Soooo….the WINNERS of my audiobooks giveaway are…
MASSIVE congratulations to everyone who won! As soon as you’re ready, contact me to pass on your address, and then your signed audiobook/s will be on their way to you in the next week or two.
Huge thanks again to everyone who participated both via here and email. It’s been an absolute treat reading your choices and reasons. Sorry to those who didn’t win this time. š But, don’t forget, I have a couple more giveaways to come in a while, one of which will be an early copy of Blood Dark for one lucky reader!
I’ll be back in a couple of weeks with a post about Eden and Jessie from Blood Deep. š
A couple of months ago, we celebrated the release of Blackthorn on audio with a giveaway of the first audiobook in the series, Blood Shadows. To enter, Iād asked you to let me know where in the world you are ā and the response was amazing, both here and on Facebook.
I was so thrilled that I knew weād have to have another giveaway once the next audiobooks in the series came out. And, thanks to the generosity of Bookouture and Lorella Belli Literary agency, and your incredible input, we decided we could make the next one even bigger than the last.
THE PRIZES…
Blood Shadows proved so popular that, this time, weāre going to give away a furtherĀ 3 signed copies.
We were only going to give away one copy of Blood Torn too, but to celebrate it winning Best Paranormal Romance 2014 on Moonrise Book Blog (thanks to YOUR votes), weāve added in an extra three to make a total of 4 signed copies of Blood Torn up for grabs as well.
Above: Blood Torn Audio CDs (unabridged, 12 discs, 14.5 hrs)
And then we have the GRAND PRIZE…a chance to win all three!
That means there are NINE prizes up for grabs in total!
HOW TO ENTER…
The whole point of giveaways is that theyāre supposed to be simple and fun, so all you have to do is answer one question to enter. Inspired by one of my fantastic Facebook supporters, Dianne, who regularly chats to me about the prospect of my Blackthorn heroes turning up on her doorstep, your question is:
If you had the opportunity to invite THREE of Blackthornās main characters to a dinner party, which three would you invite and why? (You have to say why for your entry to be valid!)
Leave your answer either in the comments below or, if youāre not comfortable posting publicly, feel free to send me a private message via contact above. As I stated in a post yesterday, readers can no longer enter via Facebook sadly, but I do hope this wonāt discourage you from joining in.
CLOSING DATE…
The competition will be open for ten days to give you plenty of time to think it over. It is open now and will close on the Tuesday 17th February (midnight, UK time). The winners will be randomly selected and announced on Thursday 19th February.
So whether you love audiobooks or just fancy an exclusive signed copy as a Blackthorn keepsake, nowās your chance!
This weekend, Iāll be launching not just my biggest audiobook giveaway, but the biggest Blackthorn giveaway weāve ever done! Itās going to be fun, quick and simple to enter, so I hope youāll enjoy joining in. Iāll have more news on what you have to do tomorrow.
No more Facebook entries
The reason Iām stepping out of the norm and doing a pre-giveaway post is because things are going to have to work differently to how they have before. With my last few giveaways, Iāve opened them for entries via Facebook as well as here on my blog, simply because I know it’s much easier for some of my readers. Unfortunately, I wonāt be able to do that anymore. š
To my understanding, Facebookās most up-to-date terms and conditions state that giveaways are not allowed to have comments as conditions of entry. Doing so could risk a page being shut down without notice. So, for all my giveaways this year, Iāll only be able to accept entries via this site.
Iāve also recently had it flagged up to me that any time I post on Facebook, less than 10% of my Facebook followers have it appear in their timeline. If I attach a link (which I tend to every time), it falls to even fewer. Sadly, that means many of my followers donāt receive notifications at all.
Business as usual
Iām still going to make announcements on Facebook of course, and we can still have all the interaction we have now, so please do keep supporting me there! Itāll just be different for giveaways.
With all this in mind, the only way I can guarantee that youāll never miss out on anything is to sign up to my blog here because then youāll get an email notification every time I have news or a new giveaway. Youāll need to sign up via the sidebar though, not the ‘Email Sign Up‘ in the tab above as thatās for notification of releases only.
