Enter the Sanctuary Lost Release Contest!

Posted on June 15, 2009 by  

Sanctuary Lost Contest

Okay, so I’m a little late getting our release day contest up, but with my home office in shambles and seven days to closing on the new house, hopefully everyone will cut me some slack.  ;)

A big scary knifeAnd speaking of cutting–yes! After the last post I went ahead and went for it! We are giving away a few things in honor of our latest release, but my favorite is this awesomely wicked looking replica knife, good for the next time you’re kidnapped by angry werewolves. (By which I mean to say–good for showing off?)

Mystical weaponry plays its part in the Red Rock Pass books, as witches and wizards have been at war with the werewolves for long enough that creating magical weapons meant to injure the wolves can be a profitable sideline.

But that’s not all!  We’ve also got 5 copies of Cry Sanctuary to give away, for anyone who’d like to discover the series for the first time, as well as some gift-certificates.  And thanks to the magic of Sprout we have a cool sharing graphic!


Grand Prize:
A collectible knife & $25 gift certificate to Books on Board
Five Runners Up: $5 gift certificate to Books on Board + Cry Sanctuary

To enter, reply with the following:

  1. Werewolf or Wizards: whose side would you fight on?
  2. Optional: Did you share the graphic anywhere?

Contest ends June 30th, 2009! Go crazy! And if you’re interested in checking out the madness, take a peek at Sanctuary Lost, available as an ebook now from Samhain Publishing.

  26. Nancy Gilliland says:

    Werewolf no doubt there is just something about those shifters that bring out the beast in me *s*

  30. Dave Maynard says:

    Ooooh, Wizards for me, magically!!

    Pat Cochran

  32. Nicole Hicks says:

    Werewolves- I love alpha males! ;)

    Yes I shared it here:
    my myspace blog http://www.myspace.com/nicholandria
    facebook posted and added a mystuff on my wall- Nicole Hicks
    live Journal- http://nicholandria.livejournal.com
    and

  33. ann marie says:

    Wolves all the way. Although in truth I have not met a wizard yet.

    I shared on my blog.
    http://www.annmariebro.blogspot.com

  34. Melissa Conatser says:

    No question for me…it is the werewolves!

    Melissa

  35. Andrea says:

    I pick werewolves! I love wizards, but there’s something about werewolves that just put them over the top for me.

  36. Roxanne says:

    Werewolves, most definitely.

  37. Melissa says:

    Sent here via a RT by @angelajames from Twitter. Very glad I was. Any story that involves sharp, shiny objects is OK with me! So this is going on my wishlist (provided I don’t win).

    To answer the entry question: Werewolves. Wizards always seemed kind of snooty to me, and I’m betting weres really know how to party.

  38. Cheri Oggy says:

    Most definitly werewolves!

  39. Valerie Mann says:

    I’d have to go with wizards, as sexy as werewolves are, I’m partial to brains over brawn. Having said that, give me a brainy werewolf or a brawny wizard and I’m toast. And I shared your graphic on my FB.

  40. George Ferris says:

    Werewolves.

  41. Ashley Ladd says:

    Werewolves are sexier so I’d have to fight for them. What a cool knife.

  42. Amy T says:

    Wizard, absolutely! Magick is the way to go. Gotta love sharp things, and shiny, well, that goes without saying.

    I shared on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=home#/profile.php?id=540846736&ref=nf (I never know if I’m grabbing the right URL. I hope that’s right)

  43. Skylar Kade says:

    I’m with the Weres all the way. Wizards still evoke images of Merlin for me… and that beard just doesn’t scream “sexy” the way a muscle-bound wolf-man does. And wow, is that knife hot or what!

    Your graphic found a new home on my blog:
    http://skylarkade.com/blog/2009/06/15/love-for-fellow-samhain-author-moira-rogers/

  44. Tameka Green says:

    It so hard to chose why can’t we have werewolve that’s also a wizard they best of both worlds. But if I had to choose I would go with havin magical powers I can find alot to do with those type of powers even transform into a werewolve. Lol

  45. limecello says:

    I’d go with werewolves; although Harry Potter has the happy wizard association I’m afraid too many other things have negative wizard-ness. I did grow up with Patricia C. Wrede’s dragon books.

    Also, I did post the sprout here: whee! http://limecello.blogspot.com/2009/06/moira-rogers.html

  46. Definitely werewolves.

  47. Sharon says:

    I AM PARTIAL TO WIZARDS

    I LOVE THE GRAPHICS,BUT HAVEN’T SHARD YET.

  48. Pamk says:

    werewolves definitely and yes I posted it
    http://www.bookcrazyscrapbookmama.blogspot.com/

  49. Margaret says:

    I would love to discover your series. It sound fascinating :) .

    But decide between werewolves and wizards? I’d have to say wizards cause I can always transform myself with magic and I’ve had enough of a lifetime of moon cycles ;) .

