Once again, YA Guy's taking part in the YA Scavenger Hunt! This time around, I'm on the RED TEAM, along with the other fabulous authors you see below:
This bi-annual event was first organized by author Colleen Houck as a way to give readers a chance to gain access to exclusive bonus material from their favorite authors...and a chance to win some awesome prizes! Add up the clues on each red team page, and you can enter for our prize--one lucky winner will receive one signed book from each author on the hunt in our team! There are NINE contests going on simultaneously, and you can enter one or all! But play fast: this contest (and all the exclusive bonus material) will be online only until April 3!
HOW IT WORKS
Directions: In the author biography below, you'll notice I've listed my favorite number. Collect the favorite numbers of all the authors on the red team, and then add them up (don't worry, you can use a calculator!).
Entry Form: Once you've added up all the numbers, make sure you fill out the form to qualify for the grand prize. Only entries that have the correct number will qualify.
Rules: Open internationally. Anyone below the age of 18 should have a parent or guardian's permission to enter. To be eligible for the grand prize, you must submit the completed entry form by Sunday, April 3, at noon Pacific Time. Entries sent without the correct number or without contact information will not be considered. For more information, go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page.
Personal Giveaway: In addition to the prizes named above, readers who enter my personal giveaway will have a chance to win a signed ARC of my forthcoming book, appropriately titled SCAVENGER OF SOULS! Like the Hunt itself, this personal giveaway is open internationally. Check out an excerpt from the novel on my website, and then use the Rafflecopter form below to enter!
Okay, got all that? Then let's meet the author I'm hosting, KIMBERLY DERTING!

Okay, got all that? Then let's meet the author I'm hosting, KIMBERLY DERTING!
Kim lives in the Pacific Northwest, where the gloomy weather (seldom above 22 degrees Fahrenheit) is ideal for writing anything dark and creepy. Her three beautiful (and often mouthy) children serve as an endless source of inspiration and frequently find the things they say buried in the pages of their mother's books, or on Twitter for the world to see.
To find out more about Kim, go to her website at www.kimberlyderting.com.

ReplyDeleteWell, I like the map you drew. You're not asking for the map, but I just like it. It is so cool!!! I like the "since I’m not a professional artist" HAHAHAHA.
Okay, being serious, what I like about the excerpt is the fact that the past is something you really need to uncover to finally proceed or move on to the future. plus the "terrible secrets" is really getting my attention.
That's it. Thank you again, Sir for the chance and for participating in this year's hunt again. :) Have a lovely day, Sir!

The excerpt hooked me right in and makes me really want to read the book.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway. I don't usually like to read excerpts because I like to go into books knowing very little about them. I don't want other things influencing that initial "ahh" moment when you start the book and the story unfolds for you.
