Figure 1: Add your link

How to Sign Up for the Halloween Countdown that runs from Oct 1 - 26th, the more authors per day the better so overlap days as often as possible. At the bottom of this post you'll see the Add your link button (shown next to this text in Figure 1)


Once you Click on this button a box will open asking for your information including: 

- The Name you'd like everyone to see (Author Name, Facebook Page Name, Group Name, etc) include your day or days next to your name. Ex. Ichabod Crane - Oct 1 or Ichabod Crane - Oct 1-5 & Oct 15-20 & Oct 24-26. Each Link you add has only 1 URL so be sure the dates go with the Link you're going to be using on that day or days. 

- Next, copy and Paste the URL that you will be directing people to come to. This will be embedded in the photo you use as your thumbnail (you may notice the thumbnail photos of others). Only 1 URL per Link so if you have more URL's you'd like to use add them! The More the merrier! Just be sure to include your dates and double check that the link works and doesn't require users to sign up to enter or request to be added to participate (That's why Open Group Facebook pages) For example: 1 link is your Website with a day or days and another link could be your Blog page, and another link could be your Facebook Fan page. So that would be 3 links to add to the Blog Hop. 

- Finally, include your email address. No One but us will see these, this is only so we can contact you for additional information or problems when we need to.

Authors really need Badges to make it easier to share their information on other pages. If you need a badge or the coding and directions contact Barb. 

For Facebook Pages or Groups please Use the Halloween Photo Above and Include in a post this information since you can't use the Badge:

Copy and Paste this information into a post and keep it available towards the top of your page or group

Piggybacking by participating in comments or posts for solicitation of your product or work on the Event without actually being a part of the Event including the Blog Hop will not be allowed. We want everyone to participate and have fun, but we ask that you respect the rights of all involved.

Okay, That's It! Long I know but we wanted to make sure it was understood. Most of us this is new and if you've worked with us before you know we go out of our way to make it as easy as possible. Thank you so much for participating and Have Fun.

Continuing the Hell Yeah! Series with Book 4


Kane Saucier has chosen to walk away from a family fortune to wear a badge. As Sheriff of Kerrville County, he lives near his brother Zane and his friends, the McCoys of Tebow Ranch. His life is good, but something is missing. The Sheriff is lonely until love walks through the door of his office one day in the form of Lilibet Ladner. She’s not had an easy life, but from the moment they meet, the sparks fly. While everything is perfect in the bedroom, there is trouble in paradise – intrigue, danger and mystery turn their world upside down. Kane’s faith never wavers; his Little-bit is worth fighting for. And even when her darkest hour comes, Lilibet refuses to give up on her dreams or her Brown Eyed Handsome Man.
