Fall 2017 - Young Adult Scavenger Hunt - #YASH






Welcome to YA Scavenger Hunt! 



I'm Margo Kelly, and I'll be your hostess for this leg of the hunt. I write thrillers, and I'm excited that my second novel, UNLOCKED, has been in the world for a whole year now! Somewhere along this scavenger hunt, I've shared exclusive content related to UNLOCKED, and clear down at the bottom of this post, I'm giving away a signed hardback copy of it (exclusive to readers of this post) along with a super cool flashlight key chain! Yup. That's right. 





(So be sure to enter the Rafflecopter giveaway at the bottom of this post before you hop off to the next site in the scavenger hunt!)



By the way, you are currently hunting on TEAM GOLD.







This bi-annual event was first organized by author Colleen Houck as a way to give readers a chance to gain access to exclusive bonus material from their favorite authors ... and a chance to win some awesome prizes! At this hunt, you not only get access to exclusive content from each author, you also get a clue for the hunt.

Add up the clues, and you can enter for the prize -- one lucky winner will receive:
one book from each author on the GOLD team! 

But play fast: this contest (and all the exclusive bonus material) will only be online until noon on Sunday, October 8, 2017!


Go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page to find out all about the hunt. There are multiple contests going on simultaneously, and you can enter one or all! I am a part of the GOLD TEAM -- but there are other teams, each with a different set of books!

If you'd like to find out more about the hunt, see links to all the authors participating, and see the full list of prizes up for grabs, go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page.

SCAVENGER HUNT POST

I am happy to introduce you to the author I'm hosting for the hunt:
Sarah K. L. Wilson




"NOBLEBRIGHT YOUNG ADULT SCIENCE FICTION AND FANTASY
Daydreaming is what I do best. When I was a kid, my family took long road trips and I spent a lot of time looking out the window and daydreaming stories to entertain myself. Now I write them down and entertain other people. I love philosophy, so if you want something different and with a mind-bending twist then look no further. "

  1. No, I haven't and never will. I wouldn't be able to stand the loss of control.

  2. No, I haven't been hypnotized and probably wouldn't want to be!

  3. Lol, no I havent. But in high school I went to this hymotize show (actually it was 8th grade) and there was a guy up there who thought he was some famous singer (until literally he stepped across the doorway leading out) and I got his signature and everything....and then I dated him the next year but we didn't realize it until it randomly came up.

  4. Fortunately, I haven't had the experience of being hypnotized! And its a good thing, too! Not sure how I would feel about it.

  7. I have never been hypnotized. I've seen it plenty, but i haven't tried it personally, and honestly, i don't know that I really believe in it, i think it's kinda BS like the pseudo science of astrology...

  8. Never and I really hope I never am in the future!

  9. I have not been hypnotized before and I do not think I would be brave enough to try! Interesting to watch though! Thanks for joining the hunt and the extra giveaway! :)

  10. I'm not sure that I'm suggestible enough to be hypnotized. I would find a hard time relaxing enough. I would be on my guard. Never tried though, so you never know.

  11. I haven't been hypnotized. I think I'm too skeptical for it to work.

  12. "The main character in UNLOCKED is hypnotized at a local fair, which leads to trouble in the story. Have you ever been hypnotized? How did it go?" I can't really picture how any human, ever, could get hypnotized! But I'm sure it makes for an excellent literary theme!

  13. I have never been hypnotised, I would be to scared as I hate being out of control x

  14. i've never been hypnotised...i wouldn't want them to make me do something embarrassing =P

    ReplyDelete
  15. Never been hypnotized but I would love to watch it happen. So very interesting!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I have been hypnotized before and it was a fun experience. Didn't have to do anything embarrassing. I just clapped my hands whenever a the word help was said. It was weird because I had to really focus to not do it.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Hypnotism isn't something that interests me at all. Stay away from me with your mind control, thanks. :P

    Love your book's cover by the way!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Nope, I haven't been hypnotized. I'm a bit skeptical about it too. I did read or watch something about hypnotism bringing up forgotten memories or your past life, I think that's kinda interesting. I'm wondering if I should try it out if I get the chance.
    Thanks for joining YASH and for the giveaway!

  20. Never been hypnotized. Curious to see if it would work on me. :)

  21. I've never been hypnotized, but at a high school senior event, I saw a mean girl who masqueraded as a nice girl hypnotized, and her mean side really shone through. Fascinating!

  22. I've never been hypnotized. I would be willing to try, but I'm very skeptical that it would work.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Yes, it happened at a bar as part of entertainment with a bunch of people. I don't think it worked really well on me.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I have never been hypnotized but i am definitely willing to try it to see if it works

    ReplyDelete
  25. I have not been hypnotized and I don't know if I want to be.

  26. No, I haven't tried being hypnotized and I never want to either.

  27. No, and I could never be hypnotized because I have the blood of JESUS on me!
