Because I had trouble understanding how to join the party at first (thankfully Keri helped me) I decided to make a guide for everyone! Without further ado...

The TweetGrid Guide:

Step 1: Go to http://tweetgrid.com/party 
 Step 2:
 \/You should see this page \/
Step 3:
\/ You want to enter in our hashtag: #The13thChime \/
Step 4:
\/You want to add in your hosts: @EmmaMichaels, @Cinnamon_Quill \/
(Don't forget to seperate the two names with a comma.)
Step 5:
\/ Now you want to enter in your own username so that you will be able to see tweets directly to you! \/
(If you are worried because they don't ask for your password it is because they do later on)
Step 6:
\/ Click Join the Party \/
Step 7:
\/ This is what you should see \/
The Party is on the left, your hosts (Me: Emma Michaels and Keri: Cinnamon_Quill) in the middle and on the right you can see any messages or tweets on your page or sent to you!

Step 8:
\/ This is the part where you will need to enter your username and password. \/
(I have done this before, it is secure)

Friday The Thirteenth Chime Blog Tour has commenced!

Friday The Thirteenth Chime Blog Tour:



The Thirteenth Chime by Emma Michaels
'A Sense of Truth' novel
Photobucket

No one knew of its existence until it was removed from the attic upstairs.

In a beautiful house that overlooks the sea, an antique clock has the power to change the course of their lives.

The power the clock resonates will not only force Destiny and ex-boyfriend David on a journey into the depths of one man's mind long dead, but into the mind of a man filled with hatred and bent on revenge.

With the only clues to the nature of the clock having disappeared into the sea, Destiny and David must retrace the steps the man had taken into the darkness, before they fall prey to the trap he had set in motion over half a century ago. 

Hatred never dies.

For more info on the tour go to my third tab or click here.
More Tour events will be posted soon to keep checking in!!!

Teaser Tuesday: Beautiful Dead by Eden Maguire

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

My Teaser:

Photobucket

"Hey, you."
Please just keep standing there with the sun making a halo around your head and let me drink in every inch of you.
"Hey. Get in, you two, and let's take a ride," was what I actually said.

Yes, that is right, only a few short months away and I will need all the help I can get getting a buzz started and creating some serious hype about my debut. Unlike many authors, I am a book blogger turned author and more than that, a serious Young Adult fan and devotee so I want to do things right so please support me on my quest to get to the top 100 Best Sellers List!!!!!!! 

I can't do it without you! I need for everyone to post my countdown widget or help get the word out in any way you can because I realize you all are my secret weapon and together we can make it there!!!!!

You all may have notice I did a complete blog revamp, all of my websites will also be getting complete makeovers including my website www.EmmaMichaels.com and my newest website www.TheThirteenthChime.com. There will be a lot of changes being made but I will not stop my reviews and will still be keeping up with posting as always.  The main difference is that the better the book down the more I can do for all of you including giveaways and so much more. I am going to be doing a lot of offers that most wouldn't but you all mean so much to me that I just can't help it. Including that after the novel's release if you buy a copy and e-mail me your receipt and mailing address I will mail you swag for your support. You can even get swag for referring others!
