You know one of my favorite things to do is sit next to a fire on the beach. It's actually been a while since we've had a fire on the beach. Given our decision to stay close to home this winter we won't be going to Pismo Beach as we normally would. We have been having fires in our tabletop unit on our deck overlooking the summit. It's not the beach but it's a very close second and actually really relaxing.

I've decided to do boxed sets for a couple more series. A boxed set allows you to buy books from the backlist at a discount. For example each book in the Tess and Tilly Series is $4.99 but the boxed set of three books is just $9.99. That's like getting a book free. Check out the links in the body of the newsletter for the boxed set for books 1 - 3 for both Whales and Tails and Tess and Tilly (Just click on the photo of the boxed set.) If you haven't started these series a boxed set would be an economical way to go.

There is a new mini mystery this month. Clues will be provided on January 6th, 13th, 20th, and 27th, so be sure to collect all the newsletters so you will have all the clues.

And as always, be sure to enter to win this weeks gift card giveaway. The entry form is provided toward the bottom of the newsletter. 

Remember Rafflecopters are only live until the end of the day on Thursday. The winner is selected on Friday.
