This is to let you know that all six copies of The Charmed Return – signed by me – have now been won! I was expecting to keep the competition up for longer than this, but obviously many of you check out my website on a regular basis – so thanks for that! Everyone who is a winner has been told, so if you have won a book, you will know about it – if not, better luck next time!
Anyway – as I said, there are now no more Charmed Returns for prizes – BUT – I have just been told there are 6 hardback copies of The Enchanted Quest on their way to me. Maybe I should set up another competition – what do you think? With signed Enchanted Quests as a prize?
But let’s shake it up a little – I’d like you to suggest the kind of competition I should set up – what should people have to do to win? The person who comes up first with the competition idea I like best will get one of the signed books.
So – over to you!
I think you should have a competition for the book where people should have to create a creative “project”. For example a short story or a picture to show how much they love the Faerie Path series.
Mr. Jones, if there is a seventh book, what would be the story plot or the name of the book?
AFJ. Faith – so far there has been no sign from the Publishers that they want a 7th book – but your question has given me an idea. What if I made the competition to win the signed Enchanted Quest books one where people had to come up with a title for a seventh book? Does anyone like that idea, or is it not complicated or elaborate enough?
thats a really cool idea Mr.jones.I would love it if you made a seventh book.Im also waiting for the next warrior princess/destinys path book.I read the chapter preveiws and cant wait to read it.
I think it’s a great idea. My only problem trying to come up with a name is that we don’t know exactly what the storyline would be. I know you have a idea as I believe you have stated in another blog post as to what it would be if it were signed on for a 7th book. Anyways the first thing that came to mind was something like “***********” or “**************” Depending on how the story would end up maybe “***********” I’ll have to ponder on this more.
On another note I’m getting ready to send the entire series to a book blog site that has a lot of followers. Would be great to get a review on the series and hope for more sales so the 7th book gets published. 🙂
mabey we could wright to you about what we want the next book to be about(if you make another one)and the person with the best story wins
AFJ. Shellee – thanks for your comment – I hope you don’t mind that I’ve edited out your actual book title suggestions – I’m afraid they may give away some of what happens at the end of The Charmed Return – and there are plenty of people out there who won’t have read it yet. Great about the blog site! The more this happens the better.
AFJ. Abby – that’s not a bad idea at all! Please everyone – don’t send in your ideas yet – I want to think about this for a while. If there is not going to be another full published book, I’m considering other options – but it will be a while before I make any decisions – and when I do you people will be the first to know.
Thanks for the info, and that is a great idea!
Allan. I am so sorry. It didn’t even cross my mind. I’m glad you edited it. Yes, the more we can get it out there the better. I’m trying everything I can and hopefully all your fans will try to do what they can.
Well I’m off to purchase the Warrior Princess series. Can’t wait to get started reading them! 🙂
AFJ. Thanks for understanding, Shellee – I’m always happy to chat with readers about any aspects of the stories in the books already published – but if they want to talk about “spoilers” I like them to mail me via the Contact page.
OIf you have any trouble locating Warrior Princess books, please let me know.
I have found the first 3 through iBooks on my iPad. I’m going to mail you through the contact page though as I’m a little confused. The entire Faerie Path series is also on iBooks, so I’m going to buy them on there as well to read again. 🙂
Maybe somewhere where you write a little something on why you love the series so much. I do like the title idea too, same with doing something creative like fan art or something.
A contest could include fans drawing one of the favorite charectors from the book or they could draw up their own cover for one of the books i think it would be really creative and fun or one last idea is a fan could creat a costume for one of the charectors from teh book and then send you pictures of them in their charector costume or i am sorry this is my last idea fans could write a short story for their favorite of the 7 princesses it would be like their own minni adventure let me know waht you think<3
Sorry to bother you guys with a few more of my ideas for the contest
one of my ideas is that fans could write an alternate ending are mabey a begening to enchanted quest or one of the other 6 books in the faerie path series.Fans could also draw a picture of one of their favorite charectors from the book.Another idea for the contest is to have fans send you in short videos baceed on one of the scenes from the books they could make the movies with their friends and then send them to you.Yet another contest idea would be for fans to desgin a cover for the seventh book or they could draw up and desgin a cover for one of the 6 books in the series that would be lots of fun.Or what if you picked out a couple of sentences or a para graph from the books and fans had to nmae what book the excerpts came from.Another idea is fans could desgin a modern room for one of the princesses.Or how about a look a like cantes were pepole take pictures of their friends or other how remind them of one of the princesses .And one last idea for the contest is fans could make up what they think the 8th princess would be like how she looks acts dresses and her name the princess would have to fit into the faerie realm and with the other faerie princesses.Thanks for reading through my long list of random contest ides i hope you like them.I love your faerie path books i think you are such a talented writer i hope you are able to write an publish a seventh book i would definaly read it.
were did my first set of ideas go they disapeared when i put up my second lisy?
AFJ. Meredith – don’t worry – I’m pretty sure all your ideas survived! Every time anyone comments on a blog on this site, the comment is forwarded to me to be moderated – so the first one didn’t disappear at all.
AFJ. By the way – a great selection of ideas, Meredith!
We can give you a reason why love is forever in Faerie or we can figure out what ***** had to **** to ******** back to Faerie.
AFJ. T.K.B. – thanks for your thoughts on this – I hope you don’t mind I’ve edited it so it doesn’t include spoilers for people who have not read the 6th book yet!
sorry I forgot. Well how about an alternate ending.
do you know when the contestis going to start?
AFJ. Hello there Merydith. I’m looking into a possible start date right now. Just a few little things to work on first.
