Yesterday, Sharon told me I should explain what a spell card is. Since The Invisible Sister is a fantasy / alternate-universe book about witches, it has a fair number of spells. My publisher and I decided to create collectible cards, each with a fun magickal spell. Once the contest is over, I will post the example of spell card #1 so you can see it. The next round will have the cover of the book on the back, but these first ones have my huge face. Hm. Bonus.
So--keep the dreams coming to enter your name for a spell card. Or join my Facebook fan page. It's super easy, and I don't email updates very often, so you won't be inundated with Facebook emails. And of course, if you become a follower of my blog, I'll enter you too.
TO MAKE THINGS MORE EXCITING: For new blog followers or folks who join my fanpage, I'll enter you in a raffle for a $20 gift certificate to Amazon.com. If you're already a follower, you can enter the gift certificate drawing by posting a link to the contest on your blog. (Just let me know you did, so I can add your name.)
The contest will run through 10 am mountain time on Sunday (that's noon East Coast), with winners announced Monday. Winners names will be pulled out of a hat by either my son or his triplet friends. I think I originally posted Friday as the end of the contest, but I'm going to be in Salt Lake on Friday at the SCBWI Conference and having lunch with TESS!!
You guys commented some wacky dreams yesterday! :) My last weird dream was that I forgot to go to my college architecture studio all semester long and that my final project was due the next day. I worked all night on the model and when I put it up for critique, I realized it was not a good idea to make it a spaceship...of Legos. :\
FITNESS: I did my first round of EA Sports this morning and I'm happy to report: NO BLOOD! And I played soccer yesterday. Also no blood. I'm 2 for 2.
EA Sports - Woo Hoo! I just started my 4th 30 Day Challenge. Yeah, I must be nuts, but I feel better, haven't maimed myself, and pretty much enjoy the majority of the excercises . . . except the jumps. Oh, how I despise jump squats, jump lunges, and side to side jumps!
ReplyDeleteI''m linking over to your fanpage now.
S
had to come back and tell you this...
ReplyDeletewoke the littlest one up for school this morning (she's 8)
half asleep, she said, "chicken noodle"
"what?" I asked.
"Chicken Noodle," she said again. "He's a flying fish and he's red. I was dreaming about him."
then she woke up and couldn't remember much more than the fact that he was fun to play with. Started my day with a laugh :D
And - looking forward to lunch!!
Scott--I can tell you now, I won't be doing the jumps. Not with my cartilage-less knee. :\ So far, I've only done an upper body workout, and it was pretty easy. I expect they get harder...
ReplyDeleteTess--That is hysterical!! A flying fish named Chicken Noodle??? :) Too funny.
Glad to hear you're not bleeding in your new sport endeavors. ;)
ReplyDeleteNo new dreams for me. Although I did witness a mugging today and it scared the bejeebers out of me.
OH!! LT, that's so scary! I hope you don't have dreams tonight!!
ReplyDeleteOMGoodness! You made a link to my blog...I must be important now. I'm sure this means publishers and agents will be ringing my doorbell tomorrow. Thanks, Amy! I better go to bed or I might have forty-something wrinkles when they ring the bell...
