It's quotes like this that make me fantasize about changing the title of my essay to "I Just Want to Bee Alone" #iLOVEcorny

It’s quotes like this that make me fantasize about changing the title of my essay to “I Just Want to Bee Alone” #iLOVEcorny

Happy March 21st!  Have no doubt that you are squeeing along with anticipation on this epic day, the Launch Eve of the second book in the I Just Want to Pee Alone series, I Just Want to Be Alone!  I’m sure your calendars are circled in red and you are carefully setting aside your comfiest sweats for a cozy holing-up-to-read-the-book session, right?  Since you have nothing else going on in your lives or anything 😉

What does an author in the anthology do on a day like this?  Keepin’ it classy, friends.  You know, just some light yelling at my children to stop rolling around in the preschool parking lot and a little sweaty under-my-breath cursing over the massive laundry mountain in our basement.  So, really, the usual…

I am celebrating though; I gathered up all of my Pennsylanian homies (read: begged them to be my friends), and together, we are throwing a $25 Amazon giftcard and five signed* copies of the book your way!  The grand prize winner will score a book AND the Amazon gift-card.  Four other winners will win a signed copy of the book.  To enter, you must be 18 or older and live in the continental U.S.  Head down to the Rafflecopter below and go rack up some chances to win!

I love all my too-funny co-authors, but I think it’s really important we PA-ians stick together.  Mostly because we alone understand the importance of referring to our homeland exclusively as “PA”, and we’ve also all been ingrained with a deep respect for The Groundhog since birth.  We just get each other.  It’s a very serious situation on this side of the Mason-Dixon, people.

Together we are also going to be throwing a nifty book signing/Ladies Shopping Night Out your way (stay tuned!), but for now, just secure those sweats, cozy up and get set for some snort-worthy reading!  Here are a few teasers from my fellow PA gals to get you in the mood:

I know, too much good stuff!  Go get your fun on with I Just Want to Be Alone this weekend–we’ll meet you in the laughs!

*We’re still working on the teleporting bit and the PA Turnpike isn’t that stellar-y efficient, so the books will be actually signed by one author, and may include notes from the rest.

Congrats winners Stephanie O., Amy M., Jennifer S.H., Nicole B., and Faelyn W.!
