It's time for Promo Friday again! I'm happy to feature author Patsy Collins today. Patsy writes everything from short stories to novels, and is published regularly by UK magazines. Her stories have also appeared in Australian, Swedish, and South African magazines. Patsy's latest novel, Firestarter , releases November 5th and is already available for pre-order!

However, I could not let it display them because my sweet, sneaky son entered the giveaway without telling me - and got picked!  I had to disqualify him, of course, because I couldn't let a family member win.
