THREE chances to win!"},"content":{"rendered":"

Hello, all! I’m back from my dayjob-related absence. I didn’t have much in the way of internet access while I was away, but the lovely ladies and gents over at the Chicagoland Vampires Forum<\/a> have been chatting away about theoretical plot lines to come. If you need a quick Merit (or Catcher…or Morgan…or Jeff) fix, it’s the place to be…<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
And now, without further ado, here are the details on how you can win a signed ARC of FRIDAY NIGHT BITES<\/a>. You actually have three–count ’em, three<\/span>–chances to win one of these lovelies and get a sneak peek at Merit’s latest adventures.\u00a0<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
1. Plattsmouth, NE Library Vampire Day<\/span>: Join me on Saturday, August 8 at the Plattsmouth, Nebraska Public Library for an afternoon of vampire-related fun. Wait–I know what you’re thinking: “I’m nowhere near Plattsmouth, Nebraska (wherever that is!), so what’s the incentive for me to show up?” \u00a0First of all, the schedule rocks:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
11:00-12:00 – Chloe Neill reading, Q&A session, book sale and booksigning<\/div>\n
12:00-1:00 – Free pizza and vampire trivia game. With PRIZES! (hint hint)<\/div>\n
1:00-3:00 – Free screening of Twilight<\/span>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Second, Saturday will be your chance to ask me all those deets you’ve been mulling over since April.\u00a0<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Third, I’ll make my confession–I haven’t had a chance to read Twilight<\/span> yet (I know, I know, but I have a good reason: I try not to read vampire books since I’m writing vampires books.) That means the movie will be completely new to me, and my first opportunity to decide whether I’m joining Team Jacob or Team Edward. Are these guys all they’re cracked up to be? Watch and see . . .<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Fourth, did I mention PRIZES? \u00a0As part of the vampire trivia contest, the very generous Plattsmouth Library will be giving away two signed copies of SOME GIRLS BITE, and I’ll be giving away a signed ARC of FRIDAY NIGHT BITES, as well as some other goodies.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In case none of the above get you excited, did I mention the free lunch?? \u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
2. Book Blogger Appreciation Week<\/span>: During the week of September 14-18, 2009, reader and writers will celebrate Book Blogger Appreciation Week<\/a>. A signed ARC of FRIDAY NIGHT BITES will be one of the giveaways, so if you’re a book blogger, get over to the web site and get registered. And hurry–registration ends on August 15, 2009<\/a>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
3. Comment Contest<\/span>: To enter my ARC giveaway, leave a comment on this post and tell me about your favorite character from Some Girls Bite<\/a>, and why they trip your trigger. I’ll pick one lucky commenter at random. \u00a0This contest will close at 12:01 a.m. on Monday, August 10, so you have a full week to enter!\u00a0<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Want another chance to win? Here are some additional entry methods:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
1. Join the Chloe Neill Mailing List<\/span>: If you haven’t already joined the mailing list, send me an e-mail (chloe at chloeneill [dot] com) with “Mailing List – ARC” in the subject line. \u00a0New members who sign up via e-mail using that subject line will receive one (1) additional contest entry. But hurry–e-mails must be received by the contest deadline (12:01 a.m. on Monday, August 10).<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
2. Give a Chicagoland Vampires Shout-out<\/span>: Do you have a blog? Web site? Myspace page? Facebook page? Twitter? If you blog (or Tweet, or status, etc.) and let other folks know about the October 6, 2009 release of Friday Night Bites, you’ll receive three (3) additional contest entries. \u00a0To enter,\u00a0before the contest deadline\u00a0(12:01 a.m. on Monday, August 10),\u00a0post your shout-out AND\u00a0e-mail me with a link.\u00a0<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
GOOD LUCK!<\/div>\n
