Yesterday, my almost-fourteen-year-old son said, “Dad, let’s go see WHITE HOUSE DOWN, just you and me.” I’ve been raising kids for 37 years—I knew I wouldn’t hear that phrase again for a decade. So, despite the fact that I’d decided to skip that movie, I went.
The movie is a winner! I was shocked at how fun it was. You should see it. Channing Tatum plays eye candy for the women (yeah-duh), but Jamie Foxx and a little girl named Joey King sell the whole thing with some great acting. Plenty of explosions and the bad guys get it in the end. Very well done.
More great fans! Not only did Cheryl Dillenbeck win one of two books I’m giving away by posting the first review of Episode III on Goodreads, but Susan Gainoutdinov tweeted a recommendation to all her followers! And Melissa Kruger went so far as to get banned from Reddit for recommending my work! (I have no idea what Reddit is. :)
Give-aways? I’ve confused everyone, including me, with a bunch of overlapping give-aways. So here are the four most recent giveaways, two still in progress (and a promise to run them one-at-a-time in the future, per one reader’s request):
- THE DOLL, by Taylor Stevens – a drawing won by Steve M.
- XO by Jeffrey Deaver – for the first review of BRING IT! on Goodreads, won by Cheryl D.
- EYE OF GOD by James Rollins – to be drawn from Jacob’s Story reviewers on 05-July!
- A 2nd copy of XO by Jeffrey Deaver – to be drawn from Amazon reviews of BRING IT! on 12-July
Remember: for a limited time, I’ll send all three episodes of Trench Coats FREE to anyone who asks nicely -> Seeley@seeleyjames.com
Peace, Seeley
