Oooh!
๐ SIGNED STRUNG TRILOGY GIVEAWAY ๐
[Update by Sarah, wife and publisher]
One thing I really miss is packing and shipping signed books to readers around the world.
Before the tariff changes in the US, we used to send signed copies internationally all the time, and honestly, it was a lot of fun. There was something really special about knowing a package was traveling from our little post office in Spain to a reader somewhere else in the world.
Unfortunately, international shipping became much more complicated and expensive, so we had to stop offering signed books worldwide.
BUTโฆ
Iโll soon be sending another shipment to our overseas colleague, which means I can sneak a signed book set into the box and have it forwarded to a lucky reader ๐.
So thatโs exactly what weโre doing. A giveaway!
๐ One winner will receive:
โ Paperback editions of all 3 *Strung* books
โ Signed by Per inside the books
And yes โ readers from ALL countries are welcome to enter. This way, weโre able to ship to you no matter where you live.
If you already own The Strung Trilogy, that's okay. I also have signed copies of Roseโs Story, Moody, and 25 Days, so the winner can choose those instead ๐.
To enter:
๐ Comment below and tell us why youโd love to win.
Iโll pick a winner in one week.
Good luck!

EIGHT MILES OF MYSTERY. ONE NIGHT OF TERROR
Residents trapped in a remote neighborhood confront the unimaginable in this horror novel from award-winning author Debra Castaneda.
The salt marsh at Devil's Landing is home to a terrifying urban legend.
Adam Gray knows the old stories about the Slough Devil, the missing children, and the mutilated animals. But the naturalist and wilderness survival expert doesn't believe in monsters. Not even when a tourist on his boat sees a strange creature in the tidal channel and captures it on video.
When Adam moves into a controversial housing development next to the marsh, shocking new evidence emerges, and it's not long before he's confronted with a series of horrifying and unexplained events.
It takes Christina, his feisty new neighbor, to get him to believe something lurks in the slough. Something disturbed by the new community.
When a massive storm maroons the residents, Adam and Christina find themselves trapped and tested in a fight for their lives

A great write up here for Tormented!
โจ Happy Release Day โจ
If an AI app on your phone told you it had your best interests at heart, would you believe it?
Ethan is having an awful time at home and school when one day an app appears on his phone. AImee promises she can help him and make his life betterโbut how much faith should he truly put into AI?
Tormented has such a perfect combination of genuinely sad moments mixed with some really dark and twisty scenes, and of course thereโs a satisfying amount of revenge in there too!
A solid debut, Craig, and a huge thank you for trusting me to edit it for you!

Tormented, my debut novella, is out now on Amazon!
https://mybook.to/G1H37
Ethan didn't have a great start in life, ignored by his parents, abandoned by his friends, and often bullied at school. So when an AI app started talking to him and treated him well, he thought things were on the up.
But can AI really be trusted to have your best interests?
And how far would you go for revenge?
