YA Scavenger Hunt

Welcome to YA Scavenger Hunt! This bi-annual event was first organized by author Colleen Houck as a way to give readers a chance to gain access to exclusive bonus material from their favorite authors…and a chance to win some awesome prizes! At this hunt, you not only get access to exclusive content from each author, you also get a clue for the hunt. Add up the clues, and you can enter for our prize–one lucky winner will receive one signed book from each author on the hunt in my team! But play fast: this contest (and all the exclusive bonus material) will only be online for 72 hours!
Go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page to find out all about the hunt. There are SIX contests going on simultaneously, and you can enter one or all! I am a part of the BLUE TEAM (the most awesomely awesome team there is)–but there is also a red team, a gold team, an orange team, a red team, and an indie team for a chance to win a whole different set of signed books!
If you’d like to find out more about the hunt, see links to all the authors participating, and see the full list of prizes up for grabs, go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page.

Today I am hosting Amanda Sun, a fellow HQN Teen Author who I don’t think is afraid of the number 13

Amanda Sun is the author of The Paper Gods, a YA Fantasy series set in Japan and published by Harlequin Teen. The first book, INK, is an Aurora Award nominee, an Indie Kids’ Next List Pick, and a Junior Library Guild selection. The second book, RAIN, is also Junior Library Guild pick. The series concludes with STORM in July 2015. Sun is also an avid cosplayer and nerdy knitter. Find her on Twitter at @Amanda_Sun or at AmandaSunBooks.com.
I’ve got some awesome exclusive content for you, which is a bonus scene of Katie and Tomo celebrating the Japanese holiday Setsubun! AH! I am so excited about this!
YAY!
Don’t forget to enter the contest for a chance to win a ton of signed books by me and more! To enter, you need to know that my favorite number is (it’s hidden in this post). Add up all the favorite numbers of the authors on the blue team and you’ll have all the secret code to enter for the grand prize!
