Halloween/Birthday Contest!


Well, its time for my big, huge, awesome, fantastical, amazing contest I've been waiting for! And trust me when I mean big, huge, awesome, fantastical, amazing, I mean it. A ton of authors helped out with a couple of the prizes also! So thanks to those amazing, hardworking, gifted, generous authors! (I know, too many adjectives, right? I'm just SO excited!)

The contest will end midnight, November 17th on my birthday, and I should have the winners announced the next day sometime.

Okay, now on to how to enter. Comment with your name and EMAIL ADDRESS, if you don't have a email address in the comment, you will not get entered. Also, please only comment ONCE so it's easier for me. If you already commented and need to add a link or something, delete the original comment and put it all together in one comment. I'm expecting a bunch of comments, so this will make is easier and faster when the time comes for me to pick winners.

BUT, for the extra entries, there are about two ways you can get extra entries:

  1. Tell people about it! On your blog! On your MySpace! Twitter! Facebook! Bebo! Whatever. Just make sure I can see it. My links to all these things are on my sidebar, and friend me, if you don't I probably won't be able to see it and you wont get the extra entry. You get one extra entry for each.
  2. I will be having a survey on Halloween, answer those questions when it's posted, get an extra entry for each. So be on the look out for that on Halloween when I post the questions!
  3. If you find another way to enter, just comment (In a new comment if you already commented!) below, and we'll work it out.

Okay, now I bet you want to know what I'm offering right? I thought so! Okay the books I'm offering are:

  • Signed copy of Wake by Lisa McMann
  • Personalized copy of Sleepless by Terri Clark
  • Your choice of book by John Marco.
  • Boxed collection of the Blue is for Nightmares series by Laurie Faria Stolarz
  • I Heart You, You Haunt Me by Lisa Schroeder
  • Switch by Carol Snow

I might even add a book to it or not. But anyway, look at all those books! Awesome right? I thought I go for a paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi theme.

Between all the people who enter, one person will be randomly chosen to win one of those books or the one collection of books. If you were chosen for a book that you've already read, you can choose to give it to another randomly chosen person.

Sorry, this contest is only open to US residents!

I hope I didn't forget anything . . . Well, have fun and good luck!
