Launch Week---Rocket is firmly strapped

I've got an interview this morning with Fresh Fiction.

I'm not sure when it will play but I'll link to it as soon as I know. They are calling (I hope I've got that right) at 10 a.m. There are a lot of fun interviews at Fresh Fiction, go check them out.

I've got a PODCAST, that means my FACE, on video, next week, with Novelists Unwind.
Here is Johnnie Alexander interviewing Lynette Easton
The skies are always blue and the sun is always shining here at Novelists Unwind!
And every day is a great day for getting lost in a great book.
Join me as I chat with an inspirational novelist about writing, faith, life…whatever comes up in the conversation.
A book giveaway is announced the first Saturday of each month so be sure to stop by and enter.
For now, take a break, grab your favorite beverage, and enjoy the interview!
From Novelists Unwind,

I've got a sale price on for The Accidental Guardian, book #1 of the High Sierra Sweethearts series to help promote the sales of book #2, The Reluctant Warrior. The Accidental Guardian ebook is on sale right now for $2.99. Click Here to Buy.

And then TOMORROW The Reluctant Warrior is releasing! It seems like I've been anticipating this for a long, long time. Two books a year. That should whip around faster than it does.
I've also got a speech at a library tonight. About a 45 minute drive away. That's always fun (in a nerve wracking, self-loathing, why-am-I-not-better-at-this??? kind of way.
I know I've got one more book signing event, but I've got a couple of weeks on that (I think) and that's all related to the launch of my new book.

And I just sent in final edits of book #3 of The Unexpected Champion last week. Now available for Pre-order.

The finished manuscript of Book #1 of the NEXT series that we just titled The Brides of Hope Mountain. We've just titled it Aiming for Love......my heroine is a skilled archer.

My WIP is Book #2 of that series is currently titled Woman of Sunlight. I like the title but I"m not sure it's a good match for Aiming for Love.
Something to think about.

So, I thought today I'd give you this little slice of my author life.
And to take the BORING out of my whining about my busy life.....a busy life which mostly includes me NEVER LEAVING MY CHAIR.......I'm giving away a signed copy of The Reluctant Warrior.
What do YOU do when life gets hectic.

I don't own a hammock, and I probably couldn't get out of it once I got in it

How do you chill out.
Decompress.
Relax.
Escape (okay I'll stop now...either that or open my online thesaurus, but you get the idea)
I need to remember how to BREATHE!
I'd appreciate YOUR advice. Leave a comment to get your name in a drawing for a signed copy of The Reluctant Warrior. And thank you.

The Reluctant Warrior

Union army officer Cameron Scott is used to being obeyed, but nothing about this journey to Lake Tahoe has gone as expected. He's come to fetch his daughter and nephew, and seek revenge on the people who killed his brother. Instead he finds himself trapped by a blizzard with two children who are terrified of him and stubborn but beautiful Gwen Harkness, who he worries may be trying to keep the children.

When danger descends on the cabin where they're huddled, Cam is hurt trying to protect everyone and now finds Gwen caring for him too. He soon realizes why the kids love her so much and wonders if it might be best for him to move on without them. When she sees his broken heart, Gwen decides to help him win back their affection--and in the process he might just win her heart as well
