Chaos is the New Normal and Book Release Prize Ideas?

Chaos is the new normal at my house. We're not talking usual levels of chaos. We're talking over-the-top, total chaos. But chaos is a good thing, for a while. It means changes are happening, big ones.

One I'm tickled pink over is the release of the next book in my Altairan Empire series - Priestess of the Eggstone. It's happening Friday. You can be part of the fun. Just stop by here Friday afternoon between 3-8 pm MST for a chance to win some fun prizes. If you're in a different time zone and it's the middle of the night, stop by earlier. I'll have a general post up Thursday and if you comment, I'll enter you to win some of the goodies.

I need your help. I need suggestions of party prizes you'd like to win. Keep in mind I'm spending all my extra cash on kitchen remodeling, but I can find a few bucks to sponsor this party. What prizes would you like to win? Free books are a no brainer. I'll be giving away some ebooks of Nexus Point, book 1 in the series, and at least one paperback copy of Priestess of the Eggstone. What else? Gift certificates? Nifty space toys? Other SF books? An old avocado green kitchen sink? Crocheted Cthulhu cat toys with jingle bells inside? Obsidian copies of the Eggstone? Please post comments and let me know. Everyone who does will be entered in the grand prize drawing Friday night. Make sure you leave me a valid email address so I can get hold of you.

Now for fun, here's before pics of my kitchen and its current state:

  1. You could also put up a two pack (either eBooks or print) of Nexus and Eggstone.

  2. A two-pack would have to be print. I don't have control over the ebook version of Eggstone like I do with Nexus Point.

    Thanks for the idea. I've already got Eggstones and skystones to give away.

  3. I'm all for the Cthulhu cat toy. Or maybe a Cthulhu on a head band for a baby? I think I could persuade my little Hoo to put it on long enough for photos.

    Another thought for local prizes (which I wouldn't be able to get): Would your day job throw in something? If not as an evening participant, maybe as a cameo roll as a prisoner or a visiting alien dignitary or such.

    If your kitchen wasn't torn up I'd also consider an invitation to diner a prize. =)

    Good luck!

  4. I'll have to throw in some crocheted prizes, too. Just for the hey of it. Thanks, Hannah!
