What State does the Author Live in?
1. Dani Harper is offering a signed copy of Changeling Dream book #2 in her shifter series. How ironic she would write such HOT romances in such a cold place ;) What State does Dani live in? It is also called "The Last Frontier" State.
2. Michele Hauf is offering a singed copy of Forever Vampire from her Beautiful World Series. I don't know how she manages to keep dry in a State with 10,000 lakes!!! What State does Michele live in? It is called "The North Star" State.
3. Patricia A. Rasey is offering a copy of her Serial Killer thriller novella Fear The Dark. OH, boy, when Patricia writes her historical and romantic thrillers, do you think she eats those wonderful little chocolate covered peanut butter balls, what are they called again? ;) What State does Patricia live in? It is called "The Buckeye State".
4. Joss Ware are you from?( okay, it was funnier in my head). Joss is offering up a signed copy of Embrace The Night Eternal book #2 in her Envy series. I am also throwing in the first book Beyond The Night. Do you think Joss listens to Kiss' Detroit Rock City while writing her post-apocalyptic romance series? What State does Joss live in? It is called "The Great Lakes" State.
5. Laura Bickle is offering a signed copy of Sparks Book #2 in her Anya Kalinczyk Series. When Laura is writing her Urban Fantasy do you think she also eats those chocolate covered peanut butter balls? Maybe she shares them with her alter ego Alayna Williams. What State does Laura live in? It is called "The Buckeye State"
6. Jennifer Estep is offering a signed copy of Tangled book #4 in her Elemental Assassin Series. Jennifer is a very private person and when writing her adult Urban Fantasy (Elemental Assassin series), YA Urban Fantasy (Mythos Academy series) or her Paranormal Romance (Bigtime series) she flees to an imaginary place. Where do you think she goes? Give me your best guess and be creative, no answer is wrong here.

****BLOG SHOUT OUT****
Bitten By Paranormal Romance
Bitten By Paranormal Romance
My August Blog Shout Out goes to Bitten By Paranormal Romance which is run by Laurie. I love this blog and visit it everyday. This group of reviewers crank out soooo many wonderful reviews. I also like their rating system. They rate books with HOWLS and give a sexual rating (they like hot smexy books). The graphics and fonts on the site are sexy and fun. They hold tons of contests and interviews too. Laurie manages all this while taking care of her elderly father, husband, multiple pets and dealing with her own chronic health problems. I just want to say Laurie, your site ROCKS! and thanks for keeping me and everyone else informed :)
Laurie is offering a swagpack + a copy of Blood On Silk! as a second place prize. Everyone who gets the "Author's State" game right will be entered (double entry for being a follower!)
