Day #4 Trivia

Days to book launch: 25
Days to BEA in NYC: 11

Today's trivia is visual, and for those who have previously read the Rhea Jensen series. Look at the pictures above and tell me which picture represents which character in the series (for one pic, I will accept two answers). The first one to answer correctly WINS!

Day #3

Days to book launch: 26
Days to BEA in NYC: 12

HAPPY WEDNESDAY! And Happy Birthday to Rachael, Sarah, and Strauss! Quite the day for birthdays :)

Today's question is for fans of words: The word 'balloon' has two double letters in a row, l-l-o-o. What is the only word in the English language with three double letters in a row?

First correct answer wins :)

Day #2

Days to Book Launch: 27
Days to BEA in NYC: 13

Okay, all you bibliophiles, today's trivia question category is Young Adult Fiction:

In which 2010 novel could one of the chapters appropriately be entitled Nancy vs. Goliath?

First correct answer wins!

START YOUR ENGINES!

Days to Book Launch: 28
Days to BEA in NYC: 14

Alright, everyone checked into work, looked over email, and settled in? Are all kids safely deposited at school and carpools returned home?

Then let the fun begin!

Before that, though, one quick disclaimer: People have asked me if it's going to be Rhea trivia on this site all month and the answer is NO. There might be a few questions pertaining to Rhea and very likely based in other books, but the questions will be actual trivia that anyone can answer. :)

Today's challenge is a rare exception, though. As a reminder that I want to hear from you, today is all about the comments. No trivia involved--just the ability to leave a comment! Easy, easy, EASY! The hardest part is picking the number that will be the winner... talk about a mind bender, so I won't think about it to hard and just say the magic number is 68.

The 68th comment wins.

Can you leave multiple comments? Yes.
Can one person leave all 68? Yes.
Do the comments have to say anything profound? No.
Do they have to be longer than a word? No.
Will they be deleted if they're naughty words? Yes.

I think that covers it...

GO!

A MONTH OF GIVEAWAYS

Attention: Reading Fans!

As a count down to the book launch of City of Angels, I have teamed up with other authors to give away a book a month on this site! (Check out the PRIZES tab!) Some of the giveaways are sponsored by me, and if so, I will specify that. Otherwise, you are getting the rare treat of having the book sent to you directly from the author so that they can personalize it anyway you like! Get great books for yourself or as a present EVERY DAY starting May 10th and ending on June 7th, the launch date of the City of Angels.

So how does this work?

Every day there will be a new riddle or challenge that will require a little bit of work to find the answer. The first person to get it right in the comments section wins!

What are the rules?

(1) To win, you MUST be a follower of the blog, so find the Follower section right now and sign yourself up!
(2) You must answer the day's challenge correctly
(3) You must be the first to answer it correctly (all the more reason to "Follow" now so you don't waste precious time later
(4) If 10 people ask for a clue before the question is answered correctly, I will provide a hint.
(5) Contact me with your book choice, personalization request and address
(6) Books sent within continental United States only
(7) You can win ONCE, but after that feel free to help your friends and family win!

It's THAT easy! And hopefully ridiculously fun, because that's what it's all about!

Check in each day and win! What could be more fun than that :)

Oh, and feel free to share this with anyone (if you don't mind the competition)

I'm Typing as Fast as I Can! *pant-pant* I Swear!

So my first book comes out in June. That book is finished and to the press.

My second book is due out in August... that one is not finished nor to the press.


To the writers of the world, I offer this advice: do not release two books two months apart. Releasing 4 in 6 months? I'm pretty sure that's insanity, but oh well! It means that 2010 will NOT be a boring year for me!

So, if I don't answer my phone or get back to personal emails, sowwy :(

But Margot, if you notice me missing your birthday party then text me, because that just means I'm in a time vacuum and I'll hit myself if I come out of it on my own only to discover that I've missed something as significant as a birthday!

Extreme Sheep Herding

Safe to say that none of us will likely accomplish anything remotely close to this in our lifetimes :) Totally worth 2 minutes and 50 seconds of your life!
