates on ACX, illustrates, fiddles about with ASMR readings, Reiki Master, Priestess, and is open for commission. She writes challenges for the online browser based role play of Dragon Hearts (which don’t always get coded) and administrates for Dreaming Twilight in SL. She volunteers time as curator for on-line libraries overseeing live and pre-recorded programs. She also is one of the administrators for the Nisa/Dreaming Twilight role play group and helps develop the lore for their program. In addition she is the owner/operator of THG StarDragon Publishing and a co-owner of Dragon Hearts RPG.

Selkies' Skins Prequel information
The prequel story for the "Selkies' Skins" series will be available on Smashwords (and through other outlets as well) December 1st. This is not one that is currently available to read on the archive site.
In "Pearls of Sea and Stone: Book of Seals" we will join the half-selkie witch Kirsty Makay as she peruses an ancient manuscript that has been hidden in the Castle Carrick library for centuries. What will she learn by reading the book, and will any of it ultimately prepare her for when she is to begin her skinquest trials or for her priestess initiations?
For now this will only be available in e-copy.

Irony is now on Smashwords
The sci-fi/fantasy "Irony" by Marantha D. Jenelle is now available on Smashwords, which means that it is shipping out to various other ebook suppliers such as Kobo.
http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/373689
Hathim, leader of the Superna refuge, and his mate have a crisis on their hands. Told through the eyes of his mate find out how they save their races from a terrible poison designed specifically to kill the non-human.
It will be $0.99 there, and once I get it uploaded on Amazon for the Kindle it will match that price there as well.
Marantha still has several other works that I am making my way through, including her trilogy. However, like "Selkies' Skins" and "Dragon Shaman" are for me since university classes have started my classwork must take more of my time. Otherwise Marantha may come back and keep prodding me, just like she used to call me up to check on how I was doing with school and how close the degree was getting.

The results of The Dragons' Beads party
The release party for the anthology went very well, and we had quite a few people come through. It did go out to three whole hours worth of music and chat which spanned many topics. This of course covered dragons, the book, some of my books, Dragon Hearts and games, and books Grease has been working on.
It was great seeing so many people come together and from different groups. Grease Coakes/John Krauss was busy DJing some great tunes, Methos Anubis one of those that helps to run to club was here, Kino was our lovely hostess... Salaiek, the cover artist was out there dancing with me (my mate was out on the floor with us at one point, that delightful fox over in the corner beyond the purple flouncy dragon that I am)... plus many other people that came by.
Here's a few pictures from the party.

Best part of parties thrown in SL? Cleanup is generally really easy. Soon we'll find out who the two lucky winners of free copies of the book are.

The Dragons' Beads Release
Release day is upon us for volume one of the dragon poetry and short story anthology "The Dragons' Beads: A Treasury." Thank you to the contributors that made this possible. It was very exciting to see how many different views of 'dragon' sprang from the prompt.

Don't forget about the after release party. That can be accessed through Second Life (either the SL viewer or one of many third party viewers... I use Firestorm) at 6 PM SLT/Pacific Time. It was originally scheduled for 6 to 8, but Grease/John has enough music that if it looks like people want it and it gets cleared with the sim owner to extend another hour.
If you come, there are a couple of "dragon eggs" among the songs that I specifically asked to be played. The first one to IM me during the celebration event for each particular "egg" of the two will win 10 Lindens. If someone IMs me with both then they will earn 20 Lindens.
