Happy Valentine's Day and a Hearty Woot!

Happy Valentine’s Day!

It’s a lucky day for my hubby. I woke up to some good news, so even if he forgets to get me a Valentine, he’s good.

First off, GIRL GONE NOVA won a Reviewer’s Choice Award here: http://tinyurl.com/ReviewerChoice

OUT OF TIME is up for Best Book of 2010 here:

http://tinyurl.com/LASRBestBook (if you feel inclined hop over and give me a vote so I won't look too lame!)

If you like FREE stuff, I’ve got five free shorts at All Romance eBooks. http://www.allromanceebooks.com

And print editions of my LONESOME LAWMEN have released on Amazon and B&N! The best price is, of course, the digital bundle THE LONESOME LAWMEN TRILOGY and if you buy, be sure to pop over to www.lldreamspell.com and enter the contest to win a great prize bundle, including a Kindle! And speaking of Lonesome Lawmen, I’m having a release party here:

www.CyberLaunchParty.blogspot.com with more prizes on the line! (2/14 only!)

I see my lonesome guys released on Fictionwise!

And I launched another contest at AuthorIsland: http://tinyurl.com/AI-PBJ-contest

Here’s hoping your Valentine’s is wonderful!

Perilously,

Pauline

Blogging Rules

The SFR Brigade "Golden Rules" for posting:

1. Please allow at least 3-4 hours since the last post to give everyone a little time at the top of the blog. (Time sensitive posts or information that must reach members immediately are the exception. Please use your discretion.)

2. No "hit-and-run" posts, please. Promotional posts by any member who is not otherwise active in the community will be deleted without notice. Repeats may result in loss of blog author privileges. The community blog is intended to share information between members and not to be used solely as a self-promotion bulletin board.

FAQ

Can anyone join SFR Brigade?

Anyone who writes, publishes, reads, is a fan of or is involved with Science Fiction Romance in literature is welcome to join. The site can only accomodate up to 100 authors, so it would be counter-productive to open it to a wider membership (such as those who are primarily interested in SF/R movies or television instead of literature) due to these limitations. (Which is not to say we don't banter about film culture SF/R on a regular basis, which will soon be evident.)

If this is SFR Brigade, why is the address http://www.sfrcontests.blogspot.com?

This is actually the second incarnation of the SFR Brigade. The original (which still owns the site name) was a private site where a few SFR writers privately discussed the subgenre and plotted to take over the universe. From zero hour, the plan was to expand the SFR Brigade to other writers, but when the time came, it seemed the best way to accomplish that was to construct a brand new site instead of trying to rebuild and clean out the cobwebs of the rusty one. And here we are, all bright and shiny. Hello!

What's the point of SFR Brigade?

*Yoda laugh* Epic plans, we have. Yes. Very epic. Patience, Padawan, and our plans will be revealed. First you must seek out our Welcome Message on the planet Degobah so you may begin your training.

What can SFR Brigade do for me?

Ask not what SFR Brigade can do for you... :) I think Five Reasons Why You Should Join will address that nicely.

OK, I think I've been drafted. Where do I report?

Since some of our requests to join the Brigade have been spirited away by evil Reavers (and we had to form an emergency task force to wrest them back from the crazed space cannibals) we've gone to an "automated" enlistment system.

Please go to the SFR Brigade Facebook Group Page and request to join. Then open the Files (link at the top of the FB page) and look for the doc that says "Add Me to the Brigade Roster."

There, you'll type in your name as you want it to appear and the web site or blog you'd like linked to your name. We'll add you asap.

That's it! You're in!

What's that? You don't have a Facebook account? Not to worry. Just leave a comment here with your name as you'd like it to appear and the web site/blog you'd like your name linked to and we'll beam you up next sweep.
