Romancing the Hop Winners


I just wanted to thank EVERYONE for participating in the RomHop.  The winners from my blog are listed below.

 

I would have loved to respond to each post individually, but since I don’t have time this week to do so . . . I’ll share what I feel Romance is here:

 

To me, romance is more than what meets the eye . . . romance is what meets the heart.  What you see with the eyes can deceive you, but the heart . . . it never lies, even when we try to lie to ourselves.

 

Winners

 

$10 Amazon gift card – Catrina Barton

eBook ARC of Lullaby – Tobi H. Helton

The JUICY Award – Anonymous (for the Song of Solomon post) Whoever you are . . . email me so we can discuss your prize. write2breathe@yahoo.com

What IS romance?


 
Today I’m celebrating the idea of Romance with a little Giveaway!

I'm personally awarding one prize not listed to the JUICIEST (not X-rated please...I don't have the disclaimer on my blog...lol) comment.
 
(**$10 Amazon Gift Card and eBook ARC of my upcoming novel, Book of Dreams: Lullaby)

There's also a Kindle Fire, Nook & other great swag available for the Grand Prize drawing from all the entries on the tour.

So . . . What is romance?  Can you answer that with a few sentences?  Really?

As writers we delve into this mysterious martyr every time Character A catches a glimpse of Character B across a crowded room, or graveyard, or runs smack into them turning a corner . . . either way, you get my point.  We dig our claws in and hang on for the ride when it begins.

I could go on and on about what I happen to think romance it.  I could spout off about candlelit dinners (which are a bit cliché at this point, if you ask me), roses (at least find out her favorite flowers . . . don’t just half-heart it with the old standby) or love poems.  Ok, actually . . . love poems are still a really great idea if done right.  Just, for the love of all that is holy, don’t start it off with “Roses are red, violets are blue . . .”  If you do, you don’t really deserve to get the girl/guy.  Seriously.

 
With that said . . . let the contest begin.

Here’s how the contest works.  Go through the list below & do those things. Yeah . . . I know.  Simple.  I don’t like to complicate things.  You can come back every day during the giveaway and enter AGAIN.

(Side Note:  Simply clicking on the +10 or whichever to get points for joining/liking/tweeting DOESN'T sign you up for the site or automatically perform that action for you.  You have to actually join in the right margin/like the FB page or Tweet. It won't count your points for the raffle otherwise.  Please make sure you do this so you get your "tickets" submitted.)

And remember to visit the other sites on the Romancing the Hop Blog Tour today...many are also giving away great prizes. the list is below.

 



**A few notes about the prizes.  I will need info for the winners in order to send the Amazon gift card and the ARC for Lullaby will be emailed once it is completed and available, likely 3-4 weeks prior to the scheduled release date . . . fingers crossed will be sooner rather than later.
