Baxter is too cute. Our dog sitter sent this today since we will be home soon to share what he does while we’re gone. How adorable! #shibainu #shibagram #shiba #shibalove #shibasofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #dogs #toocute #toocuteforwords #comehome
I’ve chosen an excerpt from the first chapter, where Kellan is speaking at the Braxton graduation and receives a suspicious note from a stranger. In it, you get to meet Dr. Myriam Castle, Kellan’s mortal enemy, and her wife, Ursula Power, the college’s President. By now, Kellan is used to Myriam’s acerbic ways, but nothing can prepare him for the amount of time he’ll be spending with her outside of work in this book. https://jamesjcudney.com/2019/10/18/braxtons-fall-festival-day-18-excerpt-of-flower-power-trip/ #NextChapterPub #BraxtonFallFestival #CozyMystery #Halloween #Autumn #College #Giveaway #Freebie #Books #HauntedHouseGhost #Ghost #Mystery #Murder #flowerpowertrip #flowerpower #powertrip #explosion #masqueradeball #costume #germany #family

Today is the 3rd of the Braxton Fall Festival GIVEAWAYS occurring all throughout October 2019. Earlier this month, you entered contests to win a free Kindle copy and a free signed copy of Haunted House Ghost. This week, we’re back to giving away Kindle versions, but it’s five times better. You have an opportunity to win a copy of all five books in the Braxton Campus Mysteries in this contest. If you’re new to the series, you might win them all at once! You get to trace Kellan’s mysteries from the first time he found a dead body in Diamond Hall to the one under the library in the current release. Maybe you’ll figure out the killer if you read them all in a row… https://jamesjcudney.com/2019/10/17/braxtons-fall-festival-day-17-giveaway-for-free-entire-series-5-in-kindle-format/ #NextChapterPub #BraxtonFallFestival #CozyMystery #Halloween #Autumn #College #Giveaway #Freebie #Books #HauntedHouseGhost #Ghost #Mystery #Murder #kindle

If you’re this far into the Fall Festival, you’ve heard me whine and complain about marketing and getting out from behind the proverbial Internet wall. For most of my life, I’ve been shy and introspective. I dislike crowds. I prefer to stay in rather than go out. I tend to be socially awkward. After all, I am an only child and usually mute unless I have to talk to someone else. While it was different in my corporate career, where I led teams of hundreds and spoke in front of thousands, talking about myself is very hard. Imagine living with me under those conditions! Today, I share a video where you’ll get to see me in my natural habits… in all my oddities and nervousness. If you laugh AT me, I will send Dr. Myriam Castle to your house to throttle you with Shakespeare quotes. If you laugh WITH me, we’ll be in a much better place. https://jamesjcudney.com/2019/10/16/braxtons-fall-festival-day-16-video-from-jay-author/ #NextChapterPub #BraxtonFallFestival #CozyMystery #Halloween #Autumn #College #Giveaway #Freebie #Books #HauntedHouseGhost #Ghost #Mystery #Murder #family #writing #anniversary #video #oncamera
