Welcome, welcome, welcome to our official launch of the
Dark Side DownUnder blog!!!
We are happy you could join us on this fine Halloween Day. And an appropriate date to launch, don't you think?
Dark Side DownUnder is a blog of writers who are part of the Romance Writers of Australia's Paranormal e-group. We decided we wanted to showcase our members and the speculative fiction and romance genres, so here we are. There are both published and yet-to-be published authors in our group, so you get to see the two sides of the publishing fence here.
So how will the blog work?
Well to start off with we will be having Good News Tuesdays, Magic Thursdays (initially giveaways), and Darklight On Saturdays. The first two are self explanatory. The last one -Darklight On- is a spotlight on a DarkSider.
So we hope you can join us in the coming weeks. We are set to have fun!
Here is the Giveaway program:
- 4th Nov- NYT Best selling author Keri Arthur - First 3 Riley Jensen Guardian Books: Full Moon Rising, Kissing Sin, Tempting Evil and a copy of Kelley Armstrong's Haunted.
- 11th Nov - Mel Teshco - Stone-Cold Lover, Ice-Cold Lover, and Carnal Moon e-books.
- 18th Nov - Maree Anderson - Even Demons Get the Blues e-book.

- 9th Dec - Tracey O'Hara - Death's Sweet Embrace - e-ARC
- 16th Dec - Erica Hayes - Poison Kissed
- 13th Jan - Shona Husk - How to Breath Fire e-book
