Looking for some fun this summer? Love to read and need to find a new wow-author? If you enjoy games and books and puzzles, then this might be for you. One hundred forty authors got together for a scavenger hunt.
Here’s how it works. Each author holds ONE SECRET KEY WORD. It will be somewhere in a post (probably pretty recent:).
Collect those words to reconstruct the lost story so you can enter into the grand prize drawing. And there will be lots of bonus prizes along the way, too. Many of the authors offer their own prizes along the way. You’ll have fun, make some new friends and discover countless treasures in the new books and stories you discover! JOIN THE HUNT HERE
THE OFFICIAL RULES
Each author will be given a special keyword, which will be bolded and all caps like this: BUTTERFLIES.
All you have to do is visit all the author’s sites in this order, write down the special keywords to discover the short story, then enter the giveaway with the completed secret legend HERE.
There will be one main giveaway for the main prize, but most of the participating authors will also have smaller giveaways for free books, amazon credit and author swag, so make sure you read their post carefully to see what else they’re offering while you’re on their site for the keyword.

- 3:11 am ·Your “secret word” is way too hard to find. You have so many all CAPS, BOLD words in your most recent posts, that its impossible to tell which is the word. I’m becoming very disappointed in this SH, as a lot of the authors have repetitive words, i.e. “the the moon” or they haven’t posted their word at all. smh.

Remember- this is a scavenger HUNT.. not a Scavenger “drive-thru, hand me my stuff” 🙂
