ABEA Day Two! Giveaway!

Today's Armchair BEA prompt is "Best of 2011," but I don't have the brainpower to go searching through catalogues, so I'm going to do the alternate activity for the day and host a giveaway!

So what can you win today?

A SIGNED [and semi-personalized] copy of The Princess and the Hound!

Want to know what "semi-personalized" means? Well, then you'd better enter!

I'm double dipping in this contest. It's both for ABEA and Utah author month.

How can you enter? It's simple! No forms, no extra entries, no follower requirements. I just need you to answer one little thing in the comments.

I've really enjoyed the response I got to how many people wanted me to interview them. I already sent questions to THREE people for ABEA interviews, but I want to interview even MORE after ABEA. But the thing is, I'm really terrible at thinking up questions. So if you want to win this book, you need to:

Leave a comment with one question you'd like to see in a blogger-to-blogger interview

That's it! That's how you enter. NOTE! Please try to keep your questions original. If fifty people write "What's your favorite color?" or "Why do you have a blog?" Then this giveaway was kinda pointless. I don't need brilliance, just try to be unique. In fact, go crazy if you want to! The more wacky the questions the better! I'm a wacky person. Just keep them appropriate.

You don't need to leave your e-mail in the comments. But if you don't [leave your e-mail] you'd better be watching for when I announce the winner, 'cause I won't be able to contact you.

So here's the summary:

Giveaway Details
  • One winner will get a signed [and semi-personalized] copy of The Princess and the Hound
  • Must be a resident of the US (if you aren't a resident of the US, PLEASE still leave a comment with a question, just make sure you mention that you're from another country)
  • Must leave a comment with one question you'd like to see in a blogger-to-blogger interview
  • Giveaway runs until 5/29
  • Winner announced 5/30
Any questions? Feel free to ask in the comments!

    Hmmm. I think a good question would be 'What kind of things do you like seeing in a book?' :]

    My question: When an author who becomes a friend asked for you to do a review on their novel, and after the read you didn't like it.... Do you sugar it up or express your honest opinion of your review?

    Ha! Myrna, I don't know if that would work in a generic interview.

    But perhaps I will do a post on that...

    I like random questions on occasion, something that breaks up the norm.

    Here are a couple!

    What is your favorite smell?
    What is on your mousepad?
    Do you collect anything other than books?

    Thanks!
