Some awesome covers this past week.
I have a giveaway going on right now.
And posted for Jamie's Truth blogfest today!
I'm busy planning things but I haven't submitted anything yet this year. Lots of great covers.
I'll never get caught up! TBR list in the hundreds. LOL
Love seeing all of those covers together. How awesome :)
Nice covers.
Great covers! Thanks for showing mine again. :)
Thanks for all the awesome info and links too, I always enjoy reading through these! :)
Yeah! That's a parade of awesome covers. Can't wait to get my hands on all of them. I was wondering about the Ubuntu bloghop (saw the sign up on one sidebar) so thank you for giving me the source!
Have an awesome weekend!
Hey Shannon,
A nice array of covers. Put my covers to shame. Never mind.
I'd like to share I think you are well awesome, Shannon. And can you handle the truth that blog hops make me want to sob uncontrollably in a darkened room.
Take care, I'm going now.
Gary :)
I love those covers.
As for submitting, I don't have anything ready except for a story I was invited to submit elsewhere.

Alex, nice! (And I'm so glad you responded with stuff to pass along. I encourage that!)
Susan, since I never seem to get around to submitting (okay, a handful of things last January), I have a weekend planned in two weeks where I will take the short stories I've been turning into my critique group, do the final edits, and submit, submit, submit.
Yolanda, oy, the TBR list! Never ending.
Mary, it was neat scanning back and looking through each. I almost did all of them from this past year, but stopped myself.
Jan, aren't they?
Kimberly, I was glad to! Hopefully a few extra people saw them.
Crystal, oh good, glad it helped you find it!
Gary, well, you know, clean 'em and maybe they'll hold up. Will you still think I'm awesome even though I'm not doing the A-to-Z anymore, or will that make me more awesome?
Misha, cool about being invited to submit a story. Congrats!
