In addition to the fun stuff mentioned below for the May contest, I’m also going to give away an advanced reading copy of Karma Girl. So you can read it before you can buy it.

All you have to do (again) is sign up for my newsletter by March 1. I’ll draw the winner after that date and announce it on the blog. So, good luck!

And thanks to The Good, the Bad, and the Unread for featuring my contest on their site. Thanks, guys! 😀

Today, I am announcing my very first contest for Karma Girl. I’m going to give away five Banes & Noble gift cards (one for each member of the Fearless Five, my superhero team). Each card is worth $20 — or just enough to buy yourself a copy of Karma Girl and a tasty beverage or dessert of your choice at your local B&N. Not that I would encourage you to do that or anything … 😈

Six lucky folks will also win Gold Rubik’s Cubes, courtesy of David Hedley Jones of Seven Towns. My main character, Carmen Cole, loves Rubik’s Cubes and plays with them all the time in Karma Girl, so I thought they would be something else cool to give away.

All you have to do to enter is sign up for my newsletter by April 15. The sign-up form is located in the bottom right corner of every page (except this one). Winners will be announced on the blog beginning around the first of May.

So, good luck!

What about you? Do you enter contests by your favorite authors? Or am I wasting my time and money here? Inquiring minds want to know …
