A GHOST OF A CHANCE - Excerpt
a paranormal romantic comedy
by Minnette Meador
RELEASE DATE: JUNE 22, 2011
Resplendence Publishing

Keenan Swanson is your typical, everyday graphic designer. Well, except for the hundreds of pesky, prank-loving poltergeists that make his life interesting (in a Chinese curse sort of way). He finds his situation precarious yet manageable—until witty, smoking-hot coworker Isabella enters the scene and Keenan decides he wants her all for himself. With a horny succubus who has other ideas, a burly city cop determined to lock Keenan away, and an evil entity who’s hell-bent on using Keenan’s seed to create a living demon, the reluctant psychic realizes he just might not come out of this alive—or with heart intact.

“Hysterical and very original!”
2-Time Rita Winner Wendy Warren

  8. Hi, Chelsea! Yep, a lot ore. I think I'm up to 35. Actually, I think I've written blogs and interview for all of them. Only a few are repeating an article... I tried to be unique on each one, giving away a little bit of my soul at a time. I should only have to visit each a couple times every day to keep up, which shouldn't be too bad. I'm sure I won't get any sleep at all that month! I just hope I got blog posts to everyone... I feel like I've written about a hundred! M:o)

  9. Ohhh awesome! There's 35 now? eek! :D Can't wait to read them all, especially if you took the time to be different on them :D And yeah it should be completely interesting trying to keep up on it... I'm sure there's going to be a few sleepless nights in that month.. crazy stuff :o *hugs* I'll try my best to keep an eye out too and poke you on facebook if anything :D
