Diverse Reader~ 3 Year Blogiversary: Felice Stevens #Giveaway

Today is the last day of the 3 Year Blogiversary week! Closing it down is an amazing author and someone I consider to be a close friend. Felice Stevens, aka Fancy, crashed into my life and never left and I've loved every second. If you've read her work you know how good she is. If not, get reading.
So she's written a small post and is doing a great giveaway. You'll also get to see what's coming from her this year.

3 Year Blogiversary 

Congratulations to Meredith on her Blogiversary. Diverse Reader, and Meredith mean the world to me. Many of you know Meredith and I have met many times and I love her to pieces. There is no more real and loving person. She's beautiful inside and out and there's no one else I'd rather have in my corner. I consider it an honor to be her friend. Happy Blogiversary!!!

My plans for the upcoming year are never set in stone, except for releases.

On January 31, I have Reunited the second book in The Rescued Heart series coming out that's a sequel to Rescued. I do plan a third on this year.

In February I'll be re-releasing After the Fire, the second book in the Through Hell and Back series and plan to have Embrace the Fire ready for re-release in late March/ early April. Then I have One Call Away, my radio show MM romance coming after that.

Of course I get sidetracked and yesterday I started writing a Valentine's Day short for Gideon and Jonah from Learning to Love. IN this story you'll get Jonah's POV so it will be different and will hopefully tie up some loose ends with these two. The tentative title is The Way to His Heart.

And that's all I know for now!!

Happy blogiversary to Meredith and the gang! I am so excited to be celebrating with you!

I wish you many years of continued success. Mwah! <3

Diverse Reader~ 3 Year Blogiversary: Kate Aaron Guest Post #Giveaway

I'm loving this Blogiversary week party here on Diverse Reader and I hope you all are too! Today we have the amazing Kate Aaron. She's an author and a friend and her talent is outstanding! If you've read her work you're well aware of that. If she's new to you than you really need to go get yourself a book or 11 of hers. She's here to talk about a memory, tell you what's coming from her in 2017, and she has a giveaway for one lucky winner. Check it out!

Blogiversary!!

I have so many memories of this awesome blog. Cover reveals and thoughtful reviews, and of course my Free Men series being awarded Best of 2014  But my favourite post isn't one of mine, it's the interview you did with Ben Haverson from AJ Rose's Power Exchange books (aka your future husband!) 

2016 wasn't a good writing year for me, but 2017's going to be awesome. I've got Sub on Top, the sequel to Dom on the Side, coming out in late spring, plus Bottom's Up, the third Blowing It story told from Owen's POV (hopefully early summer). I'm also working on a whole new series, set in Manchester, UK. The first book, Strait Laced, will be out early in the year. Readers who want a sneak peak can follow the story on Wattpad. Check me out on Patreon

My books are available from Amazon, B&N, iTunes, Smashwords

Giveaway

As a special thank you to Diverse Reader fans, I'm offering reader's choice of one of my titles (excluding boxsets) to one winner in the giveaway.

Diverse Reader~ 3 Year Blogiversary ~ Luna David: Guest Post #Giveaway

It has been so awesome this week celebrating Diverse Reader's 3 Year Blogiversary! Today, we continue the party with the very funny, super delightful, and quite talented Luna David. This post made me laugh and I'm sure you will too. Stick around to the end for the giveaway!

THREE YEAR BLOGIVERSARY BLOG POST

Hello Everyone! Let me let you in on a little something… Hmm? Meredith has tasked me with writing a memory of her or of my experiences working with Diverse Reader… I gotta admit, she truly asked the WRONG person, because I seriously have an epically awful memory.

BUT! What does one do when they have such a horrible time remembering the simplest things in life—what she had for breakfast, if she took her medicine, where are her children, what her first conversation was like with Meredith at Diverse Reader? One goes back to the beginning… Where it all began, if you will.

As the tension was mounting and I was cursing my brain for its complete and utter reluctance to recollect even the most mundane of subjects, a very good friend said to me, “Go to your PM history and look at your first conversations with her…”

And so I did… 

What surprised me most was the fact that Meredith took my virginity, ya’ll. No lie, she truly did. I started talking to her about a year ago now and we got to know each other a bit. When I was FINALLY finished with my first book—those of you who know me know that I might truly be the slowest writer of all time—and was ready to ask some friends I’d made to review that bad boy, she was one of the first ones I approached. That conversation went a little bit like this:

Luna: OMG I don’t know what to do to promote my first book. I just put it on Amazon and that’s pretty much all I’ve got in my arsenal. Where do I go? What do I do? How do I get reviews? How do I promote my book? HELP ME, Meredith! You’re my only hope! But go easy, because I’m a virgin…

Meredith: Well I'm harmless and I'll make it painless for you. I will pop your promo cherry for you HAHA!!!

Luna: LMAO! Well... I don't mind if it’s a little painful... otherwise, what's the fun....

And so it began, ladies and gentleman… 

But oh wait, I’m not done because when I told this to my very good friend, the very same one I mentioned above, that had originally eased my panic with words of wisdom regarding PM conversation history, she said that SHE had her review cherry popped by Meredith too! *GASP* *Cue dramatic plot twist music*

Now, I gotta be honest.. At first I was all, “YAY! We both got devirginized by Meredith King!”

But then I was all, “Wait. We both got devirginized by Meredith King… Was I not special? Was I not good enough? Why did she have to look elsewhere? What is the meaning of life?”

And then I realized that she wouldn’t have much of a blog if she only devirginized one author and then called it good… So, though Meredith may “get around”, deflowering all of us author virgins and continuing to review soooo many wonderful LGBTQ+ books on her blog, she always treats all of her authors and publishers with kindness and respect, even when we don’t know what the hell we’re doing…

So thank you, Meredith King and Diverse Reader! Congrats on your THREE YEAR BLOGIVERSARY! *Happy Dance* *waves hands in the air* *Cue explosive fireworks display*
