Five Years of Blogging

By Brian Abbott

Five CandlesCelebrate The Poisoned Martini‘s birthday!

It’s been five years since I first logged onto WordPress and created The Poisoned Martini. It hardly seems like it’s been that long.

Over the years, the site has grown, reviewed novels and book covers, hosted blog weeks (Blog Week VII is coming this December), introduced new features (like Writing Challenges and Live Reads), and seen the publication of my first mystery novel!

In honor of the occasion, I’m hosting a giveaway of Death on Stoneridge, the first book in the Syracuse mystery series. Try for your chance to win one of five print copies of Death on Stoneridge on Amazon.com beginning Friday, November 20 at 5:00pm. The giveaway is free to enter, but you will need an Amazon account to participate.

Look for a giveaway of five signed editions on Goodreads beginning on Monday afternoon, November 23rd.

Thank you to everyone who’s stopped by for a visit or two, or for a longer stay, to see what develops.  I especially want to thank all of you for the “Likes” and comments on the posts that have caught your eye.  Look forward to seeing The Poisoned Martini continue to grow.
