Greetings!

It's July and I am so excited! Why? Because my new book, WHERE THE MOUNTAIN MEETS THE MOON is now out! I really do think this is my best book ever (so far!) so I hope you give it a chance and read it yourself!

Did you miss the  the virtual launch party? No worries, there is still lots of fun happening...

Where the Mountain Meets the Moon fun continues
you can still win!

celebrateAs well as a new book, I have a new online store!

You can win a $25.00 gift certificate for merchandise at the gracelin.com store by celebrating my book.

All you have to do is:

1) TAKE a photo of yourself with my book. It can be at the bookstore, at a library, anywhere! Just a photo of the book with YOU in it.

2) POST that photo at the facebook fan page (on the wall).
(if you are not a facebook fan, you can e-mail me your photo at gracenotes@gracelin.com & I can post for you!)

3)Then, you are automatically entered into a drawing to win the $25.00 gift certificate!

I will do a drawing once a month until the end of September (July 31st, Aug.31st, Sept. 30), so you have 3 chances to win. But there's more! On October 1st, I will do a drawing from all the participants for the Grand Prize...

YOUR NAME OR LIKENESS IN ONE OF MY UPCOMING BOOKS!

That's right, every month until September 30th you have a chance to win a $25.00 gift certificate and then a chance to be in my next book. All you have to do is post a photo of yourself with Where the Mountain Meets the Moon! See:

That's easy, right? And so good-looking, as well! So join the contest and post your photos!
