Sinful Sirens Giveaway Hop


In Greek mythology, the Sirens were dangerous creatures, portrayed as femme fatales who lured nearby sailors with their enchanting music and voices to shipwreck on the rocky coast of their island.

But that's not what I envision of when I think of Sirens. For me, writers are a more accurate depiction of Sirens. Why? Well, readers are lured in with blurbs, and then they're hooked by the stories. They don't shipwreck - thank goodness! - but they do fly and crash with the characters they read about. They laugh and cry with the characters. To me, that's more enchanting than anything in Greek mythology!

But enough about what I think! Here's what you've really come for - the prize!

What I'm offering today is a $25 gift card to ebay! I know, right?

Here's how to enter:

1. Follow my blog.
2. Leave a comment with your e-mail (very important - that's how you'll get your certificate) and your follower name, if it's different.

That's it! Quick and dirty. ::cough:: Er...simple. I mean quick and simple. :-)

  1. I think you might be right about authors being true sirens. One did that to me last night and I'm still reeling from it.

  9. I've always found the thought of Sirens intriguing. I don't see the point in killing the sailors, though. I'd do something else with them. I've never thought of authors as being Sirens...interesting.
