  4. I entered all my details above, but it doesn't appear to store them..?

    So here they are again in a nutshell: I already follow everyone, tweeted with special twitter art @ThePoetTrees and since we just missed my guest blog over at the Supernatural underground, I posted on BOTH my facebook pages facebook.com/anitabell.fanpage and .author

    Yes, I "liked" your page with both identities too (so do I get 4 entries for that? cheeky wink)... and I tried to link with google but it wouldn't let me. Kept giving me an error, so I'll try again later...

    best of luck!
