 I am so happy to have the opportunity to park my Goodie Room at
Writerspace and hope all of you will enjoy visiting often and send in for some terrific goodies!
I started my Goodie Room at Heart Rate Reviews last year and am very pleased to say it experienced tremendous success, not only because of the number of highly
talented authors who contributed to it, but also because of the very enthusiastic response I received from visitors.
If you've never heard of my Goodie Room, you're probably wondering what it is and how it works. Well, that's very simple. I've been addicted to reading novels since
I was in my teens and love to discover new authors. I also love to collect goodies from authors ~ whether it's an autographed coverflat, bookplate, a bookmark or something fancy like a
coffee mug or mouse pad. I got the idea for the Goodie Room when I found myself sending out SASEs to dozens of authors each month for an autographed coverflat or bookmarks etc. I imagined
how nice it would be to just send out one SASE and get back cool promotional material from 20 - 30 different authors at one time. I found other people who liked the idea too because we
could all discover new authors we'd never read before. Anyway, to cut it short, an idea was born and here I am today!
My Goodie Room has a treasure trove of fantastic goodies such as:
-
Bookmarks
-
Letter openers
-
Autographed cover-flats
-
Pens
-
Magnets
-
Postcards
-
Mousepads
-
Notepads
-
Keychains
and other such promotional items and surprises from some of your favorite romance authors! And I'd really like to share them with you.
 May McGoldrick's
current release, BROKEN DREAMS, is a beautifully penned romance not to be missed! Be sure to check out the author's website for news about future releases and also to
find out more about these wonderful novels from her backlist:
-
THE REBEL
-
THE PROMISE

To send in for your bag full of these goodies, please visit the Goodie Request
page right now and fill out the order form. The choice of envelope size and the amount of postage you put on it is completely yours. The only helpful tip I'd like to give you is ~ the
bigger the envelope and the more postage you put on it, the more goodies you'll get back! Believe me, there are a LOT of goodies! Leena's Goodie Room has received contributions from over
130 very generous authors! Ideally, an 8x11 envelope with $2.50 to $3.50 would be sufficient to get a bag full of some really awesome goodies. But, as I said, the choice is totally yours.
OVERSEAS Readers, Please Note: I more than happy to send goodies to readers residing outside the USA. However, for international postage, please check with your local post office to get an approximate idea of how much you should send. I cannot provide this information for you since it totally depends on your location. If you decide to send in for goodies, but find sending me an SASE with US postage is a problem, please send a Money Order Only (sorry, no checks/cheques or paypal) for the desired amount in US Funds. An envelope is not necessary. I will provide one at my end. For any further questions, please email me.
Libraries and Readers Groups are also welcome to send in for bulk-goodie packets. Kindly email me for further information.
By the way, don't forget to scroll right down to the bottom of the page to check out the Reader Feedback I have received for Leena's Goodie Room!!
I would like to thank the following authors and publishers for their enormous generosity in contributing to
Leena's Goodie Room:

Remember, sending in for your Goodies is as simple as One Two Three!
Just hop over to the Goodie Requests page for more information on where to send your SASE!
