Win a Signed Blackthorn Postcard

Postcard1a

Last week, I posted this image on Facebook and it received a fabulous response. As a result, I’ve decided to convert it into some limited-edition postcards – signed, of course – to give away. But this is Blackthorn, so nothing is ever that easy. 😉

Inspired by one of my lovely readers, Kat, who got in touch to tell me she’d attributed songs to my Blackthorn couples, I thought this would be a great theme for this giveaway. She’d decided that Kane and Caitlin’s song is ‘Do What U Want’ by Lady Gaga, and Caleb and Leila’s song is Coldplay’s ‘Fix You’. I’m sure there are many more!

So, to be in with a chance of winning, just tell me what song you think deserves a place on the Blackthorn compilation album. It can be about individual characters, couples or even Blackthorn itself. You can post your choice via the comments section below or on the related Facebook post. You’ve got until midnight on Friday (UK time) to enter. Then, over the weekend, I’ll draw five random names out of a hat and let you know who’s won on Monday. There’s no limit where I’ll send the postcards, so don’t let distance put you off! Good luck! 🙂

Hi Lindsay! I <3 the postcards! And I am thrilled that my email about music helped inspire this awesome contest! I can't wait to see what other peeps post.

Lindsay J. Pryor

Yay, the lady herself! Hi, Kat! <3 I bet you never guessed that email would end up here, did you? Peeps have been posting some awesome song suggestions. They're all over on Facebook. I don't know if you have an account, but check them out if you do. 🙂

I think the perfect song for Sophia and Jask is All of Me by John Legend. I feel that is how Jask feels about Sophia. I love the idea of the album.

Lindsay J. Pryor

I checked out that song straight away, Lori, as I’d never heard of it. Wow – it could have been written for Jask and Phia. It sums up Jask’s mindset beautifully. It’s an awesome choice! Thank you SO much for joining in and sharing it. 🙂

Lori S.

I,m glad you listened to it and liked it. Thank you 🙂

Kat

Hi Lindsay! I put “my” Jask and Sophie song over on FB. 🙂

Lindsay J. Pryor

Fab! Thanks, Kat! I’m heading over to take a look… 😀

Lori S.

I like for Caleb and Leila, I Hate Everything About You from Three Days Grace. I also like Welcome to the Jungle by Guns N Roses for Blackthorn. Still looking for our first couple.

Lindsay J. Pryor

Great choice again, Lori. 🙂 And total Guns N Roses fan here, so liking that choice too! Hope you manage to find one for Kane and Caitlin – am intrigued to see what you come up with.

Lori S.

I think Look After You by The Fray is perfect for Kane and Caitlin. This contest has made me want to reread all the books. Looking forward to the fourth and final couple. Also excited to see how things play out for Caleb and Leila. I find them complicated and conflicted 🙂

Lindsay J. Pryor

Your lyric choices are awesome, Lori. These are really moving – totally agree they’re fab for Kane and Caitlin. It made me think of that last scene between them. I’m going to check out the tune if I can find it on YouTube. And it’s fantastic to know this has made you want to re-read the books. I’m so thrilled with all the contributions – it’s been awesome. I’ll post them next week. 🙂 I’m glad you’re looking forward to meeting Eden and Jessie too – the last link in the chain. Ah, and yes Caleb and Leila have a LOT ahead of them. I do hope you continue to enjoy the series. Thanks so much for joining in and giving your support. <3

I know my post is late for the contest but I love these books and just had to share what songs I think fit. Playlists for books are truly moving and help with the overall feel of a story.
For Kane and Caitlin Wonderland by Natalia Kills
For Caleb and Leila Red by Taylor Swift
For Jask and Sophie Feel Again by One Republic
And finally for Blackthorn itself I like The Day the World Went Away by Nine Inch Nails.

Lindsay J. Pryor

Hi Sara. I’m so glad you decided to share these songs even though the contest is over. Thank you! I hadn’t heard of any of these but have checked out all the lyrics and they’re AWESOME choices. Thanks so much for joining in. 🙂

sara s.

It was a pleasure and so much fun thinking of songs that fit , although I think my moms choices up above were really stellar. Also congrats on Blood Shadows making amazons number 1 list its AWESOME your books are getting the attention they deserve, I hope that your succses only will continue to grow your writting is out of this world. I can’t wait untill blood deep is released, and I’m excited that you stated there is much more for Caleb and Leila they are my favorite.

Lindsay J. Pryor

Hi Sara! Your mom? I’m guessing Lori S as both your names end with the same initial? Do correct me if I’m wrong! But if so, it’s brilliant you’re BOTH reading my books – and both liking them. Between your song choices, the music in your house must be superb. 🙂

And thank you – it’s been wonderful to see Blood Shadows doing well. But, of course, Blackthorn’s readers are a massive part of that happening. This doesn’t happen without you! It’s so fantastic to know you’re looking forward to Blood Deep. And, yes, tonnes to come for Caleb and Leila after that.

Have a great rest of the weekend! 🙂

Lori S.

Sara is my daughter and the one who introduced me to your books. Thank you for giving me one more thing to share with my daughter 🙂 We aren’t in the same house any more but I get to spend time with her often sharing music and books. I was excited to share with her your website and music contest.

Lindsay J. Pryor

Hi Lori! I love the fact you and Sara get to share my stories with each other. Thanks so much for sharing my website and contest too. There’s nothing quite like personal recommendations. 🙂
