On Giveaways



Because I had to cancel a giveaway on a social networking site, due to changes in their policies, I will be giving away the bundle of three books pictured here (Forgotten Sea, by Virginia Kantra; Vampire in Atlantis, by Alyssa Day; and Shadow Walker by Allyson James) to one winner who entered our contest over on that social networking site.

Didn't enter? Didn't win? Don't worry! I'm taking my contests to this blog, to Twitter, and to Goodreads. I will give you all great opportunities to win great prizes. Watch this space. :-)

Where there is a will, there is a way. Glad you found a way around the 'social networking' guidelines.

Thanks for letting us know! I think the new guidelines on the "social networking site" are just beyond stupid!!
Thanks for the great giveaway, and for finding away around the "social networking site"!

I know I am a little irritated at FB for doing that. I have met wonderful people on all my authors''s pages. Thank you for loving your fans enough to continue the contest here. We sure do love YOU for it.

I entered.

Furious about facebook for doing this. Even heard on a book group on facebook that twitter is considering to do the same thing.

Many folks are going to tumblr, and I refuse to go back to goodreads. I had a strong reaction on how easily they allowed reviewers to deflame authors and when reported, they said "it's their opinion". I feel authors don't need that type of crap nor do they need to deal with it.

Ok, this is weird: I had a bunch of comments on this post, and I was going to comment back this morning--and now most of them are gone! WTF?

I did not erase them.

Happily, I have an email record of them, so they're not completely lost.

Gah. What is up with all this?

when blogger went down alot of posts and all comments were deleted off peoples pages. i couldnt get on myself till the next day. got to love the email part of it though

It's okay Jennifer. It wasn't you. A lot of posts have been disappearing and then reappearing back again.

Nothing that you done. Blogger is having some technical difficulties. It's been happening on some other blogs I visit. Though how do you get the comments emailed to you? I'm curious? I have a blogger that I now and then post

So annoying! Let's hope it stabilizes.

I get email notifications when someone comments on my blogs. You set that under "Settings" | "Comments" --scroll to the bottom of the Comments settings page where it allows you to give blogger an address for email notification of any comments. I do that so I can tell right away if I get weird spam.

I ususally delete the comment notifications out of my inbox, but haven't had time to in the last couple of days. Good thing!

I will be announcing contest winners and more contests once I get everything in order.

I can't remember if I entered on FB. :). I would like to be entered if it is still possible. I just received some shareem goodness in the mail yesterday. I will be drooling over them later today!!!

Awesome Jennifer. Will have to make sure I coast this way on my webpage hopping.

Hi Allyson

I've entered on FB and love your books written under Jennifer Ashley and also love Alyssa books.

I actually got to meet you which was amazing at my 1st RT conference in Houston way back in 2007.

Hopefully I get lucky and get to win one of your new titles ;o)

Cheers on your success!

Hi Allyson!
I didn't get to enter before, can I enter now?
And ugh, yes blogger has been going crazy lately...I havent been able to post even though it let me log-on so I'm not sure what's up there.
And wth is up with FB hating on contests?! It makes no good sense to me; but I bet another social media tool is going to come along and wipe 'em out now to fill the void lol.
