Day Dreamer is also hosting a preliminary giveaway with some awesome prizes:


Even though my newest novel is still in the beginning stages, I'd like to focus my part of this contest on promoting it. "Aquatara: The Water Spirit" is about a young girl who thinks she's a mermaid, but finds out she's something more--a water spirit--and her existence has been foretold for centuries. Help me celebrate the birth of this book by having a little fun with me.


And what do you win, you may ask? Everything you need for a trip to the beach, that's what. A beach bag, cute hat, sun glasses, beach towel, lip balm, and, just in case you can't get to the beach, a CD of soothing ocean sounds. OR, you can choose a gift card from Amazon.com for $20.00.

  3. From one Idaho girl to another, I love your beach giveaway package. lol It gives me hope that spring/summer will eventually come. :) As for the water spirit power, I'd say the power to change to something that can go on land for a while - who wants to be soggy and wet all the time.

    Please enter me in the Scrapbox contest, too! I love the EZ View desk and this office box would have to be a close second, I hadn't seen it before. I became a fan of Scrapbox on facebook and became a follower of Rachelle. I'm a follower of your blog, too.

  9. my favorite from the website is the white beadboard workbox

    A water spirit must be telepathic and she should be able to form legs on land and with the wave of her hand sprinkle life giving water and bring dead objects to life.

  10. When I think Water spirit I think Poseidon, when in an ill mood think unruly springs and earthquakes, ship wrecks, and drownings. But also the dew and the rainbows things that require water would be with in their realm to control.

    So I think I am liking the Workbox with Black bead board but I change my mind every time I look at a new product. I really like the office box as well.

    I became a facebook fan of The Original Scrapbook.

  12. The powers a water spirit could have is the power to communicate with all water living creatures.

    Or--

    manipulating any water weather

    Or--

    turning water into ice crystals...

    I'll be thinking of other powers and text them to you!!

  36. Hey missy,

    I've done all on the your list to enter the contest. I don't Twitter so that's the only thing I didn't do.

    I went to The Original Scrapbook and left my comment of my fav item via their email addie.

    I'm already follower of your blog.

    I became a facebook fan of The Original Scrapbook. And I wrote/linked on facebook under Autumn Ables Weber on 3/6/10.
    Sorry, I don't know how to get the exact link but you can look it up.

    I follow Rachelle via Google.

    I blogged about it {with ALL 4 links and photos} AND entered the button here: http://queenofchaosandjoy.blogspot.com/2010/03/cool-contest.html

    As for what I think a Water Spirit's magical power should be:

    I think a cool power would be able to cause the water to be freezing cold, even become ice, or boiling hot in any specific spot in the ocean. I also think causing whirlpools would be cool too.

    Thanks! And your newest book sounds really neat.

    I think that the magical power a water spirit should have, is to communicate through thought, since it might be hard to talk, and hear, underwater :)
