***New Updates!!! See Below!!!***
Welcome to my Week of Winning at the KerriBookWriter Blog! Starting today and running through next Saturday, we'll have Daily Winners! So, be sure to come back each day and participate for more prizes!
Here's the deal...
This is the last week in the TextNovel contest and I've slipped down to number 12 this week! Eeek! I need you to go and vote for me or refer a friend/family member to do the same.
***All the contests this week will require at least one new vote by you or referred by you in order to be eligible to win.***
That being said...Click here for the detailed voting instructions, if needed.
Now, here's how the Week of Winning will work.
All daily contests run from 5 a.m. (Central time) until 11:59 p.m. (Central time) each day. Only votes received during those times each day will make you eligible to win that day's prize. In addition to the vote by you (or a referred person on your behalf), you must participate in the day's topic or event to be eligible! You can win more than once so keep coming back! Contest is open to all readers and authors, too! Also, if you are outside the U.S. and win a daily prize I do reserve the right to substitute the prize for an online gift certificate at my discretion (as shipping outside the U.S. can be expensive).
Here's a sneak peek at the week's event schedule and TODAY's kick-off Contest!
Saturday, October 24th: Winner will receive a 2 free e-books of your choice (any author) OR 1 paperback book of your choice (any author)!
The Event: Make me laugh! Yep, I need a good laugh after this past week. So, tell me your best joke (preferably Halloween/monster themed). Just post it here on the blog along with the username you used to vote today at Text Novel!
Day #1 Update: Some people posted jokes and some people voted but no one did both. As the rules state above, you must do both to qualify for today's prize. A prior vote doesn't count. It must be a new vote by you (OR someone you referred to vote). This is the only way I can move up in the standings. Since no one qualified for this prize yet, it is still up for grabs. I'll extend today's prize until midnight (Central time) on 10/31/09. Good luck! If you've already posted a joke, please refer someone to vote and post their user name here between today and midnight 10/31/09 to qualify!
Sunday, October 25th: Winner will receive: A candle collection gift box!
The Event: Vote for me at TextNovel by tonight and be eligible to win the lighthouse Tote O Books Contest and today's bonus prize! Then...come back here to my blog and leave me your username from the TextNovel vote & tell me your favorite type of Halloween candy!
Day #2 Update: Again, some people posted their fave candy and some people voted but no one did both. A couple of people say they voted but I don't see it showing up under your user name at TextNovel. So, if you have a confirmation message for your subscription from TextNovel dated 10/25 you can forward that to me. As the rules state above, you must do both to qualify for today's prize. A prior vote doesn't count. It must be a new vote by you (OR someone you referred to vote). This is the only way I can move up in the standings. Since no one qualified for this prize yet, it is still up for grabs. I'll extend today's prize until midnight (Central time) on 10/31/09. Good luck! If you've already posted your fave candy, please refer someone to vote and post their user name here between today and midnight 10/31/09 to qualify!
BONUS update: I'll announce the winner in the Tote O' Books Contest this weekend! We did have a winner in that one! Whew! Thanks to all who participated!
Monday, October 26th: Winner will receive: A sweet treat shipment from David's Cookies! They make some of the best brownies around!
The Event: Read my new chapter over at TextNovel and leave me a comment there (you can leave a comment on any individual chapter)! Then, leave me your username that you used to vote & comment with at TextNovel here to be eligible to win!
Day #3 Update: I enjoyed all the lovely comments and sincere thanks to everyone! Oy! BUT no one voted or referred a voter AND commented by the deadline on this day! As the rules state above, you must do both to qualify for today's prize. A prior vote doesn't count. It must be a new vote by you (OR someone you referred to vote). This is the only way I can move up in the standings. Since no one qualified for this prize yet, it is still up for grabs. I'll extend today's prize until midnight (Central time) on 10/31/09. Good luck! P.S. I really really want to give this one away so please refer someone to vote and post a NEW comment for me at Text Novel between today and midnight 10/31/09 to qualify!
Tuesday, October 27th: Winner will receive: Chocolate Lover's Mug O Treats!
The Event: Get me a vote over at TextNovel and then come back here and leave me your favorite EASY recipe! I'm pregnant and HUNGRY!
Day #4 Update: No one entered the contest today so this prize is still up for grabs until midnight on October 31st if you follow the rules to enter. As the rules state above, you must leave me a recipe and NEW vote between today and 10/31 or refer a new voter to qualify for today's prize. A prior vote doesn't count. It must be a new vote by you (OR someone you referred to vote). This is the only way I can move up in the standings. Note: I have moved up from 12th to 10th place but I'm barely hanging on there. The Top 5 are listed on the Home Page of Text Novel and I'm on the second page (in case you want to see the scores).

Here's my joke contribution:
Top Ten Reasons Trick-Or-Treating Is Better Than Sex
10. You're guaranteed to get at least a little something in the sack.
9. If you get tired, wait 10 minutes and go at it again.
8. The uglier you look, the easier it is to get some.
7. You don't have to compliment the person who gave you candy.
6. The person giving you candy doesn't fantasize you're someone else.
5. If you get a stomach ache, it won't last 9 months.
4. If you wear a Batman mask, no one thinks you're kinky.
3. It doesn't matter if kids hear you moaning and groaning.
2. Less guilt the next morning.
1. If you don't get what you want, you can always go next door.

Favourite Halloween candy : mini snickers
I voted using susan L. My favorite Halloween candy is candy corn and the pumpkins that are like hard marshmallow. susan L.
HI Kerri,
I voted as pen name orelukjp0.
My favorite Halloween candy is World's Finest Chocolate. I buy mini bars at the factory store and pass them out. I grew up right next to the factory and love the bars so I always share my love at Halloween.
Kerri, I've also already voted for your book and can't vote again.
I love chocolate.
Halloween Costume Party.
On the night of a Halloween costume party a couple were having trouble picking suitable outfits. After a while the wife got mad and stormed out of the room.
Fifteen minutes later she came back completely naked except for a lemon between her legs. The husband looked at her for a moment and then stormed out of the room himself.
Twenty minutes passed and then he came back himself with a potato around his manhood. His wife gave him a weird look and then the husband replied, "If you're going as a sour-puss, I'm going as a dictator."
A Cabbie & A Nun
A cabbie picks up a nun. She gets into the cab, and the cab driver won't stop staring at her.
She asks him why is he staring and he replies, "I have a question to ask you but I don't want to offend you.
She answers, 'My dear son, you cannot offend me. When you're as old as I am and have been a nun a long as I have, you get a chance to see and hear just about everything. I'm sure that there's nothing you could say or ask that I would find offensive."
"Well, I've always had a fantasy to have a nun kiss me."
She responds, "Well, let's see what we can do about that: #1, you have to be single and #2 you must be Catholic."
The cab driver is very excited and says, "Yes, I am single and I'm Catholic too!"
The nun says "OK, pull into the next alley."
He does and the nun fulfills his fantasy.
But when they get back on the road, the cab driver starts crying. "My dear child, said the nun, why are you crying?"
"Forgive me sister, but I have sinned. I lied, I must confess, I'm married and I'm Jewish."
The nun says, "That's OK, I'm on my way to a Halloween party my outfit is just an old habit."
I voted and subscribed.
