In the past, I've normally done a giveaway for my birthday or to celebrate the anniversary of Scandalous Women, but this year I decided to do something different. I'm giving away a copy of A Haunted History of Invisible Women by my friend and fellow author Leanna Renee Hieber and her co-author Andrea Janes . This is a fantastic book not just for ghost lovers but also women's history lovers. "Deliciously eerie.” —Leslie Rule, Bestselling Author From the notorious Lizzie Borden to the innumerable, haunted rooms of Sarah Winchester's mysterious mansion this offbeat, insightful, first-ever book of its kind from the brilliant guides behind “Boroughs of the Dead,” featured on NPR.org, The New York Times , and Jezebel, explores the history behind America’s female ghosts, the stereotypes, myths, and paranormal tales that swirl around them, what their stories reveal about us—and why they haunt us . . . Sorrowful widows, vengeful jezebels, innocent maidens, wronged love
I just found out that Scandalous Women was just given an "Excellent Blog Award" by World of Royalty and Reading the Past (7/14). Wow! Thank you so much.

I keep forgetting to thank you for including my blog in your listing of historical blogs on your sidebar. So here I go, "Thank you:)"
By the way, my friend Greek blogger Christos who is a political blogger, but who loves history included one of your older posts about Mary Tudor on his post for today:

Have a great remainder of the week!
tons of great finds! I especially appreciate the Edwardian site. I was just surfing looking for clothing and architecture references of this period. (Illustrating a book cover that takes place during this time)
This site is a huge help. thanks!
Love your avatar! And thanks so much for passing on the "Excellent Blog Award" to me. I feel so honored and shy all of a sudden.
I will definitely pay it forward. With your support, I feel like I'm in good bad-girl company!
Cheers, Joyce
I don't know if I've said this before, but you should put all of your posts in a book titled "Scandolous Women." I'd buy it!!!!
BTW, I nominated you right back :)
Thanks for the nomination!
