Once again it’s Monday afternoon in Kindle Nation, so we’ve got good news and bad news. And then we’ve got some more good news.
For the past week, OPEN SOURCE author Matthew Frick has been helping us all out by sponsoring Week #5 of our Kindle Nation KINDLE FIRE Sweepstakes.
We had a new record of 2,727 entries, and we had hundreds of winners.
Well, of course we had one big GRAND PRIZE winner. Kindle Nation citizen Amy Pippin Mire of Wolfforth, Texas was randomly selected from all the entries to win a KINDLE FIRE tablet. We connected with Amy by email and telephone to confirm her identity and shipping address, and there will be a brand new Kindle Fire arriving on her doorstep by November 23.
Those who haven’t won a Kindle Fire yet — yep, there’s that bad news we mentioned — will not have to wallow in despair for long. Why? Because we have already opened up our Kindle Nation Week #6 KINDLE FIRE
Giveaway Sweepstakes. The Week #6 Sweepstakes runs until noon on Sunday, November 20, and entry details can be found at the end of this post.
But there’s another changing of the guard that we would be remiss not to mention: we have a brand new sponsor for Week #6, and romance fans will be happy to hear that, after a couple of weeks of suspense sponsors, we’ll return this week to the world of love and limmerance with a highly rated contemporary romance novel by popular novelist Marie Astor:
On the Rim of Love:
Twenty-two-year-old Maggie Robin has been dating the irresistibly good-looking Jeffrey Preston for a year. But when Jeffrey proposes marriage to her a week after her college graduation, Maggie finds herself wondering if she wants to spend the rest of her life married to a workaholic TV show producer.
Her doubts culminate when during a ski trip to British Columbia she meets Taylor Denton, a handsome, free-spirited big mountain skier.
Maggie’s attraction to Taylor is undeniable, but she is engaged to marry Jeffrey. Will Maggie have the courage to follow her heart?
Also by Marie Astor:
- Lucky Charm – a humorous contemporary romance about love, luck and friendship.
- A Chance Encounter and Other Stories – a collection of short stories about love and everyday life.

Of course not!
Here are the details on the Kindle Nation Week #6 KINDLE FIRE Giveaway Sweepstakes:
There’s no purchase required, but we do need you to go to our Kindle Nation Facebook page and “Like” us. Give the page a few seconds to load, because for some reason it takes a little longer.
Then just scroll down and follow the prompts to enter the sweepstakes, and you’re done! (Of course, if you want to really improve your chances of winning by multiplying your good fortune by your good karma, we hope you’ll take a page from recent grand prize winner Steve Wisener’s book and pick up each of our sponsors’ titles. But like we say, there’s no purchase necessary.)
One more important tip: we recommend using a computer for this sign-up process rather than a smartphone or other mobile device.
It’s that simple.
Good luck. And happy reading!
