2025 Audiobook Giveaway

This June I am once again focusing on my audiobooks and I want to make sure you are aware of all the cool stuff going on!

Giveaways

Every full week in June I'm offering a giveaway for audiobook promo codes.

The codes only work on Audible.com and Audible.co.uk so you must be able to use one of those websites to be eligible. I’m picking a different audiobook each week to highlight and you can comment on the Facebook group post and/or the Instagram post for that week to enter!

The giveaway each week will open on Monday when the posts goes live and close on Friday so make sure to comment on each week’s post as soon as you see it!

I will not be offering the giveaway via the blog due to the risk of scammers targeting those who leave comments, sorry!

Here's the schedule for each week of the Giveaway:

June 2nd - 6th: Crown of Shadows

June 9th - 13th: Crown of Moonlight

June 16th - 20th: The Queen's Crown

June 23rd - 27th: King Arthur and Her Knights (this is the complete series!)

If you hurry you can still enter the giveaways for this week it before it closes on Friday. Visit the Facebook Group or Instagram

Highlighting My Old BookTube Related Videos

In the past I've posted a variety of book related videos on YouTube (some of them are 6+ years old!). My team gave them a makeover earlier this year with new thumbnails and titles and every week on social media I'm highlighting one of them just for fun!

My personal favorite of these videos is the "Author Behind the Scenes" video where I act out how I plan a new book. I was inspired by all the YouTube channels who act out different personalities of themselves and I really love how it turned out. But! It was SO. MUCH. WORK. for me to film and edit so I never did it again!

But it's pretty hilarious so I recommend you watch it!

Free Fantasy Audiobooks on YouTube

Did you know there are generous authors who have uploaded their full audiobooks to YouTube? Many of them are authors who aren’t in Amazon’s KU program so you might not have heard of them, but this is a great opportunity to try their work for free!

If you go to my YouTube channel I made a list at the bottom of the other fantasy authors I could find that are no-romance or no-spice-romance. Did I miss any authors that you are aware of?

My Free Short Stories on YouTube

Last year I posted a new audio short story to my YouTube channel every Friday in June/July! I'm not doing that this year but I wanted to call out one of these from last year which is "On the Observations of Sir Kay". It's a King Arthur related story and it was Narrated by Nathaniel Priestley, who also narrated the complete series boxset!

If you are curious about the audiobooks and want to try to an extra long sample go and give this video a listen! Or if you already own the King Arthur and Her Knights series audiobook this is an excellent addition to your library!

Screen-Free Activities Related to my Fantasy Books

In honor of Screen-Free week I want to tell you all about the free things I have available that you can do screen-free! Some of them you might have to do some prep work using a device (or print it out ahead of time) but all of them are inspired by my fantasy stories!

Recipes and Crafts from my Pinterest Board:

Make a Magiford Inspired Recipe

The heroines in each of my urban fantasy series have their own favorite beverage (and some have snacks too) and this board is packed with yummy examples from each of them! Support your favorite female lead, pick the one that looks the best, or make one from each of them! (I also have a few recipe themed blog posts related to my books!)

DIY Book - Gifts, Crafts, and Themed Rooms

This board has everything from super simple (like printable Library Card Valentines or Harry Potter themed Valentine Cards) to book club party games, to ideas for redecorating an entire room. And if you are OK with ripping apart a paperback book there are tons of ideas for how to use the pages for crafts or decorations.

Fairy Tale and Children's Book Crafts

In addition to the standard kid crafts (like a popsicle stick dragon) this board has printable games, and art projects that are fun for all ages (like watercolor silhouettes)!

Printables on My Website:

Unscrambler, Cryptograms, and Madlibs

All of these were created by the wonderful volunteers for past SheaCon events, so they were made by readers for readers! The Cryptograms and Madlibs have multiple versions from different series so even if you haven't read all my books you'll find something you can do!

Coloring Book Pages

Did you know have over 20 printable coloring book pages available for free on my website? Most of my series are represented and you can pick from people or animal sidekick images depending on what you're in the mood for.

Crossword Puzzles

Inspired by a side character from the Gate of Myth and Power series these fun crossword puzzles were created for past SheaCon events. I've mentioned these several times before but did you know you could print them?!? I didn't! (Until just now, when I checked, lol.)

And, of course, you could also read a physical book if you have some of those on your TBR pile!

Fairy Tale Freebies

As a follow up to the ultimate fairy tale sale I hosted last week I want to inform you of all the fun fairy tale related freebies that are available on my website!

Timeless Fairy Tales Maps and Timelines - There are a lot of books in the Timeless Fairy Tales series and related works (Snow Queen and Fairy Tale Enchantress ) and this page has some beautiful maps and extremely detailed timelines to add to your reading experience.

Quizzes - Which of my fairy tale heroines do you most represent? Take the fairy tale heroine quiz and find out!

SheaCon - The dedicated Champions who organized this fan event in the past generously shared the puzzles and games they created for the event so now you can enjoy them anytime! There are multiple blog posts hosting the different games (some of the games are specific to my fairy tales) and you can find all of them linked on this page.

So Many Short Stories! - I have a related short story available for almost every single fairy tale I've written! If you want to read the shorts specific to a certain book here's the fastest way to do that:

1. Open the book of your choice from the Books page. (The Boxsets have all the related content linked for every book in the boxset.)

2. Scroll down to view the related short stories for this book. The short stories are linked to avoid spoilers.

3. Happy reading!

Coloring Pages - If you like Coloring you'll love this section! Most of the available coloring book pages are related to one of my fairy tales series and I'll let you in on a secret: I have a stockpile of pages related to the Timeless Fairy tales series and I typically release two new additions every year! My website upgrade in 2024 allowed for a new new format for this page which makes it easier to review/filter them and quickly choose between the PDF and image versions.

Reading Order for all my books - Most of my series are written to be independent but some of them overlap with each other (my fairy tales related series do this!) so this page can serve as a general guideline if you are trying to avoid spoilers between the series.

Sarcastic Summaries of the Original Fairy Tales - For most of my fairy tale retellings I wrote a companion blog post that sarcastically summarized the original fairy tale I based it on (and pointed out all the places where it gets really weird). I have a tag on my blog that groups them all together or you can check the individual book pages for a link to the matching blog post just like you would check for related short stories.

Character Interviews - I mention my bonus short stories pretty frequently but did you know I also have bonus character interviews? It's a fun chance to see the characters from across my different worlds interacting with each other!

Pinterest Boards - If you haven't been to my Pinterest lately you really need to take a visit as I've been updating my fairy tale retellings board this year, and there are new quote images related to my fairy tale stories.

Fan Discussions - And if you are looking for a place to talk about books with other passionate readers both of my communities are awesome places to do just that (Facebook Group and Discord server)!
