catherineldfOn Sunday, July 8th, I'm kicking off a month-long fundraiser for wolf conservation. Why? Well, I just wrote a book about a woman who turns into a wolf (Silver Moon) and am working on its sequel so wolves are a big part of my writing life right now. Wolves continue to be endangered and to be far less of a threat than proponents of wolf hunting and eradication programs would have you believe. In short, wolves get a bad rap and, like a lot of other people, I'm pretty intrigued by them and I'd like them to stick around.
I'll be doing a book giveaway of the following (Pictures are posted on my journal entries below):
1 signed pb copy of Silver Moon, plus a copy of Willow Creek Press' gorgeous Spirit of the Wolf and a lovely bookmark from Northland Visions, my local Native American owned and operated gift shop.
1 signed pb copy of Silver Moon, plus an adorable plushy howling wolf from Stuffed Animal House and a wolf magnet from Northland Visions.
