Unless you’re head’s buried in the sand (or a book), then you probably know it’s Banned Book Week. And while I feel very strongly about this, I can’t really think of anything new to say on the subject. I did write about it here last Friday on The Debs site. And I’ve written about it here in the past. Also, Alexa wrote a beautiful piece about it here.
So, since I have nothing new to say, I decided to ask for your help in the form of a contest instead. I am going to start a new feature on Wednesdays on my blog which will include author interviews, book giveaways (when possible) and guest posts by authors. The thing is, I need something catchy to call it. Like Friday Five, but you know…for Wednesday and cooler!
The person who makes the suggestion I decide to use wins an ARC. Not of my book, unfortunately, don’t have those yet…but one from the HUGE pile I have from my friend who works at Penguin. And I just got a whole new box yesterday, so these are hot, hot, hot. I’ll work with the winner to find one they’d really like to have too. Just leave your idea in the comments section, or go to the contact page and drop me an email. I’ll run this contest until I get a suggestion I like or I just give up and call it something boring like Author Spotlight. While you’re all working hard on this, I think I’ll go read a banned book.
I am so useless at things like this

Hi 🙂
My suggestion is:
Writer Wednesday

I have three suggestions: (can you
enter 3?)
1). “Written” (a nod to Mark Bittman’s superb food blog “Bitten”)
2). “By Wrote”
3). “Fracture the syntax”
I replied to you on Twitter, but I shall put my reply here as well. Wild Card Wednesdays? I’ll be thinking of others, too.
