Giveaways and Glorious Hats!

Is everyone recovered from the A-Z? Good.

I had a blast with this year's challenge and met some fantastic new bloggers. Thanks to all who stopped by.

And now, onto the Giveaway!

During the challenge, I passed the 100 follower milestone and, since this month will also mark the one-year anniversary of Write Me A World, I'm doubly excited to spread the fun and give a great prize to one lucky commenter.

I thought it would be neat to build off my A-Z theme, so you get to choose from:
  • A query critique
  • An edit of a 1,000 word section of your very awesome WIP
  • A copy of any one of the titles featured in my A-Z posts (Except the Oxford Dictionary, because let's face it, it's a dictionary, and I just wouldn't feel properly celebratory about giving that away)
Just leave a comment with which prize you'd prefer, and I'll use our friendly neighborhood random number generator to pick a winner.

Thanks to all of you for your comments and thoughts this past year. It's been a wonderful ride so far!

I'm off to the Kentucky Derby this weekend (This year's hat is on the right. I wore the one on the left a couple years ago). Next week, we'll be back to our regularly scheduled blogging, and I've got some great posts planned about managing a book launch.

Stay tuned!

  1. Congratulations on the 1-year and 100-member milestones!

    Plus, the hats are awesome, Nicole -- they're so subtle and understated. ;^)

    Enjoy the derby!

    And sure -- I'd happily enter your contest. I'd take a A-to-Z title copy. Not to be picky, but would I get to choose the title? Several of them I own or have already read (and there are even one or two that I might pass on with a gracious, "thanks, but no thanks." ...cough >Eragon< cough... ), but you also had many that your reviews made me very interested to read.

  2. Yup - you get to pick which book! Like you said, some people will already have some of the titles or not be interested, but if there's a new one that caught your eye for your TBR list - let me know.

  3. OOOOO, I'd love to win that Egypt Game book!! I love anything to do with Egypt.

    And I LOVE THAT YOU ARE WEARING a hat to the Kentucky Derby!!! My family loves Derby Day (we've never gone, too far away, but it is an EVENT at our household).

  4. Wow, Nicole! I hope you post pics of you all dolled up for the big race on Saturday. The hat looks amazing!

    And wow--what would I hope to win? Eep, pressure! Um, I think I'd take the 1000 word crit. I can always use more eyes!

  5. Great hats! And I second TL - would be awesome to see pics of you dressed up for the race.

    I think this is the first time I've ever entered a blog giveaway. Random pick...1000 word critique. :)

    OMGosh, I love the hats and I'd also love to see some pictures of you attending the race!

  7. Congrats!!

    Oh my gosh-ness! I loved the Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood!! Watched the movie until I destroyed it (old VHS tape got stuck in the VCR :( ) and loved the book so much!!

    Happy writing to you :)

  8. Congratulations on passing the 100 GFC followers mark, Nicole! I hope you had fun at the Derby. :) If I were to be selected by the random number generator, I would probably choose THE SEVENTH TOWER by Garth Nix. I've seen his work recommended a number of times, but never read him myself, so this would be an opportunity to do so. :)

  9. Thanks so much for the giveaway! I'd be interested in The Seventh Tower as well. It has been a blast of a challenge. Thanks for all of your comments throughout the month. I'll be tuning in. I need to learn about managing a book launch. :)
