Interview the Author Week! And Book Giveaway!




Every Saturday I interview new authors and give you a chance to win some exciting new titles!

Today I am going to tweak that just a little.

In honor of my new release, Immortalis Carpe Noctem, I am going to turn the tables around and let you interview me ... all week long.

And no Author Interview would be complete without chances to win FREE BOOKS?





I'll be offering up 2, signed copies of Immortalis Carpe Noctem as prizes!



So, here is how this will work ...

To enter for a chance to win a copy of Immortalis Carpe Noctem, all you have to do is ask an interview-type question (try not to ask one that has already been asked). For every question you ask you will get a chance to win. Limit of 5 questions please. (Please post your email address with your questions so I have a way to contact you if you win)

I will be checking in at multiple times all week to compile and answer questions. Answers will be posted in a separate blog.

On Friday morning,  March 26th, two winners will be picked (via random name draw. If you asked 5 questions, your name will be entered in 5 times) and I will post the names of the winners.

It's that simple! So go ahead, ask away and good luck!

Nice idea Katie, I'm not in it to win it but would still like to have a go at asking the questions...
1. Name your FAVOURITE vampire
2. Is there a sequel to your novel?
3. Name your 5-10 favourite books of all time

That will do for now until I think of more!
