Over at the 2009 Debutantes, we’re giving away a bag of awesome. But hurry, this contest is a short one (ends tonight). And while you’re there, check out all the great 2009 debut middle grade and young adult authors.

Win Heartbreak River
Over on the Geek Girl’s Guide this week, we’re giving away an autographed copy of Heartbreak River by Tricia Mills. It’s her debut YA novel.
All you have to do is leave a comment on the blog entry. That’s it. It doesn’t get much easier than that.
Raiders of the Last ARC
This week over at the Geek Girl’s Guide, we’re giving away the very last ARC of The Geek Girl’s Guide to Cheerleading, signed by both of us–sure to be a collector’s item, an one-of-a-kind.
As part of the fun, we’re also launching our What Kind of Geek Are You quiz, based on the characters in the book.
Now, you don’t have to be a teen to:
- Visit the Geek Girl site
- Enter the contest
- Help us spread the word.
Remember, part of “young adult” is adult. It’s a short list of people we don’t want reading our book. Like Stalin. Yeah, him. I think it’s safe to say we don’t want Stalin reading our book.
And at this point in the game, we’re really only looking at awareness, rather than promotion or marketing. How do you know you want to read a book if you’ve never heard of it.
And hey, over here at Writing Wrongs, you get a sneak peek at the results, too. Below is my result. Big surprise, no?
Your result for The What Kind of Geek Are You Test…
You are: BETHANY, a WORD NERD

You know the difference between a period, a comma, a colon and a semi-colon. You are on a first name basis with all of the characters in Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter and probably the Twilight books too. No one doubts your supremacy in English class, but your ability to diagram relationships or punctuate a social life can be … well, meh. Get your nose out of those books occasionally. Real life can have happy endings too.
See the other results here.

Note of warning: The quiz host site may ask you for demographic information. You do NOT need to provide this to get your result or the code for posting the quiz on your own blog. In fact, I recommend you skip over it.
Now, what are you waiting for? Come on, you know you want to.
Mario Kart Love!
Over on The Geek Girl’s Guide, we have Sam Hart, songwriter and singer of the made-of-awesome Mario Kart Love Song.
Even more awesome? We’re giving away ten (yes, 10!) iTunes downloads of the song. But … you have to visit us over at Geek Girl for your chance to win.
Book Giveaway
Chris over at book-a-rama is holding a book giveaway contest.
Linda Wisdom author of 50 Ways to Hex Your Lover will be making a guest appearance here at book-a-rama on April 11, I’m going to give away my gently used (by me) copy of 50 Ways to Hex Your Lover to ONE lucky reader.
So, go on over and enter, by April 4th. Sure, it means my chances to win are slimmer. I’m sure you can deal with that guilt.
