Sci Spanks 2014



SCI SPANKS JUNE 25TH - 29TH 2014!!!

I am very excited to be able to publicise this event. Sci Fi is very near to my heart, having dedicated much of my life to reading it and in the process collecting more Sci Fi books than I care to mention.

I am even more excited to be able to tell you that I have been persuaded to make a small contribution myself this year. I am giving you a tiny taster from my "work in progress" - my novel Heartsong. I wrote "a little extra" into one of the chapters, just for you! I do hope you will enjoy it.


FANFARE OF TRUMPETS!!!

Would you like free stories, fun, and a chance at over $1,000 in prizes? This summer, you can participate in a short story extravaganza! Award-winning authors of dystopian, paranormal, urban fantasy, speculative, and science fiction will showcase stories for your enjoyment. Chat with your favorite authors, meet new-to-you authors, find great new books, and meet new friends!

Many authors also will offer a contest on their individual blogs. Your comment on their blogs automatically enters you in both the main contest and the individual contests!

What’s the catch? Absolutely nothing! We love writing for you and want to thank you for your readership. Perhaps someone might get a spanking or two, but that’s a reward rather than a catch, right? ;)

Here are the rules:
 
Visit each blog between Wednesday, June 25 and Sunday, June 29 to read the posted stories and excerpts.
Leave a comment answering the story question on each blog. You will receive one entry per blog for the grand prize drawing. You will also be automatically entered in that author’s individual contest, if she has one.
 
If you have visited all of the blogs, visit Ana’s blog to sign up for FIVE bonus entries to the grand prize. 

Deadline is midnight EDT (UTC -4) on June 29!! 

If you successfully completed a previous challenge (Love Spanks 2014, Spank or Treat 2013, Spankee Doodle 2013, Love Spanks 2013, or Spank or Treat 2012), you may add “VIP” to your comments. You will earn THREE bonus entries toward the grand prize. (Yes, we will be doing this again. Yes, if you successfully complete the Love Spanks 2014 challenge you can become a VIP for our next activity!)
If you are an published writer/author, please add “W” to your comments. That way, your name will be entered in the special author prize drawings.
