Let's Get This Party STARTED!


 
Hello there everyone! This is Leslie Soule, author of the fantasy YA (Young Adult) novel, Fallenwood. I’m honored to be kicking off Decadent Publishing’s Worldwide YA Blog Stomp.

  At each blog on the tour, a lucky commenter will be entered to win a free ebook copy of one of Decadent’s fantastic YA titles.

  Each comment throughout the month counts as an entry for the Grand Prizes, so make sure to stop by as many of the blogs as possible and comment, in order to get the maximum number of entries for the Grand Prizes.

  Decadent is offering up some excellent prizes for the YA Blog Stomp. 1st prize is a Kindle, pre-loaded with Decadent’s YA titles. 2nd prize is a whole year’s worth of Decadent ebooks, one per month for 12 months, and you get to choose which books you get. This could save you a lot of money if you’re a voracious reader, like I am.

  For example, if you got 12 copies of Fallenwood (wishful thinking on my part, tee hee hee) at $4.99 per ebook, that would ordinarily cost $59.88!

  3rd prize is a half-year’s supply of ebooks, one per month for six months – and you get to choose the titles!

  In other news, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 is coming out in theaters on July 15th – July 14th if you’re going to the midnight showing like my friends and I are. Is anyone else going? If so, are you dressing up like anyone from the series?


Leave a comment! You’ll be entered to win a copy of my novel Fallenwood and you’ll be entered into the contest for the Grand Prizes!
  And remember, the next stop on the blog tour is on July 5th – it’s the blog of Julie Particka, author of Pretty Souls. Her blog can be found at http://www.julieparticka.com/blog

  Happy YA Blog Stomping!!!

I do love the cover for Fallenwood, Leslie. I hope the blogtour flies!!
As for Harry Potter - well the boy who plays Neville - used to go to school a few hundred yards away from where I live. He was on TV the other night and I could NOT believe how much he'd changed. Now slim and good looking!!!!!!

The YA blog stomp is such a fabulous idea!

I look forward to seeing Harry Potter, but I won't be at the midnight showing. I don't think they do that here anyway. Too small of a city. Have fun though!

Love this idea! Such a fun tour of blogs.

And heck yeah I'm going, but on Sunday night. My daughter is going to be in camp when it comes out, and we always go see them together. Sigh.

Not dressing up, but will wear one of my knit items from my Harry Potter yarns I make. :D

I am so excited this blog stomp thing sounds fun! I love Harry Potter I can't go not enough money but I am glad that both halves are out now I have been waiting to watch the first till the second one came out.

Katie Harper said...

Love the blog stomp!! And yes, I will be waiting in line for Harry with my six year old daughter. I took her to the midnight show of part one and she was remarkably well behaved. Can't wait to visit all the different blogs!

Jennie said...

Great Blog Stomp! I will be going to see Harry Potter, but sadly I will not be able to go the premiere night. I did go last year and it was wonderful. But this year I'll be on vacation so no pre-ordering tickets for me. I wish I could dress up though.

Deena said...

The family's going to see harry at Midnight too. Can't wait! I am so intrigued by the world of Fallenwood, Leslie! Enjoy the STOMP! :D
Hugs,
Deena

A fun tour for sure. Sadly have not been keeping up with Harry Potter, and enjoy the movies, time and money constraints.

The YA Blog Stomp is a great idea, Leslie! Congrats on the success of Fallenwood, too!

I haven't seen HP, but I have to admit they seem fascinating. Have fun!

Nice idea!
I just found out about this today :D

Anne said...

Thanks for participating, Leslie. You are a new to me author.

My sister is going, but not dressing up. I will undoubtedly go in a couple of weeks when the crowds die down. I've heard there's lots of action in this one so it should be seen on the big screen. I've seen a couple in the theater, the rest at home.

I think this is a great contest! And we get a chance to see so many different blogs!

Shannon Leigh said...

I've seen Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows part 2 and I loved it! I'm sad the series is over though. Alas, guest it can't go on forever. Kinda like Buffy and Angel. Ah geez, now I'm depressed. ;)

Hi, I went and saw Harry Potter but we didn't dress up. Fallenwood looks good.
