Welcome to the New Site!

YAY! It’s finally here. There are still kinks and typos to work out, but I’m really excited with the new web site. Green is the new black, you know.

Don’t forget that this week I’m giving away 5 copies of ON THE LOOSE, book two in the Katie Parker Production series. To enter, just send me an email (jen at jennybjones.com) with your address. It’s so easy. You don’t even have to write me a personal message. But if you want to, like Sarah from Canada (*OMG, I’m officially internationally known. And not for anything illegal!), you can include a little note. This one cracked me up.

Anyway my sisters and I are huge fans! We own book 1 but only borrowed “On the Loose” from the church library….Speaking of which, it really must be overdue by now. Must be why they’re calling here every few hours. I thought they just wanted to thank me for my contribution to the bake sale…or not. Anyway, it would be awesome if you could enter me in the draw to ease the Borrowed Book separation anxiety easier and the church can finally have back their copy.

I’m not the best at returning books either, Funny Sarah from Canada. But then I’ve never borrowed any from the LORD’S HOUSE either. Just kidding!

So I want to wrap up my Hawaii trip details (yes, I’m STILL dragging this out) so I can move on to discussing my birthday, which was last Sunday. Let’s just say my house was broken into on my birthday. (Relax, Mom, it’s all cool.) Nothing says “Happy Birthday like people crawling through your windows.

Anyway, Hawaii. Here’s a recap. We hate LAX International Airport. Okay, moving on. On day two of Oahu, we went to a luau. The host on the bus told us to sit close to the front so we could see the muscular, hunky “warriors.” Here’s the first guy I saw.

All of the dances in a luau mean something.

This one means,

“While she dances I will do isometric butt squeezes. Warriors must have buns of steel. Hey, nice breeze coming up my towel…”

And you know sometimes we girls have troubles with necklaces. They tend to get hung up on…things. You rearrange them and put them all front and center. It’s a never ending problem. Well, not for this girl.

She obviously is proud to let them fall where they may. Takes care of a lot of hassle because the necklaces are headed there anyway.

This warrior is obviously on the hunt for food. Clearly he ate the same luau buffet I did. I have a pose similar to this I call “I’m going to Taco Bell. Who’s up for burritos?”

That’s all the pics I can get to work tonight. Technical issues. Anyway, tour the site and let me know what you think.

And stay tuned…next week I’m giving away advanced copies of book three, THE BIG PICTURE. They won’t be on the shelves for a few weeks…but I’ve got some to share!

Have a great rest of the week. I’m off to watch American Idol, er, I mean write.

    Love the new site! Just wanted to mention a goof on the book page. The ‘On The Loose’ cover is matched with the correct book description, but the ‘In Between’ cover and ‘The Big Picture’ covers are not next to the correct book descriptions – they’re swapped. Just thought I’d let you know. (So, does this mean I automatically get a free book for being so helpful?)

    Hey, thanks so much for all the comments! Thanks so much for doing a little editing work, Edge! We have a list of things still to work on, but I’m glad you like the new site–minus a few typos! ; )
