Hope everyone had a good weekend! My husband and I were still recovering from a cold and getting rained in, so we took it pretty easy.

Here are the winners of Days 11, 12 and 13:

  • Winner of Anyone But You by Lara Zeises: Olivia (paradoxrevealed)
  • Winner of A School for Sorcery by E. Rose Sabin: Tami (blackroze)
  • Winner of Supernatural Rubber Chicken: Poultry in Motion by Debra Garfinkle: Elizabeth Mays (doot65)

I thought you guys might also like to see what the Grand Prize looks like (only 4 more days!!!) :-) And there’s no time like the present to enter the Grand Prize Contest!

It’s kinda hard to see what the tote bag looks like under all that stuff, but it’s cool, I promise you. And isn’t the t-shirt cute?? If you click on the picture to get the larger view, you can see it even better. (leave me a comment and tell me whatcha think of it…I’m thinking of having some more made up and maybe giving prizes every now and then or using them at school events as special prizes…whaddaya think?) Good luck to everyone in the contest!

Update: Grrrr, probably would make sense to include a link again to the main contest post so’s you could enter in any of the remaining daily contests, eh? Seeing as how each entry gets you an entry into the Grand Prize Contest too…

Book Launch Party: Ze Grand Prize Contest!!

Posted on September 11, 2008

Okay, so the moment you’ve all been waiting for…the Grand Poo-Bah of Prize Packs (click here to see what’s in the prize pack) is finally up for grabs! I’ve got a really fun contest for you…help me name the new mean girl in the sequel to Sucks to Be Me!

She’s blonde and Southern, with the requisite drawl. She’s pretty and she *definitely* thinks she’s all that. She doesn’t like that Mina has moved to town and she definitely doesn’t want to share any spotlight (or the attention of any hot guys) with her. She’s got that way of digging at you in the Southern-style where it might sound at first like a compliment but then you realize it really isn’t. So, what’s her name? You tell me!

E-mail your entry to me at kim @ kimberlypauley.com (remove the spaces) and tell me a) what’s this girl’s name and b) why that particular name? You can even enter more than once if you’ve got more than one good “mean girl” name that you think will fit. Excellent creativity will also earn you extra points towards the grand prize contest (if I have to call my husband over to say “Hey, honey, you’ve got to see this!” then you definitely get extra points). Please use the subject line “Mina’s New Nemesis.”

And don’t forget that you can still earn extra entries into the Grand Prize Contest! All entries, extra or otherwise, are due by September 21st. Good luck everyone!

And thank you to everyone who has participated (the awesome authors, the wonderful readers, and passersby) in the Sucks to Be Me Online Book Launch Party. You guys rock! (You definitely don’t suck!)
