How about something yummy and sweet? Today I’m giving away to one lucky winner a Cheryl & Co gift box of delicious cookies! (I’ve tried them, and they are really good!!!) This box of cookies includes the following:
3 Chocolate Chip cookies
3 Oatmeal Raisin cookies
2 Sugar cookies
2 Frosted Classic Cut-out cookies
2 Frosted Lemon Burst cookies

Winner will also receive an autographed book, and can choose from the following that I currently have available: BAD BOYS WITH RED ROSES, I LOVE BAD BOYS, or I BRAKE FOR BAD BOYS.
All you have to do to enter is comment below. Winner will be drawn at random and will be posted on Sunday’s blog, so be sure to check back then. (Please note that it’s up to the winner to contact us to receive their prize)
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Warm wishes for a Happy Birthday go out to Plotmonkey Pal, Crystal Broyles, today! (Actually, her birthday is really tomorrow, but we have a guest speaker on Saturday so we’re celebrating a day early!). We hope you have a fabulous, fun-filled day!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
If you’d like to be included in having your birthday celebrated at Plotmonkeys, you can check out the details here: It’s Your Birthday!



Janelle Denison finds it hard to believe that it’s been nearly 25 years since she first started writing romance novels. At first, it was a way to pass idle time while her husband worked swing shift, but before long it became an obsession to get published. Luckily, she kept at it (it took her over 5 years to get that first book published!) and is now a Waldenbooks, Barnes & Noble, and USA Today Bestselling author! Now, after selling over 45 plus novels, she finds that her Plotmonkey pals help to keep her stories fresh and unique, and she can’t imagine writing a story without their input. Janelle lives in Oregon with her husband, Don, along with two teenage daughters that keep life interesting.

When my kids saw this post, with the cookie box, we all started singing the cookie monster song! C is for cookie-that’s good enough for me. Cookie, cookie, cookie starts with C! Way too much Sesame Street as toddlers I guess.
