Weekly Announcements - 6 Sept 08

Hello! I'm running a tad behind this week, so here goes our announcements:

Carrie Lofty's new website is up and running, a labor of love that she put together herself. Props to her husband for kid wrangling over the Labor Day weekend. To celebrate, she's holding a September contest. Register for her Yahoo! Group (aka, the newsletter) and you'll be entered in a drawing for a $25 B&N or Amazon gift certificate.

Also, Carrie's short story "Sundial" received a 5 Angels review from Fallen Angels. "'Sundial' is a wonderful exploration into the emotional effects of time travel [and] an extremely spicy historical, bordering on erotic, yet the passion fits perfectly with this emotional story."
