A New Year, A New List of Winners

Hi! I hope you all had a good Christmas-New Year's season. We did at our house. I'm always amazed by the different ways God has blessed me and my loved ones. Anyway I hope that you had some time just to relax and enjoy your family and worship time.

I have slowed down to posting twice a week: Book Monday and then on Thursdays, a story of a strong woman, and I will follow that schedule in 2010.

This year I will have new books out in June, September and December. And I plan on repeating MEGA May, honoring the strong and brave women in all our lives.


Right now, here are the winners of the December drawings for a chance to win Her Patchwork Family, my December Love Inspired Historical romance.

Virginia (lead (at)hotshot(dot)com)

Linda Henderson (seriousreader (at)live (dot)com)

These four winners should contact me this week with their mailing addresses. (Go to my homepage http://www.booksbylyncote.com and click Contact and send me an email.)

Some of you disqualified yourselves by not including your email addresses with your comments.

The next chance to win books here will be in May for the MEGA May basket of books and goodies!
Happy New Year! And God bless!--Lyn

First Winner of a copy of Her Inheritance Forever is...

Happy Sunday! We attended church last night. (Since we live in a tourist area, our church holds an extra service during the summers.) So after a lovely breakfast with my dh and a pleasant time out on our porch, I decided I'd better find out who won the first free copy of my latest book. I let my dh choose the name.

And the winner is (drum roll) Vintage fan! She along with Edna, Aldriges, Abi, Sandee 61, and Laura's reviews made comments and thereby were entered into the drawing. Vintage Fan, you have till Friday to contact me. If I don't hear from you, I'll have to choose another name.

I'd also like to thank the authors and some readers for posting such delectable Mexican-style recipes, such as

Lenora Worth's Mexican Dressing

Laurie Kingery's Taco Casserole

Abi's Taco Bake

Sandee61's Bunuelos

Laura's Taco Dip

Frankly they all sound delicious. And I am going to be trying them when the opportunity presents itself. Remember I will be gathering these and the July recipes into a PDF cookbooklet that you will be able to download sometime in September.

On a personal note: My dh, daughter and I will be driving south to the Chicago area on Wednesday. My mother-in-law who is approaching 90 has failing health. I feel very sad about it but am trying to keep a good thought, hope. I don't know how long we will be there, so if you notice me missing a blog post, you will know why.

But on a happy note, the weather is warmer today and it feels like summer at last!

Please remember that I will be giving away a copy of Her Inheritance Forever again this week. To be entered in the weekly drawing, just comment or share a Mexican style Recipe this week.

Hope you're having a blessed Sunday!