  50. Leslie Jane Fahrney says:

    Why do we have to choose before we get to see who has the best looking guys? I would prefer togo for the better looking of the two.

    I’m guessing, when not a wolf the werewolves would be a sexy bunch, muscular and sleek. So have to go with them, if I have to choose.

    Leslie Jane

  51. titania says:

    I would be for the werewolves

  52. Karin says:

    In the world you’ve created, I would definitely go with the werewolves. There’s just something about them that makes me want to fight with them.

  53. Sarah Ulfers says:

    I’d go with werewolves, the wizards are always stuck up.
    Love the graphic but haven’t posted it yet.

  54. Catherine Lemansk says:

    I would be on the werewolves side, they are soooo misunderstood.
    I couldn’t share the graphic as my son has yet to download adobe onto my new laptop.

  55. Frana says:

    Werewolves definitely. I just adore shapeshifters :)

    Graphic is on my blog (right sidebar)

  56. Jennifer Graham says:

    Werewolves

    and no I have not used your graphic but it is awesome!

  57. Heather C says:

    I had to go with the werewolves…my furry friends. :)

    I shared it on facebook:

  58. bridget wolfe says:

    Werewolves or Wizards? That’s a very hard choice. How about both?
    I put the graphic on my myspace page.
    I collect knives so I was wondering. Is there a way to get the knife without winning it?
    It would make a Great addition to my collection.
    ; D
    Bridget

  59. Chris J. says:

    Love the tease for Santuary Lost! and the cover is beautiful!

    Hard choices these, but I would choose Werewolves!
    It would be a blast to howl at the moon and run wild under the moon!
    Great Contest! Thanks!

  60. Julie Robinson says:

    WOW, Moira, that is an awesome looking knife! I got my now 18-year old son collecting knives and swords years ago (out of my own interest in them). Right now I am taking an on-line writing course on “Surviving the Paranormal Investigation.” Would I like to have that knife with me to fend off any creatures of the night! :-)

    I will attempt to share the graphic on MYSpace, but as I’m not real technologically proficient, I’m not sure what will happen. Now as far as whose side I will be on . . . that’s a toughie. I love werewolves, BUT as some people would consider me a heretic i.e. witch, I’d have to take the side of the wizards and witches. So that knife would come in real handy next time I hear howling outside my bedroom window.
    :-)

  61. Book Junkie says:

    Werewolves by far!!!!
    I posted on my blog

    http://myfoolishwisdom.blogspot.com/

  62. Paula says:

    As much as I love werewolves, I feel like playing for the other side today, so picking Wizards.

    Sorry, I don’t currently have a place where to share the graphic.

  63. Karen in TN says:

    I’d have to pick werewolves – better to die from a single blast than get mauled (longer pain, plus you convert to the other side, becoming a traitor to your cause).

  64. Tamsyn T. says:

    Definitely werewolves. Give me a shapeshifter anytime! :o ) Tamsyn

  65. Julie Robinson says:

    Cool, Moira! The graphic is now posted on MySpace.

  69. Roberta Harwell says:

    Don’t get me wrong I love them both. Seeing as we have to chose, I’ll go with a wizard. Have a great day.

  70. Mary D says:

    I’d definitely pick the werewolf ! ;)

    and I’m not able to do option #2 :(

  71. Lexie C. says:

    1. Werewolf or Wizards: whose side would you fight on?
    Wizards–I’m more scared of Wizard fire then I am of werewolves honestly. But I think that a Werewolf Wizard would be the most badass ever.
    2. Optional: Did you share the graphic anywhere?
    I posted it on my sidebar at my blog: http://lastexilewords.blogspot.com

    Thank you! (ps that knife looks so COOL!)

  72. Mel K. says:

    I would definitely fight for Wizards. I’ve never met a Wizard I didn’t like! Plus I can’t deal with Werewolf hairballs. *g*
    Sorry. I did not share the graphic. I’m too busy fighting for Wizards!

  73. I would have to say werewolves. Wizards are ok but werewolves rock.

    I posted it on the sidebar of my blog

    http://habrewer.blogspot.com/

  74. Aleisha H. says:

    Wizards or Werewolves..I’d side with the wolves. Something about the wildness of the beast that calls to my own inner being and makes me want to howl in the madness is just more than I can tame.

    I shared the graphic on myspace.com/skoti_demon and http://mischievousac.spaces.live.com.
    I can’t wait to sink my teeth into some of these books.

  75. Jody F. says:

    Since I’m an animal lover, I’d go with werewolves.

    And I shared the widget on my facebook page.

  76. Carol G says:

    Not something I have given a whole lot of thought to, but considering the newer viewpoints of the werewolf culture, I would probably go with the werewolves. After all, since there is a certain pack mentality in virtually any group, it is probably best to have it organized. And besides, wizards seem to frequently be rather lonely.

