Get to know the Indelibles and win a Kindle Fire!

Introducing the Indelibles - Wahoo!
We're on Fire!

Welcome to The Indelibles Blog Hop! You have the chance to win a KINDLE FIRE by stopping by each member's blog. Each blog is also giving away an eBook! Yahoo!

By following the link at the bottom of this post, you can proceed to the next author (and check out the awesome, individual giveaways we are doing along the way!). If you are entering to win the KINDLE FIRE, don’t forget to make a note of the keyword at the end of every blog post - the words spell out a phrase you will need to enter the contest on the last stop.

Who are we? Marketing guru Shelli Johannes Wells has teamed up with twenty-four other indie and small press authors to bring you the Indelibles.

“We are indie authors who write middle grade and young adult fiction.
We are dedicated to leaving a permanent mark on the world with our stories and words.
We are The Indelibles.”
Each week, we’ll explore fun, fabulous, and fierce topics for today’s teens, drawing on pop culture and themes from the books we write. Check out our official launch Monday, January 9th for fun giveaways at http://indeliblewriters.blogspot.com/. We’ll also be having a “blogger” chat on January 11th and a writer/author chat on the 18th to answer questions about self and indie pubbing. See our blog for details.

And now with no further ado, I will introduce myself: 
Cindy Hogan
In addition to being a YA author, during the school year, I am one of those rocking substitute teachers you love and during the summer, I teach kids and the occasional adult how to swim. I love both!
I am also a gardening, canning, cooking, and baking fanatic. I just made the most awesome applesauce. There's nothing like it anywhere.
I rise with the sun no matter when I go to sleep. It's a curse, really.
I can do about 20 things at once and if I really concentrate, maybe 21. :)
Most of my time is spent with fabulous teenagers and I love to write about their unpredictable nature.
I live in Salt Lake City, Utah with my husband and two incredible teenage girls.

Change.
She longs for it
 
A Murder.
She'll never be the same.
It takes more than a school trip to Washington, DC to change Christy’s life.
 It takes murder.
A witness to the brutal slaying of a senator’s aide, Christy finds herself watched not only by the killers and the FBI, but also by two hot guys.
She discovers that if she can’t help the FBI, who want to protect her, it will cost her and her new friends their lives.

And guess what? I just saw the proofs of the cover for the sequel, Protected, and they look incredible! It comes out in March. For now, get just pick up Watched (only .99 cents during this giveaway) and you'll have one hot, warm winter read.
