Last Chance to Win Scavenger Hunt Swag!
Thank you everyone who participated in my Cover Reveal
Scavenger Hunt--whether you posted a piece or were hunting through to win one
of the awesome prizes!
If you haven't yet entered, let me remind you of what's up
for grabs:
Prize 1:
A beautiful oval fused glass necklace on an antique backing
featuring a kelpie--or, well, a scary looking black horse. It matches the MacArthur tartan, color wise! Made
by Renee of Stained
Glass Creations!
Prize 2:
More beauty + jewelry! A necklace featuring Vic Caswell's
actual art of the kelpie in a beautiful setting by Art by Stefanie.
Prize 3:
For the non-jewelry inclined: An 11x6 poster of the cover
art, signed by the author and artist, plus a set of trading cards based on the
scavenger hunt pieces--the characters featured on the cover!

some of the topics in the novel, and (thank you, Laura), about their experience
editing the novel. Take a little time to
look around these blogs; you may enjoy what else they offer!
Happy Hunting!
