It’s the new year and this is a new opportunity for us to get to know each other better. My name is Ty Hutchinson and I’m the author of the books you see listed along the side of this blog. They’re thrillers packed with plenty of action and adventure. Take a peek. And while you’re here, check out the huge blog hop I’m participating in. Plenty of great books and literary schwag.
This is the first year that the IWU authors have put together a New Year’s Blog Hop. If you haven’t participated in a blog hop, fear not, it’s easy. A blog hop is a great way to meet a lot authors in a short amount of time. It’s also a great way to win stuff for yourself during a time when you’re busy giving.
Just visit our official blog to see the list of over 50 participating authors. Hop from blog to blog to check out their books, poke them in the eye or enter to win a prize. I think all the authors are offering some sort of giveaway. That’s 50 chances to win cool stuff. Not only that, there are grand prizes. Details on how to win those prizes are on the front page of our NYBH site.
I’ve got some cool stuff I’m giving away to visitors of my blog.
• My Grand Prize •
Abby Kane, the tough FBI agent in Corktown, loves living in San Francisco. So I’m giving away a gift basket full of her favorite treats.
• First Runner-Up Prize •
One autographed paperback copy of Corktown, which was named a top pick by Night Owl Reviews.
• How To Enter •
Follow my blog and like my Facebook page. Be sure to let me know in the comment section that you did this. You get one entry for each one you do. If you already follow me or liked my page, then let me know in the comments and you’ll automatically get the entries.
• Extra Entries •
To receive fifteen extra entries, buy an ebook copy of Corktown and email me the nickname that Abby and her partner give their rental car. If you already own the book, then email me the name.
I will notify the winners shortly after the last day of the blog hop. If the winner doesn’t respond with in 48 hours, I’ll draw another winner. I’ll keep doing this until someone answers, but man would that be embarrassing.
Have fun and happy new year.
