A Super Special Awesome Contest! And a Goodbye,..

But not here!

Over on my website at www.michellezink.com.

If you like art, writing, or just free stuff like a specially wrapped and signed ARC, Hot Topic gift card, iTunes gift card, bookstore gift card, t-shirt, Victorian Gothic jewelry, loads of other stuff and, to top it all off, candyyyyyyy, you need to mosey on over and check it out.

And that, my sweets, concludes my blogging at this site.

Please please, PLEASE continue to follow my progress over at www.michellezink.com. I know it doesn't show up in Google Reader, but I have so enjoyed getting to know everyone and would hate to lose touch with any one of you.

It *is* a little sad. I've been blogging on Blogger since even before I signed with my agent, but from now on all my news and announcements and giveaways will be posted there.

And so....

*dabs eyes*

Goodbye Blogger.

But NOT bloggerS.

BEA and Contest Teaser

Second-to-last post here, guys!

Check out my website for BEA run-down, pics, and a teaser for my first big contest.

Only 60 more days until Prophecy is officially released...

Woot!

Let the Countdown Begin...

Pictures of the 2009 Teen Author Carnival are posted on my site at www.michellezink.com. I had SO much fun!

This is one of my LAST posts on this site. June bring my first BIG contest for a VERY big nice swag bag, but details will only be posted at www.michellezink.com, as will all posts after June 1st, so please bookmark the other site.

I'd hate to lose you along the way just when things are getting good.

My BEA Schedule...

Just sayin'.
:D

Music Monday

And I have an awesome one this week, too...
;)

Enjoy!

Trailer Stills!!!!

I know it's hard to get used to the new www.michellezink.com web address, so I'm going to help you guys out and tell you there are some AMAZING pictures there of the photos shoot Vania of Reverie Book Reviews conducted yesterday for the Prophecy of the Sisters book trailer she's filming.

They are worth the detour, I promise!
:D

A Chair, A Fireplace & A Tea Cozy

So now that we're getting closer to the release date for Prophecy, I'm going to start linking to reviews.

And yeah. I know my counter says 71 Days, but that's set to August 1st which is the OFFICIAL release date. The whole release date thing is a bit of an enigma, really. Here's how it works; the publisher sets an official release date, but the book actually starts shipping about a month before that date. Stores can put the book on the shelf at any point after receiving the shipment, unless it's a book like the Twilight series of one of the Harry Potter book, in which case the stores actually have to sign something saying they won't even open the box before XYZ date.

And Prophecy isn't one of those. Yet.

Heh. One can always hope...

So you should start seeing Prophecy on the shelves someitme in July, and since it's almost the end of May, I'm freaking out, just a little.

Eeeep!

I guess this means there has to start being an actual POINT to my posts instead of just random rambling? Uh-oh...

So before I post my link to this weeks's review by A Chair, A Fireplace & A Tea Cozy, I want to let you in on what you can expect over the next couple of weeks and months.

1. This is my last official post on this blog. Yep. I'm going to be redirecting traffic to my website at www.michellezink.com. There are a lot of boring reasons why this has to happen, but trust me; you'll like it! There will still be a blog, but there's also a lot more about the book, scheduled appearances, and writing (still working on that page!). I know change can be hard. But please help me out here and mosey on over to the new site, okay? And I made the web address easy for you to remember! :D

2. I'm going to host some AH-mazing contests! Seriously. I'm talking BIG swag bags with signed ARCs, books, Hot Topic and bookstore gift cards, jewelry, and CAAAAANDY! Yes. All in one ginormous swag bag a month during June, July, and August! The first one kicks off June 1st, so stay tuned...

And now.... I bring you Liz B. of A Chair. A Fireplace & A Tea Cozy. Liz was nice enough to read Prophecy and give it a generous and extremely thorough, well-written review. Take a look at Liz's blog for a peek!

Happy reading, peeps! See you on the other side (or, er, the other SITE!)...
