Carolyn Howard-Johnson shares writers’ resources on her award-winning blog Sharing with Writers
Today, guest blogger Lois W. Stern is offering my visitors–both writers and readers–a fun free-to-enter contest. It may be the first such contest I have ever offered on this blog (I have been doing this blog, for a long, long time and memory is short!) The marketers among you may get some ideas you can adapt to your own promotions!
Lois W. Stern, creator of the Tales2Inspire’Authors Helping Authors’ project/contest, invites readers to enter the NEW HONEY BEE AWARD contest.
As a child I was taught Hillel’s meaningful words:
If I’m not for myself, who will be for me? If I am only for myself, what am I? If not now, when?
I often think of the message behind those words, and lately, as an author and creator of Tales2Inspire, have been pondering how they might relate to us as authors.
I’ve come up with an idea to satisfy all three parts of Hillel’s creed, starting with, If I’m not for myself, who will be for me? Like all of us authors, I want reviews for my books. But then, in adherence with Hillel’s words, If I am only for myself, what am I?, I wanted to give those writing reviews some benefits as well, and just like Hillel, asked myself, If not now, when?
To this end, I have created a NO FEES, MONTHLY HONEY BEE AWARD CONTEST.
To satisfy Hillel’s words, If I’m not for myself, who will be for me?.I am asking you to write a review for ONE single story published in ANY of the Tales2Inspire books.Use the form at: http://tales2inspire.com/honey-bee-award/
Each month Carolyn Howard-Johnson will select a winning review. What’s the pay off for winners? In adherence with Hillel’s words, If I am only for myself, what am I?each monthly winner’s name, review and credits will be posted on CHJ’s The NewBookReview blog,and tweeted to herover thirty-six thousand Twitter followers. Furthermore each monthly winner will get a coupon for a FREE Tales2Inspiree-book of their choice.

MORE ABOUT THE GUEST BLOGGER AND HER TALES2INSPIRE PROJECT
Lois W. Stern’s Tales2Inspire was a kernel of an idea that started in 2012 and has grown to proportions even she didn’t dare to envision. Her innate curiosity about potentially fascinating human interest stories was the spark that ignited this idea. But it was the confused state of traditional publishing that propelled her forward. Tales2Inspire delivers exactly what it promises as both an ‘Authors Helping Authors’ project and a contest. Winners get their stories published in print, e-book and some even in video formats, with their names, headshot photos, and mini-autobiographies included. Then she spreads the word about the winners and their stories on her blogs, social media and monthly newsletter. FREE to enter, this is a great competition for talented newbies and seasoned authors alike.
