For those of you who won the influencer copies, I wanted to let you know that I talked to NavPress and they should be getting to you guys sometime soon! I guess they got mailed last week via media mail, which can take up to a couple of weeks.
So, keep your eyes on your mailbox!
Also, I’ve been having some issues with PayPal, so if you pre-ordered a copy of Double Shot and haven’t received it yet (unless you live outside the US), could you please send me a copy of your PayPal transaction and I’ll be sure to send that ASAP!
Also (you can never have too many alsos), I’ve been working on my newsletter (monthly? HA.) and hopefully I’ll get that out soon! I’m planning something awfully fun for Christmas!
And speaking of Christmas (did you like that little segue?), I’ve been listening to my Christmas music (I know. Shock and awe), and I’ve come up with a few songs that are must-haves this year (what am I talking about? Every year):
1. It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas – by Bing Crosby
No one else can match Bing on this one. Enough said.
2. The Christmas Song – by Michael Buble
I’m a huge, huge fan of the Boob – as Jon calls him. Oddly enough, my son is too ;). Apologies! I couldn’t resist a little nursing humor. 😉 But the song really is good.
3. Angels From the Realms of Glory – by Steven Curtis Chapman
When I was a little kid, my mom had Steven Curtis Chapman’s first Christmas CD, The Music of Christmas, and played it all through the whole month of December. So since then, SCC has become the voice of Christmas for me and this song is just a cool way of sharing the gospel in a Christmas song.
4. Baby, It’s Cold Outside – by Dean Martin
Classic. Classic. Classic. This is the best song to sing while driving. Particularly if you are driving away from Starbucks with one of those new Toffee Mochas and there’s frost on the windows. (And yup, they can make those with fake milk.)
5. Please Come Home For Christmas – by Bryan Duncan
One of my favorite rockin’ Christmas songs ever. Though, I must say that I hated this song the Christmas Jon and I were engaged and apart. Sort of like I can’t stand “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” when we won’t be. Honestly. Tears have ensued because of such things.
Anyhow.
I’ll keep you updated as this list changes, as I’m sure it will! 🙂
Hope you’re having a great weekend!

I got mine one day this week – Friday, I think.
It's been crazy around here [four kids, date night, DH going out of town, changing clothes to winter… etc.
I can. not. wait to dive in though :). Started Cool Beans again and working my way through :).
Christmans music…
I think my all time favorite Christmas song is 'Oh, Santa' from VeggieTales. Or maybe that's my favorite silly song… Christmas song… I honestly don't know off the top of my head… 🙂
Thank you!!
Carol
Be sure to YouTube "12 Days of Christmas" by Straight No Chaser…it's too much fun! Looove their version of "Hark The Herald Angels Sing/Angels We Have Heard On High" as well!
Hey,
Just finished ready 'cool beans' on my kindle app really good! I also downloaded excerps from the next 2 any chance the will be free any time soon?
I don't really have any christmas cd's I am intended to buy the Glee christmas cd when it comes out at the end of the month though 🙂 My favourite christmas carols though would be hark the herald angels sing and we 3 kings also slient night 🙂 I can't wait to put up the christmas tree I am half way through my christmass shopping too!
I got mine a few days ago, struggling to fit in some recreational reading between school work and work, I am over half way done! It's a sweet sorrow LOL great to read it, sad that it's almost over!
Anyways, I forgot I pre-ordered it when I signed up for the influencer copy and then I forgot I got the influencer copy (I should think about fitting more coffee breaks in, I've cut down but my sanity level has dropped since then) and went online and bought my sister a copy so I have an extra! That being said, if you read this and are not Erynn and really want/need a copy of Double Shot e-mail me and I'll mail it out to you FOR FREE! I don't want it to sit next to my copy on my shelves, never to be read! FairTiffB @ gmail.com

My favorite christmas songs are probably last christmas by wham and white christmas by bing crosby and the christmas song by michael buble and relient k twelve days of christmas just a few favorites
I LOVE SCC! He rocks my socks off, you should read his wife's book: Choosing to See, great book, tearjerker for sure!
I got my influencer copy, read it, loved it, and reviewed it. 🙂
I have read both of your series on my kindle and loved them both. This is embarrassing, but I read both of them in 4 days! Guess I had some time on my hands. Anyway, hoping you are still writing. Looking forward to more of your books!
My absolute favorite Christmas song: Carol of the Bells by Point of Grace. Favorite Album is SCC's The Music of Christmas.
No one every mentions Bryan Duncan! His version of Please Come Home for Christmas is one of my favorite songs. All the songs you listened are in my Christmas rotation. I've got one more for you~All I Want For Christmas Is You by the Newsboys. Its my Christmas happy song this year.
Received my influencer copy last week and loved it. Will spread the word!!
Got my copy & i am LOVING it so far! 🙂
I will be reading Double Shot on the ship – the same ship you guys are supposed to be on. Reading your book will somewhat feel like you're there. =)
