Today I have the pleasure of hosting a great writer and friend, Kristin O'Donnell Tubb, as well as a great organization, RIF - Reading is Fundamental. Kristin's new book is called THE 13TH SIGN (which I can't wait to read) and she's holding a wonderful contest to help promote it - a contest which helps to raise money for this important foundation. I am thrilled to host day seven of the promotional tour! So, take it away Kristin...Welcome to DAY LIBRA of 13 Days of THE 13TH SIGN Preorder Contest!
LIBRA is traditionally considered to be the seventh sign of the zodiac. LIBRA characteristics include: charming, objective, agreeable, hesitant, indecisive, and warm. (Want to learn more about your 12-sign horoscope, your 13-sign horoscope, and which horoscope sign you ACT like? Take THE 13TH SIGN quiz!)
So. What is this contest all about?
If you preorder a copy of THE 13TH SIGN by Kristin O’Donnell Tubb, you will be entered into a contest! Where you can WIN THINGS! And there are new prizes every day!
And. EVERY preorder will be *matched* by a $1.00 donation to RIF, a literacy program committed to placing books in the hands of kids who need them most.
About the book:
What if there was a 13th zodiac sign?
You’re no longer Sagittarius, but Ophiuchus, the healer, the 13th sign.
Your personality has changed. So has your mom’s and your best friend’s.
What about the rest of the world?
What if you were the one who accidentally unlocked the 13th sign, causing this world-altering change, and infuriating the other 12 signs?
Jalen did it, and now she must use every ounce of her strength and cunning to send the signs back where they belong. Lives, including her own, depend upon it.

Cathy, ha! I'm an Aquarius, known partly for our flightiness. I don't think that's...what...what was I saying? ;-)
