Contest: win a signed copy of Valley of the Soul
Halloween will soon be here*, and with it the release of Tamara Siler Jones’ third forensic fantasy, Valley of the Soul. I’ll be interviewing Tam tomorrow and Wednesday, so stay tuned.
But you’re wondering how you can win a signed copy, right? Here are the rules:
1. Between now and Friday, post a true-life scary story on your blog. Doesn’t have to be supernatural, and I guess it doesn’t even have to be true (like I’m going to check your facts?) But, damn it, try to creep us out.
2. To qualify, you’ll need to link back to this contest post and link to Valley‘s page either at Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
3. I will post a link back to your site at the bottom of this post, and (of course) I will be hyping this contest all week.
4. In the comments, let me know when your post is up.
5. I’ll choose a winner by drawing and announce the name this Saturday.
Tam has a contest of her own, too!

*OMG. Check out Lyn Cash’s kitty litter cake. Oy.
Dangit!! Nothing spooky ever happens to me. [unless you count my recent bout with steroid-induced psychosis]
I got nuthin’ 🙁
Not necessarily spooky . . . scary. Near misses, tense moments, times when life suddenly seemed precious. It’s all fair game.
I can’t enter. I don’t have a blog. 🙁
Blogless folks: email me your stories and I’ll post them here, if you like. It may be a while, though, since I’m going out of town on Wednesday and coming back Friday evening.

You can’t go wrong with any of Tammy’s books. Go get one and read it.
