Trick-or-Treating for Books!
Have you ever wanted to go trick-or-treating for books instead of candy?
Well, now you can!
A couple weeks ago my friend, Patricia Lynne had a brainstorm and devised a clever way for authors to give out books and book-related goodies on Halloween.
Last I checked, 20 authors had signed up for her Trick-or-Treat Book Blog Hop, and I bet more will be added as the big day approaches.
That’s a whole lot of sugar-free fun!
(Oh, and as you may have guessed, it was Patty’s blog hop that inspired my own Paranormal Texas Book Release Trick-or-Treat Giveaway. Speaking of, you can *still* enter daily to win goodies there through Halloween. What can I say? I love giving out prizes!)
How Authors Can Play Along:
If you are an author and would like to give a book or book-related goodie away for Halloween,
1. Add your name to the list of participating authors over at Patricia Lynne’s blog. Here’s the link: Trick-or-Treat Book Blog Hop
2. Write a post on Halloween (or a day or two before, depending on your schedule) telling trick-or-treaters about your book.
3. Offer your blog visitors a treat! This treat can be as simple as giving each person who comments “trick-or-treat” a free ebook. You could also run a contest, with each “trick-or-treat” being an entry. Or… you could do something else entirely! Halloween is like that, right? It’s not like every house on the street gives out the same candy. So it’s up to you, fellow authors. This is a chance to gain new readers. Make it fun!
How Readers Can Play Along:
On Halloween, drop by Patricia Lynne’s Blog and start trick-or-treating your way through the tasty author blogs taking part in this trick-or-treat blog hop.
And, hey readers, please give a little candy back to the authors by posting reviews of their books on Amazon and Goodreads and so forth once you’ve read and enjoyed their books.
