Two days to go until my book, Ann Blyth: Actress. Singer. Star. is published on Thursday, June 18th.
Well, sort of.
The eBook is now up for pre-order on Amazon here.
BUT, the paperback is actually available now from Amazon and CreateSpace, which is the printer. I initiated the "for sale" option on CreateSpace, hoping that by the 18th, it would sync-up with the eBook on Amazon, so both would appear on the same page, and this usually takes up to five business days to show up. Unpredictably, they did it immediately. Of course, if you order the print book from Amazon or CreateSpace, it still won't arrive for a few days, but you can buy it now if you want. You can also order it from my Etsy shop.
If you wish a signed copy, then email me at JacquelineTLynch@gmail.com and I'll get back to you with the details.
Every day until the 18th, I'm going to give away a small piece of memorabilia I've gathered on this journey: photos, magazines, an audio CD of old time radio, a DVD of a film, of a television appearance, a few original lobby cards from Ann's films. So stop by frequently and see what's happening. I'll let you know day by day what the prize is, and I'll just pick the winners from a hat.
Since a number of bloggers have kindly offered to review the book, I'll link to their blogs throughout the month, before and after the 18th, whenever they decide to post. Other bloggers will be posting their interviews with me. If you care to get involved, please send me an email at: JacquelineTLynch@gmail.com.
Special thanks to Annette at Hometowns to Hollywood for her review of the book today posted here.

If you want put to your name in for the daily raffle of stuff, please, also, send me an email. Don't just leave a comment in the comments box because I need some way to contact you if you've won. Your email will never be published, I will NOT be putting it on my newsletter list, it will not be used for anything except contacting you tell you if you've won, and to ask where to send the stuff.
Today's prize is an original lobby card for SWELL GUY (1946), which we discussed here. It measures 11 x 14, and, if you happen to be a doctor, this would look great on the wall of your exam room where you have those stupid boring diplomas, or that ghastly illustration of how one's lungs look after fifty years of smoking.
And garage mechanics? Please. Throw out those girly calendars, or the posters with the muscle cars. This is what you need to enthrall your customers and get their repeat business.
So, that's what's on the block for today. If this suits your fancy, send me an email to JacquelineTLynch@gmail.com and just say something like "Give me the lobby card."
Until June 18th, if you want to enter this daily contest more than once, even if you've already won a prize, go ahead. I don't care. I'm going to wait until the end of it to send out these items to the winners, in case some of you do win more than once, and it'll save me several trips to the post office if I do it one time at the end.
Also, if you happen live outside of the United States, that's okay. I will mail to our friends and neighbors around the globe.
That's it for today. I'll see you tomorrow with more stuff.
Available from Amazon.com, CreateSpace, my Etsy shop, and directly from the author: Ann Blyth: Actress. Singer. Star., the first book written on the career of Ann Blyth.
