Ladies & Gents, it's October. My favourite month of the year. You know what October means: NATIONAL HALLOWEEN AWARENESS MONTH!
Fabulous New York things to do this month include:
1.
The Great Pumpkin Blaze2.
Boo at the Zoo3. Embrace your inner Slytherin. (Shouldn't we all?)
To share in the joy of this month, I'm giving you, dear readers, prezzies. Each week of October I'm hosting a different giveaway, either here on the blog, on Twitter or on Facebook; I'm rotating, so be sure you're following each site.
First off? My partner in crime, the Diana to my Anne of
Green Gables, the wondrously talented author, artist, Jill of all trades and princess,
Alethea Kontis is featured in a just-released anthology that is very appropriate fare for Halloween Awareness Month:
DEMONS: Encounters with the Devil and his Minions, Fallen angels and the possessed - featuring Neil Gaiman, Kim Harrison, Maggie Stiefvater, William Peter Blatty and the aforementioned Ms. Kontis and many more!
And I'm giving away a copy! Signed, no less! Keep reading for details:
Also,
it's only appropriate that I mention Alethea is also the author of the popular
AlphaOops H IS FOR HALLOWEEN - which is something everyone should have for their little ones this season.
And she is ALSO the author of forthcoming YA Fairy Tale magic twisted and made new as only she can,
ENCHANTED. (
Yes, you can pre-order it!) No, this is not the last time you'll see us talking about one another's books. She's the "Once Upon a Time" and I'm the "It Was a Dark and Stormy Night". Together, we're all your favourite kinds of stories in one.
And so, to kick off HALLOWEEN AWARENESS MONTH I've a copy of the
DEMONS anthology, SIGNED BY THE AUTHORESS herself, to give away right here right now.
