Forbidden Sea Signed ARC Giveaway!

Now Closed.

With less than a week left before Forbidden Sea hits the store shelves, I thought it was time for me to hold one last ARC giveaway. By hook and by crook I've managed to get my hands on one more advanced reader copy and I'm now going to give it away here on this blog. I will be holding a random drawing on July 1st, the day Forbidden Sea comes out. This ARC will be a signed copy. Because this is a special giveaway to commemorate the coming out of my book, I've decided to open this drawing internationally. My pocket book may hate me, but I want everyone who wants to enter to get a chance. So how do you enter? Just leave your name and an email contact in the comments below.

Good luck to all!

P.S. If you have a blog, I'd really appreciate your posting this contest on it to help get the word out and get everyone excited for Forbidden Sea's release! For those who are willing to do so, I will put your name in the drawing for the signed ARC twice. Just make sure to post a link to your blog in comments along with your email so I will know who to enter twice. Thanks in advance!

    Wow! This is a completely new thing for me (I mean the book...well, the ARC giveaway, too. I personally have never been lucky enough to win one. But hey! Some people got it, right? Takes a special talent to NOT win anything. *nods knowingly...cough* -- Just had a whole packet of M&Ms. Seems like a bad idea now that the sugar is knocking down my oral defenses.)

    So anyways.
