My First Contest!

Contest Has Ended Already! Sorry!

I promise I’ll get those pictures up soon (I’m telling you, all this cleaning is for the birds!) but in the meantime how would my readers like a contest? “A contest?!” I hear you exclaim, “You’ve never done a contest before!” Well it’s not me being so generous, it’s Tate Hallaway! You know, that lady that wrote all those wonderful books in the Garnet Lacey series and kindly agreed to be participate in my very first author interview. She's giving away:


1) one grand prize of all the books to-date including DEAD IF I DO
2) five extra copies of DEAD IF I DO.

So that’s 6 chances-- SIX whole chances-- to win!

Here’s how you enter:
Leave me a comment answering this question: Do you have a favorite Disney or animated movie film/ character?
(Don’t forget to leave me some way to contact you!!!)
Ms. Hallaway has agreed to ship internationally so this is open for everyone! 

Contest ends on my mom's birthday-- May 30.

    Congrats on your first contest and to name a favorite Disney character,I'll have to say it's the Wicked Queen from Snow White.

    She's just so elegantly evil that I can't resist:)

    I guess I would go with Ariel since I had to watch The Little Mermaid at least 100 times with my niece, and after a while, I liked it a lot too!

    Congrats on hosting the contest!! My favorite Disney movie is The Lion King. It became my favorite the moment it came out in the theaters. I recently rewatched it and was surprised at how much of the movie I had memorized and still remembered!

    Congrats on your first contest Jen!! As a child I loved Cinderella and knew every word to all the songs in The Little Mermaid. As an adult I really enjoyed Finding Nemo althought that's Pixar and not Disney. I would have to say The Little Mermaid was my absolute favorite Disney movie. Ariel's voice was so beautiful and I loved all of the songs in it. And it's just a great movie!

    Awesome prizes! I've never read this author before so it's a great prize to win.

    Congradulations on this, your first contest. I posted all about it over at my blog but I'm also going to be greedy and enter your contest also. It's hard not to since the prize is a Tate Hallaway book!
    My favorite Disney movie is a toss up between Beauty and the Beast and Dumbo. There's just something about those two movies. And my favorite characters are Beast and Dumbo. But thankfully I'm not alone in picking two since lots of others have also. I guess with Disney, its hard to pick only one favorite.
    Here's wishing you mother a fab birthday when it hits the 30th!
