A Sci-Fi White Christmas & New Year's Giveaway

12/20/2015

Each December, I take time to reflect upon the past year, celebrate key milestones, identify those yearly favorites, and set goals for the year to come. 

  • Favorite Movie: STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS (as if you had to ask) 
  • Favorite Book: READY PLAYER ONE by Ernie Cline 
  • Favorite Milestone: publishing my first SF novel, UNBREAKABLE.  

As I sat in my living room reminiscence, a cup of hot caf in hand and Christmas music echoing through the halls, inspiration struck. It was the lyrics to a song. But not just any song. It was White Christmas...
A Sci-Fi White Christmas. As I wrote it, more inspiration struck. It's time for a giveaway. It's time to plan for 2016 reading. Hey, why don't I help those who share my affinity for geek culture get their 2016 "read" on? 

So, enjoy the tune. Check out the cool stuff I'm giving away (see pics and rules for entering below). Leave a comment for a chance to win. And please tell your friends. 

Good luck, Maker's Speed, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
