Contest Ideas?

I have three or four advance review copies of The Ashford Affair that need good homes and a brand new Contest page to play with, but I’m fresh out of contest ideas.

Any suggestions?

    Hmmm…

    Ashford inspired desserts? Like decorated cupcakes, cakes or something?

    Some kind of craft based on Ashford? Something like that trading card that one person made for you on facebook? Maybe bookmarks? Or it could be more general… any kind of art/craft based on the Ashford cover.

    Obviously I’m in a creative sort of mood.

    If Miss Gwen had an alternate weapon of choice [if the horrible happened and her parasol wasn’t at hand] what would it be?

    I vote for a simple form to add our info to… not really feeling creative, so the easiest, the better. 🙂

    Ooh, how about commenter #4 wins?? 🙂

    Or I like the idea of a simple form; maybe with an Ashford question or two involved.

    It’s an ARC, though! I think the winner should have to work for it! 🙂

    I like the inspiration idea. How about a cocktail/mocktail? What to drink when finding out about past secrets? Or what would have been nice to imbibe on in Kenya?

    I LOVE Cassandra’s idea! And I also agree with Julie H. It’s much more fun when we’re forced to be creative.

    Yes, the cocktail/mocktail idea is a great one!

    I also like the cocktail/mocktail idea! And I kind of feel like Jessica deserves a shout out for trying to be sneaky 🙂

    I like the cocktail idea also!

    What would you prefer? Living in present day New York, WWI England or 1920s Kenya with one specific reason why.

    Going slightly with the food theme, for some reason I thought of the Klondike Bar gimmick, and playing on that theme, why not ask, “What would you do for an ARC of The Ashford Affair?”

    😀

    I’m liking the cocktail idea as well… 🙂

    How about similarly alliterative sequel titles with brief plot summaries and/or cover designs?

    I hope you pick #11, I already have my answer !

    We all dress up like we’re living in the Happy Valley?

    How about submitting a “What you would wear if you were living in THE ASHFORD AFFAIR?” People could submit images of dresses, fun jewelry, shoes and put a whole virtual outfit together!
