Name a Book, Win $100 Gift Certificate (Is there more fun than that?!?)
How often have you seen a book and thought, "Wow. I could come up with a waaaaaay cooler title!" (OK, maybe that's just us. Whatever.)
Anyway...
Indie author Elle C. Turner (real name Laina Molaski) is asking for our help in naming her upcoming chick lit novel. Part of the Presley Thurman Series, Elle's debut (and yet untitled) novel will be released in August 2009 and she wants you involved in the book naming contest.
Wait, that's not all!
If you are a Book Blues Bookstore customer who wins the contest Elle will give you $100 gift certificate to shop The Book Blues Bookstore! The winner will also get his or her title in print, a signed copy of the first release, and your name in the dedication.
Groovy, huh?
Here's some info on the book:
Presley Thurman, lover of shoes and Starbucks, thinks she's starting a fun new career as a writer until it turns into something unexpected. The person she's to write about, a U.S. Senator is murdered! Presley hasn't seen this much excitement since the spring sample sale at Saks...read more about the book
Head on over to Elle's blog to check out the cover. And then get your thinking caps on because you only have until May 30. When you're ready to enter your choices, go to Elle's contact page and fill out the required information with your title suggestions in the message field. (Don't forget to let her know The Book Blues Bookstore sent you!) Elle says, "Enter as many times as you wish when inspiration hits or when you're just really, really bored."
The winners will be announced June 1, 2009, and we'll re-post the winning title information here.
So, go on now, get creative (but don't embarrass us)!
