Two writing invitations: a Happy Potter book review and 7 things about you
New here? Then you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
I’m leaving for Chicago Thursday morning for BlogHer, a women’s blogging conference. I’ve been busy trying to get my writing work done before I leave. I write regularly on four blogs (including this one), semi-regularly on a couple of more, and have an e-newsletter and website update due for a client.
So much for having time to read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, darn it! My husband is out of town, so I’ve been reading it at night after the kids are asleep when I’m too pooped to write. I’ll be taking it on the plane, too.
You’ve probably finished it by now, so how about writing a Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows review? I know we already had a review writing invitation. But Shelfari, a social media site for book lovers, is having a “Seven Days of Harry Potter Seven” contest where you can win a variety of Potter-themed prizes, including a J.K. Rowling signed, first-edition copy of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
Any Shelfari user who reads Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows within seven days of its release is eligible to win the grand prize. To be entered into the contest, you need to join Shelfari, add the latest Harry Potter book to your Shelfari bookshelf, and contribute a review.
I haven’t joined Shelfari yet, but it’s on my to do list as a way to network with people who love to read.
| Writing Invitation One: Write a Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Join Shelfari. Get your page set up. Put Deathly Hallows on your bookshelf. Submit your review. Keep your fingers crossed. Parents: this is something you should do with your child. You must watch what your child does online, especially at social networking sites. Shelfari doesn’t have an age restriction and it does connect to Facebook. Sign up as a family or make it a mother/father-daughter or mother/father-son project to do with your child. Writing Invitation Two: Write 7 Things About You that No One Knows About Since you’re probably not writing on a blog, pass the meme on to your family members and friends via email. Include everyone’s list in a final email. It’s a good way to keep in touch with friends and family you haven’t seen in awhile. Plus, you’ll have a good time discovering new things about each other. |
I love Shelfari! Partly because I am a bookworm, partly because I work there :).
I just wanted to let you know about the Shelfari blog widget. You can showoff your bookshelf on your blog! its really easy.
