I'll be attending the RT Book Lovers Convention in Columbus, OH this year. (Yay!) I'll be running a special contest the week of the convention, the Author Scavenger Hunt Twitter Contest. It's part scavenger hunt and part social media interaction. Here's how to play: 1. Follow me, JeannieHolmes, on Twitter. 2. Every day I will announce the start of "The Hunt" and post clues regarding my location along with a special code word and time limit for finding me. 3. The first person to find me and say the code word wins a Super Special Sekret Prize. 4. Contest is open to RT attendees only.5. You must follow me on Twitter to find the clues. 6. Times and locations will be random. Multiple "Hunts" during a single day are possible. 7. Opening day of "The Hunt" will be April 28, 2010 and closing day will be May 2, 2010. |

I have a feeling I'll always know where she is, cuz I'll be the one schlepping behind her carrying the super sekret prizes.  That way she'll have her autographing hand free. |

LOL! I don't think that will be necessary, T'. I'm a Southern girl and follow the philosophy of "Walk softly and carry a really big goshdarn purse." ;D

I saw 'grocery shopping' but I read 'shoplifting' debim! Haha-- suppose it'd work for both though, wouldn't it?  |

Don't worry, DL, I'm sure there's more prize winning opportunities coming! I think Jeannie just threw this one in as an extra for the RT attendees.

DL -- This is a sorta-thrown-together-last-minute-shingdig for RT. T's correct and I will have more giveaways and contests coming. I have one ARC left to give away and you're not going to want to miss that contest. I'm just sayin'....  |

Well JK I think you should attend RT next year and then it could be called "The Annual Author Scavenger Hunt!"

Well, actually....funny you should mention it....but I am planning to attend RT next year and possibly running the scavenger hunt again. This year is a trial run to see how it goes. |

Hey, you could even talk to your publisher, and maybe a few other authors and make it an official activity for RT...that would be a very cool concept!
