Anniversary Celebration. It’s prize time!

| Random

ten-years-ten-booksI’m ten years old! At least, Jay Bell the author is. Kind of. I actually started writing seriously in 2003 when I first moved to Germany. I think. The metadata of my earliest Word document claims I didn’t start until 2004, which might also be true. It’s confusing because there was a book and half, plus some short stories, which I never published and never will. It wasn’t until 2010 that my first official book, The Cat in the Cradle, was released. What I know for sure is that I’ve been writing for around a decade, and my tenth full-length novel is about to be released, so it seemed like an appropriate time to celebrate my 10th anniversary. What’s that mean exactly? Well, it’s good news for you because there are fabulous prizes to be won!

I don’t want this celebration to be about me strutting around like a rooster. I want to give thanks to you guys, and that’s why I’m offering ten special prize packs. Each one contains:

-Any book from my back catalog (excluding Thunder), in eBook or Paperback format
-A set of autographed art cards
-A $25 Amazon gift certificate
-A download code for any of my Audible audiobooks

Interested? If so, there are a number of ways to win. The first three prize packs have been given to a few of my favorite review sites. You’ll have to visit them, find my guest post there, and follow their rules to win. Below is a link to each site, accompanied by the date the giveaway begins.

Joyfully Jay May 13th
Boy Meets Boy Reviews May 19th
Sinfully Sexy Book Reviews May 20th

Even if you’re a millionaire and you don’t need or want my awesome prizes, you should still stop by those sites for exclusive excerpts and such. Or just to find more books to read, because each is an amazing resource. That leaves seven more prize packs. I’ll announce how you can win those here on May 20th. Want a hint? You’ll need to have your copy of Something Like Thunder handy! Preorder links are to the right. Thanks for making the last ten years some of the happiest of my life. I love you guys!
