hunt, a whole new contest

    1. I can't get Aprilynne Pike's to work. I just get a title page.

      Delete
  2. Ha! I think the comments needed that! Kate Evangelista's link is broken, Collen Houck's goes to her website but directs to a blog post that doesn't exist.

    1. It really did! :) Although I wish I'd been able to save the comments that had come up from this round...

      The hunt doesn't technically go live for another couple hours--it's based on Pacific Time, so those links will (hopefully) be live at the proper time. There will be an announcement on this website's home page when the hunt is officially open.

    2. Actually, Mary, Colleen's page is working. Try refreshing?

    3. I finally got it up, but I had to go to her blog, then click on the post. I haven't tried using the link again.

  3. Also, Brenna Yovanoff's number is indistinct. It looks like it could be two different numbers.

    1. Brenna's number is NOT in Roman Numerals--it's the number it appears to be :)

      Delete
    2. Oh, good. I have terrible (like, the worst) eyesight so fonts can really mess me up sometimes. :)

      Delete
    3. I cant even find Yovanoff's number... Any tips where to look?

      Delete
    4. I had some troubles with it too. It's not in the red that everyone else uses. Its in the Last paragraph.

  4. KATE EVANGELISTA, MAUREEN MCGOWAN and DIANA PETERFREUNDs links do not work. Some of the erlier comments asked about authors that i couldent find in the list. Can you repeat wich writers are in?

    1. Hi Rebecka,

      The hunt isn't officially open yet--authors are not required to have their pages live until noon Pacific Time.

      The earlier comments were about past hunts. The list of authors participating in this hunt are the ones in the post above.

      Delete
    2. Maureen's post is up, but her link goes to maurenmcgowan.blogspot.com, which doesn't exist. You just have to pop in another e and it's fine.

      Delete
    3. And Diana's link needs an additional t for http. Currently the link reads htp.

      Delete
    4. Got them both fixed, thank you!

      Delete
    5. No worries! You guys work so hard on this! If there's any way I can help, I'm all for that. Plus, I have today off so naturally I'm spending it stalking 50 authors online. ;)

  10. Why does Cloe Jacobs say what number Jennifer Armentrout has and not her own? Or am I missing something?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. That was a mistake on Chloe's part--please only take note of HER favorite number, not Jennifer's for the hunt. We're contacting her to fix it.

      Delete
    2. I already entered the red team with that mistake. Will my answer be discounted if she changes her number?

      Delete
    3. Kate and Rebecka, I've noted your entries and corrected them; you're both fine.

      Delete
    4. I entered my entry before noticing this so my number for chloe is the jennifer Armentrout number

      Delete
  11. Diana Peterfreund's and Kate Evanfelista's blogs don't seem to have posted it yet. That's not just me, is it?

    1. Nope--theirs aren't up yet. We're working to get that fixed.

    2. God that it is not only me that cant find there posts! I was getting worried! ;)

  12. Am I blind or does DIANA PETERFREUND not have a posting about this hunt (I used the extra t to get onto her page)?

  13. I would like to say great job to the people organizing this sure there are a few bumps in the road but really rangling 50 authors (and us creative types are notorious for being procrastenators and just more than a little wacky) to get this done was a huge job. So thank you from a person who loves YA literature
