Kaje Harper This thread is for posting links to giveaway drawings or contests for free books, or temporarily free books (with dates clearly specified.)

YA LGBT-content books only and the book must be free with no strings, not for read-to-review.

Please be sure to list the end date for any drawing or contest here so readers know when a contest is closed. Even better, come back and mark a contest posting closed when it is over.

If you are giving away a print book and there are restrictions on where you will ship to please note those also.

Good luck everyone.

You may also use this thread to link posted free YA stories located outside the group (such as serial stories or online fiction - YA-safe posting sites only please.) Please do not link teasers, or stories where subsequent installments will not be free.

Byron Maybe It might also be good to Advise if sending it overseas is an issue. i.e. if your contest is for a paper back it might not be in your budget to send it OS... :) Just a thought.

I think 16+ would be fair, although there's nothing particularly explicit or anything.

message 37: by Jamie (new)
