Welcome to the Pre-Order Gift and Giveaway for IVORY AND BONE! Thank you for coming to this page!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First... a Sneak Peek into IVORY AND BONE!
Before I tell you about the Pre-Order Gift and Giveaway, I want to introduce a special Sneak Peek I'm offering, so I can share some of IVORY AND BONE with you all! As pre-orders come in, I will post a peek into the book here on my website. (You can read the prologue right now to get you started!) As pre-orders increase, I will continue to post more content from the beginning of the book. (***UPDATE May 12: You can now read the prologue, Chapter One, AND Chapter Two here!) Depending on how pre-orders progress, I may share a pivotal scene that occurs later in the book! All to THANK YOU for your support of IVORY AND BONE!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now... onto the Gift and Giveaway!
Everyone who pre-orders the book before June 7, 2016 and submits a valid proof of purchase will receive the Pre-Order Gift as a THANK YOU from me! (You will also receive my appreciation and affection!!!) This gift is for ALL PRE-ORDERS--print and e-book--international included!
In addition to the Pre-Order Gift, everyone who pre-orders will be entered to win a PRIZE!!! There will be THREE levels of prizes:
- FIVE Second-Place Prizes,
- FIVE First-Place Prizes, and
- ONE GRAND PRIZE!!!
First, the PRE-ORDER GIFT! Submit a screenshot or scan of your valid proof of purchase of IVORY AND BONE to IvoryAndBonePreorders@gmail.com (be sure to include your name and address!) and you will receive ALL of the following:
- AN EXCLUSIVE, PRE-ORDER ONLY BOOKMARK! I had this bookmark made for pre-orders only, and I love how they came out! (That beautiful lettering comes from the spine of the book!) Just to make it a little more personal, I'm adding a black ribbon to each one by hand. I really want this bookmark to be special!
Exclusive Pre-order Bookmark! This is the printer's file--it shows the color and detail better than the photo below.
This is a photo of the pre-order bookmark, showing the ribbon! (The color is more accurate in the picture on top.)
In addition to the special pre-order bookmark, ALL PRE-ORDERS will receive:
- A SECOND BOOKMARK, with the gorgeous cover image on the front!
- A SIGNED BOOKPLATE! You can attach the bookplate inside your pre-ordered copy of IVORY AND BONE!
- TWO IVORY AND BONE STICKERS! These are round and 1.5" (38mm) in diameter.
- ONE IVORY AND BONE POSTCARD! The front shows the book cover (without the tagline) and the back contains a summary of the book, (plus room to write a few lines if you choose to mail it. Of course, you could also display it!)
The Pre-order Swag Gift! Isn't it pretty?
ALL THE ABOVE--the pre-order bookmark, the second bookmark, the signed bookplate, the two stickers, and the postcard--will be sent to everyone who pre-orders! I can't wait to start sending these gifts around the world!
