Harlequin Escape

Harlequin Australia has just launched their own digital-first imprint, Harlequin Escape.
Harlequin Escape allows authors to submit their manuscripts online and possibly get them published as ebooks instead of using the traditional publishing model.
So if you write any form of romance check out their website Harlequin Escape as they are currently accepting submissions.

Sunday Shout Out #1

I have decided to participate in Sunday Shout Out, a weekly meme hosted by Carrie from In the Hammock.
What is Sunday Shout Out?
Here is a description of Sunday Shout Out from In the Hammock...

'...a place where I can give a special shout out to those publishers and authors who have sent me books over the week, as well as those bloggers who have hosted contests that I've won! I'll also be giving shout outs to any other cool books, blogs or bookish news that I've spotted during the week.

I know a lot of times people don't have time to read reviews, so this is a way for readers to stop by and see a lot of books and news at a glance, and that way the publishers and authors can get even more publicity for their books!

I would also LOVE to see what books YOU would like to give a shout out to! Did you receive and review books this week? Win any contests? Maybe you spotted a new indie book at your local bookstore that you wanted to raise awareness about.'

If you would like to join in, please go to Carrie's post at In the Hammock and link your Sunday Shout Out in the comments, and don't forget to link back to her post!


Here are the books I received this week:

A Rather Long Absence

I apologise for the long absence and lack of new posts. Things have been rather hectic and stressful over the last few months due to the recent loss of my boss's husband. I am now in the process of getting back into some sort of a routine and look forward to getting back on track with my blog.
Thank you for your patience.
