Jill Myles kicks off The "Agent Holly Root" Contest!

Jill Myles's new paranormal romance book GENTLEMEN PREFER SUCCUBI releases Jan 10, 2010.

I read the first chapter of GENTLEMEN online and can't wait to read the rest. Her book has adult romance, urban fantasy, vampires, angels, and... hm what else?....oh yeah....HOT GUYS! What else could a reader ask for?

The fabulous Gretchen McNeil has helped organize a month long blog tour that covers various topics about Jill's writing process, research, publication journey, books, and much more!

In addition to her month long blog tour, Jill is also giving away a super awesome fantastic prize if you stop by and comment at any of the blogs (1 entry per comment!). Her agent, the incredible Holly Root - will be giving away a free Query Critique. Jill will be announcing the winner on the last day of the blog tour - Wednesday, January 27th.

This contest is open to all writers - adult writers as well as children book writers - because Jill's awesome agent is Holly Root at Waxman Literary and literary agent to adult AND children's book writers.

Even though Jill is an adult writer, the topics covered pertain to any writer. So feel free to drop in on the topics that interest you. It will be a fun and informative month.
