#StrangeLit Giveaway: Day 1 [ CLOSED ]

GA1Winner

Right on the heels of the #StrangeLit bundle release was the announcement of the launch event which will happen at Recession Coffee, Eastwood on October 24, from 2:00-4:00 PM. Now that should’ve made me really excited because it’s going to be the first time I’ll be attending a launch for something I wrote, but it’s my high school kabarkada‘s wedding on that day as well, and I CANNOT miss that or she’ll have my head on a platter.

So because I can’t really have fun giving away stuff on that day, I’ve decided to do my giveaways before the launch instead. If you’d like to join these giveaways, all you need to do are the following:

  1. Buy the #KillerSeasons bundle on Buqo. (It’s just P90 right now, P250 in a few weeks, so take advantage of the introductory price!)
  2. Read my novella, The “Forget You” Brew.
  3. Follow me on Twitter (@tarafrejas) and like my Facebook page (/taratriestowrite)
  4. Stay tuned for GIVEAWAY ALERTS, like this one below:

GA1

Do you know the answer to this question? Hurry and DM the answer to me @tarafrejas (and remember NOT to tweet the answer). I will be accepting entries until midnight tomorrow, October 6.

Two winners will receive the following:

Hope you guys join! <3
