DEFY THE DARK ARC Giveaway!

So, I've been away for quite awhile... And I'm sorry for that. Blogging hasn't been at the top of my list lately, BUT, that's changing today. Because while I was away, this happened:

And then last Friday, I went to the last stop on HarperTeen's Pitch Dark Days Tour featuring Aprilynne Pike, Amy Tintera, Kiera Cass, and Liz Norris. (And even had dinner with with the lovely ladies as well as fellow Michigan authors Aimée Carter, and Courtney Allison Moulton!)


From left: D.J. DeSmyter, Amy Tintera, Aprilynne Pike, DJ's friend Andrea, Me, Kiera Cass, Liz Norris

And at the signing, this happened:

Twice! So now, I'm giving away two DEFY THE DARK ARCs signed by Aprilynne Pike (and me). One here, and one on my brand new(ish) tumblr. All you have to do to win here is leave a comment on this post. For an extra entry, tweet or blog about the contest, and post the link to it here as a second comment.

To enter to win the second ARC, head on over to my tumblr - valeriekwrites.tumblr.com, and enter there. This contest is open internationally. Which means I will ship this ARC anywhere in the world!

This contest will be open until 11:59pm Pacific Time on Saturday, May 18th. I will randomly select a winner from the comments and announce them on Monday, May 20th.

I wish I could have been there to visit with you guys... I haven't been able to go to a signing in Lansing in forever! :(

I'd love to read and review DEFY THE DARK at The Hiding Spot, so throw my name in the hat as well. :)

Wow, what a line-up of authors...I also read some of the entries that Saundra Mitchell selected as part of the Defy the Dark competition. If those are any indication of what lies in these pages, I think we're all in for a great treat of a YA anthology.

Also, tweeted it!
