Kerri's Contests Update/Easter Basket Winner Announced!

Happy Hump Day everyone! After weeks of trauma and drama around my household, I'm finally having a great week. On Monday, I won the Reader's Choice award from the Manic Readers Romance Novel Writing Contest! Woot! On Tuesday, I won the Book Trailer contest by creating a custom made book trailer for author Ann Aguirre's "Blue Diablo" which hit stores yesterday! Squee!

If you haven't checked out my custom made book trailers, here are the links to two of the completed ones that I've done recently.

If you'd like one made for you, just sent me an e-mail and we'll chat about it. :-) My e-mail is kerribookwriter @yahoo. com (no spaces)

So, that's my good news...now you need to enter my contests that I have ongoing and I can give you some good news!

Here's an update of where we stand on my presently running contests:

1. Starting yesterday (4/7) and continuing on through Sunday (4/12), you can enter the Author's Studio Sisters Easter Eggstravaganza Contest on my sister blog at http://authorsstudio.blogspot.com/2009/04/studio-sisters-easter-eggstravaganza.html. By answering a few trivia questions, you'll be eligible to win a huge Easter basket full of books and other goodies from some of our talented authors at the studio! The items that I donated are in the photo up above. They are a ceramic set of Easter Bunny salt/pepper shakers & a hand dipped scented candle shaped like an Easter egg and in the scent of "Pure Seduction". Grrr! Don't miss out on this fab contest!

2. Here on my blog (see below), I have a "Share a Contest" contest running until Friday (4/10). Authors, just simply share a contest that you're currently running with us and have a free promo opportunity for yourself. Everyone else, just share a current contest from anywhere with us and you'll be eligible to win. The prize is your choice of a free book!

3. Write a reader review and win a prize instantly! This is an ongoing contest that will continue until each of the sites that sell my book "Miss Taken" have at least one reader review posted. The only site that has already been taken is amazon.com and the winner of that prize is Julie R.! Thank you and Congrats Julie!

Other than that, the following sites still need reviews, Whispers Store, All Romance E-Books, Mobipocket, and CyberReads.com. Also, if you see a way to do it on Fictionwise let me know and if you see my book for sale somewhere else...just let me know and we'll add it to the list! What do you get if you are the first reviewer on any of these sites? You get any book or movie of your choice up to a $10 value!


4. Last but definitely not least is my ongoing Red Carpet Prize Packs huge giveaway. It features 3 huge prize packs which total in value at over $500! This contest is open until (4/30) so don't let the time slip away from you. The photos and prizes are featured on the contest page of my website at www.kerrinelson.com. All you have to do to enter is to purchase a copy of my book "Miss Taken" from any e-book seller and forward me a copy of the receipt via e-mail. For less than $3.00 you get a great romantic suspense erotica book and a raffle ticket to one of 3 fabulous prize packs (they include such items as a diamond necklace, an MP4 player, and more!).


Sincere gratitude to everyone who helped to promo my book and contest and shared great promo ideas with me here this week. You've all given me lots of great ideas and hopefully lots of sales as well! :-)

Without further delay, I'll now announce the winner of my Gratitude handmade Easter Basket giveaway chosen via random draw from all the entries.

The winner is.....Sarah S.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats, Sarah! Please contact me with your snail mail information ASAP as I'd like to ship this out today by lunchtime.

Thank you to everyone and have a great day!
