Thank you so much for the article! :D

Thank you, Groovy! I really want the readers to see all the genres we have to offer. If I have to use the giveaway and be sneaky then so be it lol.

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your article submissions. Please keep them coming!!

I posted two new ones on the blog today and will post two others on Friday. Go give them a read/comment. ^_^

Pff. Just a heads up. There's something off with my ipad. I can't see any images. I'll get back to adding the books when I get this fixed.

I have more than enough GB left so idk what's up.

But if you want to contribute already, there are blog articles posted that you can read and comment on. The authors - and myself lol - love that

Thank you, Christine. ;)
Wait for the official go ahead please

It's no biggie. Don't worry about it. I'll add the first two.

Thank you for helping. It's been fun so far. I think that if everyone contributes aand share the event, we might truly turn this into something special.

P.S.
We have a new article on the blog by one of my GR friends, Anna Adler. Check it out when you have a chance, everyone.

This made me realize something. I won't be individual banners now. People use so many different phones, tablets and PC's, that it will be hell to make banners that are visible and work well with a mobile responsive theme. So yeah, that's scrapped. (Thanks, Erica. Lol)

You're right, it's really small on Mobile!

Erica, you are one helpful lady.
Hmm, back to the drawing board.

YES! Glad you all approve.

Working on the banner for the main page now.
I'm not sure about the name. Maybe it has to be bigger but this is what I have. It won't change too much I think.

As always, thank you for the valuable feedback ladies.

Here's what I've come up with. It's sneaky, lol.
I added one category and made it link to the giveaway, but I put it at the bottom of the page.
That way the readers have to scroll through ALL the genres to reach it.
After clicking it, they'll land at the locked page.
Tweeting or facebooking will unlock the giveaway.
Check it out (please) and let me know what you think!
P.S. The links lead to my accounts so no need to click on them.

Hmm, interesting Nely. Thank you,

Something like this

But it might annoy people; they are already being supportive by being on the site.

I have an idea.

I will "hide" the giveaway rafflecopter that is visible on the site right now and put an image with a key. To "unlock" it and reach the giveaway, visitors have to tweet the link to the page once.

I could add a standard message like "Please support us, use one of the buttons below to unlock the content.." Or something like that.

Good idea or thumbs down?

Everyone's (Except S.K.) books have been added! Find your books, check your links, your author page etc and let me know if you find any mistakes. Please note that I've limited the amount of links to social media/GR/Amazon etc to a maximum of five links. Thank you. :)

S.K., the blurb you posted in this thread doesn't match the one on Amazon or the ine Goodreads. Just checking if this was deliberate or not before I add you. Thanks!

Erhm I want to see one more.
I'm thinking I might have trouble with such a long name for the promo material.
It could definitely be used for a slogan though.
P.S. Let's move this convo to the discussion thread.

Lol. We still need a name! You're creative; think of one.

So happy you guys like it!! Because that means that you will have no problem what so ever wth tweeting about it like crazy during the event. :D

BookGorilla's research says Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday are their busiest kindle paid days. But that's just one source.

Thank you, ladies, welcome. And we appreciate all the feedback and tips you can think of! :)
