Willa’s Song Giveaway

Willa’s Song Giveaway

J a n u a r y   2  –  J a n u a r y   1 6

It’s release day for A Song Unheard! And we all know what that means around here. Time for a giveaway!

I had fun pondering what gifts to offer with this one, and I hope you guys enjoy what I found! So without further ado, allow me to present Willa’s Song Giveaway, including:

  • A signed copy of A Song Unheard, for obvious reasons 😉
  • A paperback copy of Agatha Christie’s first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, featuring her detective who is a Belgian refugee–one of the only lasting reminders that England had once been filled with them.
  • Magnetic book marks with music notes and clefs, for marking your pages in those books
  • A violin puzzle box, with a small opening for your treasures (be they a cypher key or, you know, something more ordinary like…
  • A sterling silver treble clef necklace, for you or another music lover in your life
  • A music-themed journal so can write down all your symphonic thoughts (pages have a faint treble clef as well as standard lines)
  • A music-themed ceramic travel mug

One grand prize winner with a U.S. address will receive all those prizes! But wait (ahem), there’s more! 😉

For one Second Place winner (open to international residents as well!), I’m also giving away a $25 gift card to iTunes or Amazon, so you can stock up on the music of your choice! (Okay, so there’s no way to designate them for music, but you know. For the purposes of this giveaway, that’s what I’m going to say you should spend it on. Though if you’d rather buy books, who am I to complain? LOL)

Have you seen the book trailer yet?

You can watch this beautiful (1 minute long) glimpse into the story, narrated by my English friend Elizabeth and featuring the original composition “Willa’s Song” written by Jessica Brand and performed on the violin by Taylor Bennett right here! (It’ll get you an extra entry into the giveaway too!)

Book Club Chat via Skype!

Book Club Chat via Skype!

Book clubs = fun. At least I think so. 😉 So I’m being a bit experimental with my Facebook Live program and seeing how it goes to run an online book club discussion there as a video! Now, there’s a bit of lag between writing of comments and appearance of comments in my feed, so I’m thinking the best way to have a good conversation is to have a few people actual TALKING about the book. How? Skype! Through the magic of all that technology stuff, we’ll be having a panel of talkers right there in the video feed with me.

We’ll be going through the discussion questions in the back of the book…and following any rabbit trails we might get distracted by. 😉 Interested in joining me via Skype? If you’ve read Giver of Wonders (or can do so in the next week) and want to be part of the fun, let me know!

Requirements:
1. You’ve read the book
2. You have Skype
3. You’ll be available between 6-8 p.m. next Monday, 4 December

If that’s you, then let me know! You can either comment here (with contact info please) or shoot me an email at roseannamwhite@gmail.com and I’ll be in touch. (If by chance I get more volunteers than we can handle, I’ll choose by a combination of who contacted me first and what will build a well-rounded group.)

If this goes well, I’ll be doing it for ALL my book releases and others upon request! So you could have a chance to join me for other books even if you can’t on this one!

Even if you can’t join me through Skype, I hope you can join me for the discussion in the comment section of the video!

Thanksgiving Books and Blessings!

Thanksgiving Books and Blessings!

I intended to have a thoughtful post today, but with two deadlines within five days, let’s just say time for other things has gotten away from me, LOL. But I did want to pop on here long enough to invite you to come chat with me today at a Facebook party!

I’m part of the Thanksgiving Books and Blessings event, which can be found here on Facebook from 10-4 Central Time. My slot is 12-12:30 Eastern/11-11:30 Central.

There will be games, giveaways, and lots of fun ~ a way for us authors to thank you, the reader, for all your support and enthusiasm throughout the year. Hope you can make it!

Scavenger Hunt Begins Tomorrow!

Scavenger Hunt Begins Tomorrow!

Just a quick announcement to let you know that tomorrow at noon mountain time, another Christian Fiction Scavenger Hunt will be coming! The post will appear on everyone’s blogs tonight as we check for bugs, but it starts tomorrow. You’ll have all weekend to finish–and so much awesome content and amazing prizes! Mark your calendars!!!

News!

News!

I announced this Monday via Facebook Live, but in case you didn’t see it there, I’ll share here too! Lots of exciting news in my world. =)

I’ve signed two new contracts that will be keeping me quite busy. First of all, another series with Bethany House! This one is called The Codebreakers and is about England’s cryptanalysts of World War I, referred to as “Room 40.” For fans of my Culper Ring Series, this will have some similar elements to the spying and codes we all loved there, but combine it with the world of my English-set books. In fact, you’ll be getting a sneak peek into The Codebreakers’ world in A Song Unheard and An Hour Unspent! Needless to say, I’m super excited to get to work on this one! Room 40 achieved some amazing things during the war, and I can’t wait to incorporate them into my novels. =)

But that’s not all I’ll be writing! I also signed on with Guideposts to work on one of their continuity series. These are available to Guideposts subscribers only, but if you get the magazine, you’ve no doubt seen their offers for their books. I’ll be joining with 7 other authors on a series called The Secrets of Wayfarers Inn, set in modern-day Marietta, Ohio as three friends open a B&B in a historic inn and discover mysteries connected to its being a stop on the Underground Railroad. History loving me is really looking forward to combining secrets from the past with a tale set here-and-now. =)

And my Facebook Live Season Two will be beginning on Monday October 16! Big thanks to everyone who filled out the survey asking what you’d like to see in Season Two–based on your recommendations, we’ll be starting out with some deeper diving into history. The Culper Ring will kick us off, since everyone responded so well to it during my Book Chats.

Hope to see you on Facebook next Monday at 7 p.m. EST!