  77. bridget3420 says:

    I would fight with the Were’s.

  79. Kate Pinn says:

    Is this open to internationals? I’m from the UK.
    I’ll have to pick wizards, I love magic. But I secretly love both :D

  80. LorettaC says:

    I have to go with the werewolfves even thought I think the wizards would win. I have both books and have enjoyed Cry Sanctuary but haven’t read Lost Sanctuary yet. I shared the graphic with some other readers.

  81. Amy S. says:

    1. Werewolf or Wizards: whose side would you fight on? Werewolf, alpha males, yum

    2. Optional: Did you share the graphic anywhere? I put it on my blog.

  82. Connie says:

    Werewolves!!!

  83. Kainani says:

    I love them werevolves!

    Shared on my blog:

    http://kainanisreadz.blogspot.com/

  84. I’d go for the weres because – pun intended – they’re the underdogs. Plus they’re majorly bad ass creatures and I love the whole idea of living in a pack like that. Even if you’re not related by blood, you’re family.

    Not to say that wizards don’t have anything going for them, because they do, but my heart was given to a werewolf before I could give it to a wizard. :)

    I posted the graphic on my blog: http://elisajankowski.blogspot.com , which auto-feeds into my notes on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=27710637&ref=profile

  85. Congrats on your new release! And I really love that dagger. Looks wicked cool.
    Werewolves or Wizards? Well it really depends on who the good guys are. But if I was picking just based on a species I liked best, I’d take the werewolves. Why? Well I always feel the were’s get less respect then many of the other paranormals. And me, I always root for the under-dog.
    And yes, I have blogged about your contest and release here: http://ladyvampire2u.blogspot.com/2009/06/moira-rogers-sanctuary-lost-release-and.html

  86. Maija P. says:

    I love werevolves, but I would fight on wizards’ side.

  87. Kimberly B. says:

    I’d definitely fight on the wizards’ side. Thanks!

    If open worldwide then I am in :)

    I would…hard one, but I will go for the werewolves cos I just find them yummy ;)

  89. Teresa W. says:

    I would go with the werewolves, their my second to vampires! Just started reading a new series by Keri Arthur the first inb the series was Full Moon Rising. I’m always looking for new authors and series to read!

    I have to say that werewolves rock!! They are always hot, naughty boys with a beast inside- yummy!!
    I shared on myspace!!!

  93. Vicki Wurgler says:

    I would have to go with the werewolves!

  94. kaisquared says:

    Wizards, something about a long, strong wand wielded with magic!

    Sadly, I have no blog or website to share the graphic on.

  95. JenR says:

    Absolutely Werewolves – all that strength and protectiveness, yep, werewolves.

    I’d share your graphic if I had somewhere to post it. Really need to get up with the times and get a blog, myspace, facebook, something.

    Thanks for the contest,
    JenR

  96. Tara W says:

    I love them both, but I would definitely fight on the side of the wizards.
    The graphic is on my blog:
    http://mizztara71.blogspot.com/

  97. I thought I had posted but I don’t see my post.

    I would definitely have to say werewolves. I love me some Alpha males. Some of my favorites are Kelley Armstrong’s Otherworld series, Kitty Norville by Carrie Vaughn and Patricia Briggs Mercy series.

    I know i’ve been here because the graphic is on my blog page:
    habrewer.blogspot.com who knows.

  98. Wendy says:

    I prefer magic over might, but in a fight…. I guess it would depend on the fierceness and numbers of the werewolves compared to the magical strength and numbers of the wizards. As long as I don’t already share an alliegance with either of them, I prefer to fight on the side I believe to win. On the other hand, if I knew nothing of either or if they were equal… I like the idea of a Wizard better. With the right knowledge of magic, a wizard would be able to replicate the strength of the wolf as well as all the other spells at their disposal.

    I put your graphic on all the crap my best friend as forced me to sign up to. :)
    Myspace
    Facebook
    MyYearbook
    And the one place I signed up on my own, AlabamaMoms

    I met Bree’s husband online and was invited to join his game. He told me about your books. I read a couple of the free reads and was intrigued. I will definitely be getting a book . I can’t wait to meet you when I come over for the game Saturday!

  99. Tanja Cilia says:

    Werewolves have more fun, albeit they spend more on dentistry… and shampoos and hair conditioners. So… although I may not fit in, because my hair is wash-and-go, I would want to be on their side.

    bsides, I’m sure I’d trip in my robe if I were a wizard.

    I put the contest on my Face Book page.

  100. Dena says:

    Definitely Werewolves!

    I told my sister , daughter, and a few friends. I don’t think that counts though. Congrats on the new release.

  101. david lateiner says:

  115. Just simply notion I’d provide feedback and claim wonderful concept, have you code it all yourself? Appears to be like outstanding!
