XoXo publishing features authors throughout the year and it is my turn.
My spotlight tour began on Sunday, May 26, 2013. Here is the link: http://xoxopublishing.blogspot.com/2013/05/annette-bower-is-in-spotlight-day-1.html. There is an excerpt that you will not have read unless you read Moving On, A Prairie Romance.

On Wednesday, May 29, 2013 another post went up: http://xoxopublishing.blogspot.com/2013/05/annette-bower-spotlight-day-2.html .

Today there is an interview. I kept my answers short and added pictures of my first creative writing certificate from the University of Regina, in 1983 and of my XoXo Top Seller Certificate. Both so very important to me.

On Friday, there will be new content again. http://xoxopublishing.blogspot.com/2013/05/annette-bower-in-spotlight-day-3.html

However, I am doing something just a little different this during these posts. I decided that I would take a page out of the movie Miracle on 34th Street. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miracle_on_34th_Street Santa Claus tells a mother that Macy’s doesn’t have the toy her son asks for so she should purchase it at Gimbels Department Store.
Moving On, A Prairie Romance may not be for everyone, therefore I’m giving those who comment a chance to win other authors.
Posting throughout all 7 days provides chances to win http://www.free-press-release.com/news-xoxo-publishing-debuts-their-print-division-with-the-paranormal-based-mystery-romance-out-of-the-past-1368800065.html This is a book by Denysé Bridger.
On Day 2, a Cynthia MacGregor http://www.amazon.com/Cynthia-MacGregor/e/B000APP3UM book of the winner’s choice will be the prize. Cynthia has over 100 non-fiction and children’s published books with XoXo.
On Day 3, I will do a random draw from the comments and the lucky winner will receive an e copy of Debra Jayne East’s Book: Radiance: Love after Death. http://www.amazon.com/Radiance-Love-after-Death-ebook/dp/B005KQ5E32

Tell me what you think. Is this a good idea?
