A Merry Giftcard Giveaway

Yes, folks, it's time to Tech the Halls with an Amazon or Barnes and Noble $20 eBook gift card. Technology has breathed new life into publishing with its eReaders and eBooks. In doing so, it's opened wide the doors of opportunity for so many authors, changing the landscape of reading and writing at the same time.

'Tis the Season for giving back. So, I'd like to show my support for the technology that inspired me to publish my novel. In return, I'd like to bring more eBooks into the home of one lucky person.

Entering is easy, here's how ...

1.  Leave a comment here.

2.  Earn an extra chance to win by Following this blog.

3.  Add another chance by Following me on Twitter @JoanneDeMaio.

4.  Add one last chance by Tweeting this blog post.

Be sure to come back here and leave a separate blog comment for each Follow or Tweet.

As easy as that, you can be book shopping and reading from the comfort of your own home.  If you don't have an eReader, you can always download the free Kindle Reading App on your computer or cell phone.  Winner will win a $20 eBook Gift Card for either the Amazon Kindle or Barnes and Noble Nook, winner's choice.

Contest runs through Wednesday.  Good luck!

And the winner is ...













Congrats, J.A. Bennett!  I'll be sending you an email shortly :)
