Whatever sort of contest I can have to promote my books, it can’t be that sort. {sigh} My publisher put the kibosh on the video contest. So. I’ll come up with something else.
But not today.

Why??
I’m so sorry to hear this, Holly. It’s so sad. Such an exciting and promising contest.
What about a fan art contest? Would that be counter to your publisher’s wishes (or yours)? I know that fanfiction is a no-no for many good reasons, but I’ve seen other authors post fan art sections on their sites. Just a thought.
Man, that’s too bad. I wasn’t sure how many Holly fans were into making videos, but I am! Even started some sketches as I was reading the book.
I’ll finish reading the book, anyway…i was loving it and looking forward to making a trailer for it! Ah, well, maybe the new contest will be just as much fun! But “better prizes” than cash??? Never happen! :-D
