The winner of a free ebook in my Hop Against Homophobia blog giveaway contest (selected using a randomizer program) is Sophie Bonaste! Congratulations! (An email is speeding its way to you right now.)

A huge thank you also to everyone that participated in the hop and left comments here on my blog. Those of you who bravely shared your stories truly touched my heart and I thank you for speaking up. It was a pleasure to take part in this blog hop, and quite a freeing experience to be able to publicly share my experiences with bullying and homophobia.

I will also be participating in GLBT Pride Month along with Beth Wylde’s Yahoo group and Forbidden Fiction. Forbidden-fiction.com will be guest hosting the chat on June 9th. For more chances to win FREE books, read excerpts, sample chapters and author interviews as well as live chat with myself, other authors with Forbidden Fiction and staff, I hope you’ll join us then!
