So, in honor of FREE FALLING’s imminent release (and I’m really hoping it’s up everywhere by December 5th, but since it’s the first time I’m self-publishing a book, it can take up to a week for Amazon / B&N to upload. Next time should be much easier)…I’m having a contest!!!
First, what you can win:
1st prize: Kindle Paperwhite (wifi only) or Nook Simple Touch with Glowlight, along with either a copy or preorder of FREE FALLING and a pre-order of BOUND FOR KEEPS (available 2/19/13)
2nd Prize: a $25 Amazon or B&N gift card
How to enter:
First, help me promote the contest by linking to this post. And then let me know in the comments on this post where you talked about this contest (your Twitter / Facebook / Goodreads, your blog, etc) with the links to your posts and you’ll be automatically entered to win. And everyplace you mention it gives you another chance at winning, so if you Tweet and Facebook about it, your name will be entered twice. I’ll also give you an extra chance at winning if you Like my SE Jake’s Facebook page but that can’t be your only entry. *
How to find the URLs to your links:
For Facebook, if you hover over the timestamp of your post and click, you’ll get a separate page with a URL. And here’s a link to help you do it with Twitter as well:

Dates:
This contest will run from today through Sunday evening (12/2), midnight EST. I’ll pick the winner at random and announce sometime during the day on Monday and post a blog with the winners so they can contact me to collect their prizes!
Thanks in advance for entering and spreading the word!
* I’ll keep checking spam to make sure your posts with the links don’t show up there – I’m hoping it doesn’t cause a problem and if it does, I’ll just ask you to email instead. But let’s see how this goes first!
Hi SE – Hope you’re enjoying your Thanksgiving holiday! I posted on twitter and FB. Need to figure out how to copy & paste the links here lol
Hey Phuong!!! Good questions – I’m going to put this in the post as well – For Facebook, if you hover over the timestamp of your post and click, you’ll get a separate page with a URL. And here’s a link to help you do it with Twitter as well:
