I learned a new term this last week – BOGO – stands for Buy One, Get One (free, I’m assuming…) So I’ve decided to put this term into use! As some of y’all may have noticed, I’m part of a storybundle right now, the Women in Fantasy bundle. (http://www.storybundle.com/fantasy.) My novel, “The Raven and the
