Jackie will be
awarding a $25 GC to a randomly drawn commenter from the three Pavilion Parties
for Wind River Refuge. 12/8/13. 1/15/14. & today at the conclusion of this
Party.
Post 1
His
keen eyes scan the snowcapped peaks below, as he spreads his wings to ride the
currents. It is crisp and clear a good day for hunting. He swooped a bit lower
to check out the ant like creatures swarming over his domain, but the great
bald eagle dismissed them as prey.
The
humans below were also hunting. They’d returned throughout the winter whenever
the howling winds and heavy snow subsided. Spring was slow to come in this part
of the world. He screeched a warning that another storm was approaching, but he
doubted the creatures below were intelligent enough to heed his warning.
What they searched for was buried higher up in the mountains. The great hunter knew they wouldn’t find their prize for many moons. The searchers below unearthed a snowshoe hare. He folded his wings, swooped down, and snagged a rabbit dinner. Soon the rivers would thaw and he could add fish to the diet of his new family.
The
men below watched an eagle cart of a rabbit and wondered if the bird knew where
the object of their hunt was located.
To
find out what the searchers are looking for in the subzero, life threatening,
weather read “Wind River Refuge.”
Release Date: March 1, 2014
A note from the Author:
It has been bitter cold in a large part of the U.S., including North East Ohio. So, this author has been hunkered down, and burning up the keyboard. Okay, here are a few updates: I finally
approved the printed proof copy of “Wind River Refuge” to be sent to me on
January 6th. I began
reading it, only to run for my red editing pen. Yep, after three separate
editors, two proofreaders, and three rounds of digital proofs, a few typos and
misused words were missed, not to mention extra spaces.
At this point, we are looking at the first of March for the paperback release, and when my formatter returns from her vacation we need to update the e-book to match.
Yesterday,
while hibernating, I found a new marketing tool to try. It is a preview page
with star ratings and questions on the preview from me. Help me evaluate this
tool by going to https://www.createspace.com/Preview/1141773
your answers are
private, only I see them.
Another
new change has occurred at the Author’s Den site http://www.authorsden.com/jackieanton
readers are able to purchase an autographed copy of any one of my books
directly from the author’s den bookstore from anywhere in the U.S.A. When
visiting my page, at the above link, click on the book of your choice. You will
go to the books information, including excerpts, reviews, and e-book purchase
links. Click on “Get Your Signed Copy Today” to receive your personalized,
signed book. Wind River Refuge will also be available in March, and like my
other books will have a special price at the Author’s den.

Oops!
I guess this Pavilion Party has been moved to next Sunday. See you all then. If you did stop by, and want to get in on the Super Bowl Party check out my A to Z Reviews Blog.
