NGC Picture A Novel Seduction So much to talk about and so little time!

First, of course, is the launch of A Novel Seduction. That's Tuesday, October 25, folks. There's still time to score your own signed book cover card. All you need to do is pre-order the book and email the receipt to me at gwyn@cready.com.

Second, is the great reviews! In a starred review, Publisher's Weekly called A Novel Seduction "a delightfully original and humorous contemporary romp with a metafictional twist" and added, "This yarn is an absolute crowd-pleaser." Romantic Times gave it four stars and called it "a sexy second-chance romance." Fresh Fiction called A Novel Seduction "a rollicking romance-writing romance." And my favorite fan review so far--and I paraphrase--is A Novel Seduction is "pee in-your-pants funny."

Third, is my live Twitter chat on Wednesday, October 19, from noon to 1:00 pm EST-- @GwynCready on @PocketAfterDark.

Fourth, is my live, in-person Launch Party. If you're in Pittsburgh, please do stop by Eljay's Books, 3233 West Liberty Avenue in Dormont, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm on Tuesday, October 25 to celebrate with me. Other places I'm appearing are here.

Fifth, is my online Blaunch Party. If you're not in Pittsburgh (or even if you are), I'll be blogging, answering questions, running contests, posting pictures and much more on Wednesday, October 26, from 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm EST at cready.com. You can get a free virtual signed bookplate and have a whole lotta fun.

Sixth, be on the lookout for an email about my Launch Contest. That will come out on October 26, the day after launch, and the contest will only run for ten days. I hope you like really nice purses...

Seventh, I'm running two quick contests between now and launch. If you're on Facebook, go to "Gwyn Cready, Romance Novelist", like one of my posts and then share it (by clicking the word "Share" underneath it). That's one contest, and a randomly drawn winner will receive a signed copy of A Novel Seduction. The other is for you Tweeters out there. Go to @GwynCready and retweet one of my tweets. That's the second contest, and a randomly-selected winner will receive a signed copy of A Novel Seduction. Both contests start now and end on Friday, October 21 at 10 pm EST. You can enter both.

Eighth, here's a link to the first chapter of A Novel Seduction. Enjoy!
