Help!
Gremlins have stolen my book and messed with my cover art!
They’ve added (or subtracted) weird things to the cover of
my upcoming novel, Soul Cutter,
and hidden them on 10 different blogs.
and hidden them on 10 different blogs.
Please visit the 10 blogs and find each one's error so I can fix them. You can comment on the blogs with an “I found it!” or "Nice cover" or whatever, but DON'T give away the answers! Instead, put the 10 answers in an email to me: laura.6eg@gmail.com
I’m so desperate I’m giving away prizes:
1 e-copy of Soul Cutter
1 10-page critique by me
1 5-page critique by me
1 5-page critique by me
Here's the real cover of Soul Cutter.

| (Soul Cutter releases from MuseItUp Publishing on Dec 6, 2013.) |
The Soul Cutter is hunting again.
Seventeen-year-old Élan spends her free time videoing psychic scams and outing them online. Skepticism makes life safe—all the ghosts Élan encounters are fakes. When her estranged mother disappears from a film shoot in Egypt, Élan puts her medium-busting activities on hold and joins the search.
In Egypt, the superstitious film crew sucks at finding her mom. When a hotel guest is killed, whispers start—the locals think their legendary Soul Cutter has come back from the dead. Élan's only ally is Ramsey, a film-crew intern, but he’s arrogant, stubborn—and hiding dangerous secrets.
When Élan discovers the Soul Cutter is no scam, she finds herself locked in a deadly battle against a supernatural killer with more than her mother’s life at stake.
Élan's fighting for her very soul.
People who find all 10 errors (or get the most right answers) will go into a drawing and three will be randomly picked to win the prizes. The drawing and announcement of winners will be on Oct 31 – Halloween!
Happy hunting and don’t let the gremlins get you!
(You have until Wed, Oct 30 at midnight to write me with the complete list and be entered in the prize giveaway.)

Congratulations on your cover reveal! It's a gorgeous cover, and the story sounds excellent! I can't wait until I can read it. I'll have to look for the errors tomorrow, but I wanted to say "Yay for you!" :D
Awesome cover reveal! I'm off to check out the other blogs! :)
Congratulations, Lexa. Great idea for a reveal, I'll try and get round the blogs and keep my eyes peeled!
Oooh! How exciting! It's a gorgeous cover and I can't wait to hop around and see all the awful things people have done to it!
I'm poised.. I have located all of those errors on the live posts, but I'm waiting for others who are clearly behind me in our time-zones. Six in total. I'll keep checking back. What a cool cover, and even cooler idea! I'd expect nothing less. :)

Great idea for a cover reveal!

That is a really clever way to do a cover reveal! Now I have to go back and look at the cover I posted...
I know what's different on Father Dragon's. ;)
Clever idea.
This is such a good idea Lexa.
Oooo, sounds like a thrilling read right in time for Halloween! Congrats on the cover!!
Congrats, Lexa!! It's a wonderful cover.
Great cover! And what a fun game. Love it!
Ooh, I like the blurb you have there. And congrats on the great cover reveal challenge! A few of the errors haven't been so obvious. Having to look twice at some of them, so good job. :))
Love your idea! I found the error on my cover but I'm going to have to get my glasses out to discover the errors on the rest, I think :) Congratulations!
Great cover reveal! I'm almost there, but darn you - I'm supposed to be exercising right now! Or should that be thank you, I'm not exercising right now! LOL
I really hope this promotion works for you. Great cover for what sounds like a terrific story.
Congratulations and best of lucks for you and your book, Lexa. This was really fun! Dragon Hugs!
Beautiful cover and much congratulations on the book -- the blurb sounds wonderful! I wish you tremendous success with it!!!!
Someone needs to shoot a spitwad at Klahanie. LOL
This is an awesome idea and so much fun.
Melissa - Lol! I have an extra straw ;)
Am I the only one who cannot access Klahanie? :(
This is so much fun! What a great idea. :) I'll have to do it when I have a little more time. Congratulations!
First off, AWESOME background image.
Second, this sounds really cool. Congrats on the cover reveal!

Nope. Didn't you see my spitwad comment above? :P
xD
Maybe, if we blow realllly hard...
Fun contest!
Congratulations on the book cover release. Its a great cover Lexa. Loved the blurb.
Woo-hoo, congratulations, Lexa! Your cover is fantastic. And this is honestly the most creative and clever cover reveal I've ever seen. Thanks for letting me be a part of it! :)
Hey Melissa,
I think you are adorable. Spit away, my friend! :)
Hey Lexa,
Just wiped a bunch of spitwad of my amazing self. Ah the irony. By the time I made note about the time zone thing, all the rest had posted. Anyway, let's do this. I'm off to dry myself....
Gary :)
Who is this klahanie? Oh wait, the guy who is covered in spitwads! :)
"Maybe, if we blow realllly hard..." Melissa, lovely Melissa, I shall avoid an innuendo and I'm outta' here......
It's totally my fault, ladies (and slightly damp gentleman). I didn't take into consideration the worldwide implications of my cover reveal and didn't think to sync up the post times. Live and learn. ;)
Eveyrthing's up and working now! Yippie!
Congratulations Lexa, this is so awesome! I just wish I wasn't so late to the party! I saw your cover on Father Dragon's site and I guessed the error before coming over. What a fun cover reveal and I have to say I love the cover. I just started reading a book that has an Egyptian theme and so far I'm loving it so I'll definitely have your book on my list to read as soon as it comes out. Again congratulations, Lexa. Bravo. (:
BIG CONGRATS, Lexa!! The cover is awesome! I adore that pic of the gremlins at the top too. Too cute!!
Hope your day is smashing!!
