The fine people at Audible have generously given me a chunk of free codes for the Starshine audiobook, so naturally I'm giving them to you!

• I've launched a Rafflecopter Giveaway this morning - it will run until next Friday, July 11th, at 12pm EST. You can enter using the widget at the bottom of this post or the one on the home page, this link, or on my Facebook page. There are multiple options for entry, and you only need choose one. 10 codes are up for grabs.

• You can listen to a 5-minute preview on Amazon and Audible. Links to the Starshine Audiobook:

  • Amazon (purchased through Audible)

• Audible has a cloud player so you can listen directly in your browser; they also have apps for iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Kindle, PC and Mac. In addition, you can import books purchased on Audible into your iTunes library.

In other news, the hubby and I decided we wanted Aurora Rising t-shirts, because why wouldn't we? So I designed them on Zazzle, ordered them, they arrived, they're awesome! Of course once I had set up the account and created the design, it was a breeze to apply the design to a couple of other products and create a store.

Now, I'm under no illusions that people are out there clamoring to buy Aurora Rising merchandise - but if you fancy anything, here's the store: Aurora Rising Apparel. There's also a link in the sidebar, with a preview of the t-shirt. For now the store has t-shirts, sweatshirts, key chains, mugs, mouse pads and phone sleeves; I may add more items in the future if there's an interest (or I see something I simply must have).

In case you missed it last week, check out the newest blog post: A Conversation with the Intrepid Heroes of Starshine. It was entirely too much fun to write, and hopefully to read :).

[EDIT]: Just a note to let you know, the Audiobook now has Whispersync enabled, which means if you also own the Kindle version, you can switch seamlessly back and forth between listening and reading on your Kindle. It's a nice feature from Amazon!
