If I could name one thing I love about the internet it would be the fact I can lurk and nobody knows it but me and the Lord. In my everyday life, I couldn't lurk if you paid me. I'm loud, I make too much noise when I'm trying to be quiet, and I don't know how to do things unseen. :) But, online I can. I read a lot of blogs and rarely ever comment. Yet, I wonder why only a very few comment here. lol Maybe, y'all just like lurking, too.
Well, today, y'all might want to forget about lurking, cause I'm having a contest. In honor of those men and women who fought and are still fighting for freedom, I'm giving away an autographed, paperback copy of my first book, "Wild Heart". Interested? Just comment here or on FaceBook. Tell me in your comment why you like the internet. Contest ends Sunday Nov. 13 at 11:59 PM. I'll randomly choose from the answers I get. The winner will be contacted either through FaceBook, or your email addy, if you give it to me.
Forget what "Wild Heart" is about? No problem. Here's a synopsis and a link to the books' trailer on YouTube.
Gage Colton, ex-gunman turned Christian is searching for the man who killed his father. After witnessing a gunfight in Tombstone, he feels God urging him to change his plans. If he obeys the Holy Spirit, it may cost him dearly; possibly even his life. Shewana Christy, a young Cheyenne woman, is bent on revenge, in the hope that it will finally bring peace, something she has not known in a long time. She has already avenged her mothers death and is looking for her father's murderer, when she is kidnapped at gunpoint and forced to hit the trail in the middle of the night. With a posse in hot pursuit behind them, unknown dangers lurking ahead, and constant friction between them, will Gage and Shewana find what they were looking for, or will they answer that still, small voice of God, leading them in another direction?
Hey, did y'all catch that? "Unknown dangers lurking ahead" Wow, I'm good. lol Didn't even mean for that to happen. :)

What do I like about the Internet? Wow, that is a huge question.
ReplyDeleteEntertainment! I can easily read blogs, check out library books, email friends, read movie reviews, check my daughter's grades at school, watch movies or tv programs, browse eBay, GOOGLE, Facebook.
Education. Many times I have searched for answers to questions. From health to homework assignments. When my children were babies, I taught them sign language. I learned it all from the internet. By the time my son was 3, he knew well over 150 signs.
Sorry, I didn't mean to ramble :-) I'll stop now.
Being an extrovert, I enjoy the Internet because it allows me to encounter so many people out there I would not otherwise ever meet. I find it fun to wish them a happy birthday, comment on their posted family photos at Facebook, and exchange writing tips with those like me who believe writers never stop learning how to improve their writing.
