I have combined efforts with Muzna Shafi of Imagination Station and Scott at Indie Book Blogger for a great giveaway this upcoming month. But this time it isn't just for books. This June’s giveaway will include an assortment of contests that appeal to a variety of readers. For entry into many, simply liking an author’s website, book fan page, or following their blog will count as an entry. For others, you can enter the contests by purchasing ebooks. The prizes will include: two sets of shirts, the grand prize of a signed copy of all three of my books, and three individual prizes of one signed book each. I will include bookmarks and stickers in with the winners’ prize packages. In addition, some winners will receive ebooks of Invisible Dawn and A Life of Death. And, there will also be a grand prize of Madelin’s journal from Invisible Dawn, Book One of Altered Realities; a leatherbound, handmade journal with handmade paper containing a collection of her journal entries throughout the series and others that are completely separate. This is a one of a kind prize.
To enter, follow the Rafflecopter widget on the Summer Giveaway page in the top right and enter through as many of the options as you'd like to get the most entry points. Here's a breakdown of how you can enter and how many points they are worth:

And what many artists at heart will enjoy, are the contests for character art and cover art.
I am accepting submissions of character art including 3D graphics images and other varieties for A Life of Death and Invisible Dawn. The winners will be selected as part of my Artistic Team and their work will be used in future covers, advertisements, and/or memorabilia. The artist's name, site, and/or email will also be listed, but by submitting the artist agrees that the image is solely their creation and property and gives the author every right to use the image. The runner up in these contests may also be contacted for future creations. Their second place image will also be used for future advertisements and products. All character artwork should be at least 800x800 pixels and 300 dpi, but can be larger and do not need to be square.
Finally, the cover art contest will be separate. Artists will be competing to create the cover for Book Two of Altered Realities, entitled Salvation. For artistic fans of Invisible Dawn, this will be your chance to actually have a hand in the creation of the sequel and truly be responsible for the first impression readers get when they look at the book. 3D graphics images and all other artwork will be accepted for this front cover submission. The image will need to be 1800 pixels (wide) x 2700 pixels(vertical) and at least 300 dpi.
All art submission should be emailed to wakincade (at) gmail (dot) com.
All contests will end June 30. However, readers and visitors alike will get the chance to vote on their favorites of the submissions from July 1-7. Within the following week, the winners will be announced.
