Name the book!
I think by now everyone has heard that I had plans to make The Contagium Trilogy into a series. And just for the record-I am! I'm very excited about this; I'm not ready to be done writing about Hayden and Orissa's adventures! I've written about half of it and have the first 1/4th proof read and beta read by a few awesome betas. I will be working on writing tomorrow and spending all of Saturday doing edits so I can try and get the ball really rolling on this one. I'm seeing if sending the book out to the betas in 1/4ths will make things easier for me. Sometimes I feel that editing takes longer than actually writing the book.
The last book in the series is going to be called The Truth is Contagious because it is about how the virus started and the characters finally learning the truth behind it all. So, I do not have a name for the third book. So, that's where you guys come in! :) I love interacting with fans and readers, so I thought asking you all to help name the book would be fun!
I don't have a blurb for this book yet (I suck at those!) so I'll sum it up quickly. Basically, this book showcases the best and worst of humanity and that terrible times bring out qualities in people-even those once considered friends- that will shock and surprise you. It's about the drastic things people will do to survive at the expense of others and how hard it is to not get caught up in the harrowing world and lose yourself. And of course there are tons of zombies!
The winner will be named in the book's acknowledgments and will get an autographed print copy at least one week before the book is released, a free digital copy, and an autographed bookmark.
RULES: -The title has to contain the word "Contagious" in it somewhere.
-The naming contest will stay open for the rest of January. I will pick my favorites and post them, allowing you guys to make the final vote on which title you like best.
I'd like to take a minute to thank you guys-the readers- for your enthusiasm about the book. And thank you for being so patient while I was in school. I had no idea it would be so difficult to write and be in school. Trust me, I am working as hard and fast as I can! :)
*It will be so much easier for me to keep track of the titles if they are posted in the comments under this post. I know a lot of people like to comment on FB-and that's ok too-but it's just easier to refer back to a post than sort through my FB statuses*
