Contest Day: Wishing Wand Wednesday

Happy Wednesday All,

So far I've had a prize to give away every day this week...however, you never know what prize that will be, so I hope everyone is coming back each day to see what it is.

Congratulations goes to Susan for winning yesterday's prize! You'll be receiving your PDF copy of Ciara Gold's The Keeper Of Moon Haven soon. Thank you to everyone who participated/commented in yesterday's Tantalizingly Tempting Tuesday of Write By Bethany's 25+ Followers Celebration.

Let's see if we can kick it up a notch today...

As always, please be sure to read the entire post, thanks!

Today, I'm pleased to announce the prize is donated by Will Simon, whom I interviewed in October of 2010. Will is kindly donating a copy of Murder By Magic, in which he has a short story. I've read it and it's a really good story about a couple that solve mysteries using their paranormal gifts.

So here's how today will be run...

FIRST: As usual, give me your first name or a nickname.

SECOND:  You must include your email address (or else you'll be disqualified, and I don't want to disqualify anyone!)

THIRD:  For Fun:  If you could have any paranormal powers (or what kind of  paranormal being) would you want to have?

One entry per person. The contest closes today at 9:30 p.m. Central Time (if I'm late closing the contest, I won't disqualify late entries, but any entry after I close the contest won't be counted). (9:30 p.m. Central time means 7:30 p.m. PACIFIC and 10:30 p.m. EASTERN).

Please be sure your email inbox is able to receive emails from bethany.averie@yahoo.com since that's the email I'll be using to notify the winner.

Tomorrow (Thursday) I'll announce who the winner is before I introduce the contest/prize for Thursday.

If you have any questions, please email me.

Have A Wand-er-Ful Wednesday!

Hey Bethany!

Don't enter me, but tell Will he still needs to write the Jonathon and Emma novel. NOW!

I'm with Suzan (already have the book)...the short story is so wonderful, J & E need their own book!

Oh, I would want to be a witch (like Samantha from Bewitched)! I would want to just be able to twitch my nose and end world hunger...twitch my nose and bring world peace...or snap my fingers and get from one place to another!
Bethany said…
Suzan,

It was a good story wasn't it? Tell others to enter today's contest...so far I don't have any entries :-( Anyway...shall we start a campaign? LOL :-)
Bethany said…
Tessy,

That would be fun wouldn't it? LOL I knew you had the book...you mentioned something about it before. It's a good story Will wrote :-)
Melissa said…
Gosh, I have this book as well! And Will's story is AWESOME! :)

Hmmm...I guess I would want the power to clone myself. LOL Having a bit of trouble being everywhere I need to lately. :)
Bethany said…
Melissa,

LOL I don't know if I've personally wanted to clone myself...sometimes I feel that way, though :-)

It's a toss up I would either want to be super fast so I could just get places quickly-but if I had that power I would just be tripping over everything and hurting myself, or I would want to have the ability to turn invisible so that I could just hide and vanish and of course be super sneaky
LOL, I have the book, too, I think. Anyway, wow, what paranormal power would I want? I'm with Tess....Samantha's powers. I always thought it would be cool to be able to twitch your nose and have a clean house!
Bethany said…
Valerie,

LOL I really liked your comment!

Thank you for your entry, I've put your name in the box for the drawing :-)
Bethany said…
I received an email from someone who was unable to post a comment on here (she tried more than once and it kept not posting it, which I haven't figured out WHY that happened...I've already started looking into it). I'm putting said person's name in the drawing. The first name is Debbie.

If anyone else experiences that problem, please email me and I'll see if I can help you or we'll work something out.

Thank you for your patience :-)
Bethany said…
Anna,

That would be really helpful to clean house...I think for that reason, I'd want Samatha's powers, too...I don't know if it would work for World Peace and end wars, but if it did, that would be cool, like Tess said :-)
Bethany said…
Okay,

I have 2 entries, so I'm going to go ahead and close the drawing for tonight. Stay tuned and check tomorrow's blog post for what prize is being given away and who won today's :-)

Okay, I have a winner I'll say who it is on tomorrow's post :-)

Get Thee A Nom De Plume!

Good Evening One & All, Shakespeare wrote in Romeo & Juliet, "What's in a name?...A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Disney talked about names in Aladdin in the lyrics, "Better get a nom de plume ." (the song, "One Jump"). So, for a writer, what does a nom de plume (or, pen name) say about the author? It could be a different spelling of the author's name, it could be a name that has a significance. They could keep their first name, but change the last, or change both. A pen name is also the name a writer will write under for his or her books. The name that his or her readers will recognize them. The name on the autographs and the one where people will say, "Oh yes, that's so and so, they wrote..." Some authors write under their own names. Others, for a variety of reasons, choose a pen name. What about you? Are you considering a pen name? What have you looked at when thinking of your nom de plume ? For myself, I&

Gregori Celebrates My Birthday

Happy Tuesday All, ****CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED**** In honor of my birthday (that was on Oct. 15th) I am doing TWO give aways! The FIRST one is TODAY!  Today's give away is a copy of Kerrelyn Sparks' Sexiest Vampire Alive . Kerrelyn, being the awesome person that she is, has agreed to give a signed copy of the novel to ONE lucky commenter on my blog. Here's how it's going to work and please read all instructions CAREFULLY. ONE entry PER person : If you choose to email in your entry: Email to this email ONLY .  Your email should state who your favorite vampire is.

If you choose to enter by commenting on my blog: Leave your FIRST name, email address, and what vampire is your favorite. It can be ANY vampire--but like I said, it would be really cool if you mention a Kerrelyn Sparks' vampire. You don't know Kerrelyn Spa
