Emily Rachelle Writes

Well, I have bad news and I have good news. The bad news is, only two people (only two?!) entered my review contest. Sad face. (Note to self: back to school is probably the number one worst time to host a contest.) The good news is, this means I'm extending the deadline! The contest will now be open until either we have a minimum of sixteen reviews (you know, title = book happy number... or something) or midnight September 30, whichever comes first. If we reach the sixteen-reviews mark, the winners will be chosen and awarded as originally planned. If we do not, the contest will be called off. (Oh noes! Please don't make me do that!) As a thank-you to the two lovely ladies who actually did enter, I'll be sending them a little surprise after the contest ends regardless of how this goes down. To see the original contest rules (all of which still apply, except the deadline) check out this post: http://emilyrachellewrites.blogspot.com/2014/08/its-contest.html ...

Who: Readers, Bloggers, and Book Reviewers What: Review Contest When: August 20-27 Where: Amazon, GoodReads, Barnes & Nobles, Smashwords, or your own blog Why: My book is officially six months old! On August 29, the paperback of Sixteen will have been out for exactly six months. Yay! Partly to celebrate and partly because it's been a while since we did anything prize-oriented and this qualifies as a decent excuse, I've decided to run a review contest! The Instructions 1. Get a copy of my book. Ebook , print , library, a friend, whatever. 2. Read my book. According to most of my readers, this can easily be done in a day or two. I believe them. It's astonishingly short, even for me. 3. Write a review of my book. See rules below. 4. Post review on one of the rules-approved websites. 5. Come back here and comment on this post with a link to your review by August 27. Ta-da! You're entered for one of two prize packs. ...

As promised last week, here is my impromptu Warby Parker glasses modeling session! Feel free to comment below with your thoughts, my lovely readers. :)
