Play Nooky with Liz & Lisa

We were thrilled when so many of you flipped for Liz & Lisa this past summer.  Y'all were amazing- we reached our goal of 1000 new "likes" on our Chick Lit is not Dead Facebook fan page in record time and named not one but TWO top fans who each received a YEAR OF BOOKS.  You heard that right.  So not only did we give a away a bangin' Flip Slide HD camera, we also gifted two very deserving fans with TWELVE books from authors we've had on the site in 2010.  Not to mention our Friday book giveaway. And being the complete giveaway whores that we are, we loved every minute of it! Which is why we're about to do it again!

Only this time, instead of flipping for us, we're hoping that you, your Facebook friends and your Twitterverse will come play Nooky with us. That's right, as soon as we hit 3530 "likes" on our Facebook page, we'll be randomly choosing one lucky fan to win, a B&N Nook- our favorite ereader!

And there will be a lot of other ways to win too. We'll also still be giving away a book each "Nooky Friday" and will be crowning yet another "Top Fan"!

And the best part of all?  It's so damn easy to win!  Want to know how?

Just give us your friends.

Your Facebook friends that is. All you have to do is “encourage” (you know… bribe, force or even threaten) your Facebook friends to “like” our Facebook page. Just one little click of the mouse. Because our little hearts flutter each time someone hits that little like button. (I know, we have issues...)

So…for every 1,000 people who click that “like” box (with the thumbs up sign) located on the top of our fan page, we will enter them and you (you’re automatically entered if you’re already a fan) to win a B&N Nook (retails for $149). Named "One of the Ten Best Gadgets" in 2010 by Us News & World Report, it will be the ultimate stocking stuffer this holiday season. And with it’s built-in wireless connection, you can download over a million titles in less than 60 seconds! (How’s that for instant gratification?) When we hit our goal, we'll randomly select a winner. Once the winner is announced, he or she will have ten days to claim the Nook!

Here’s how you can help us get from 2530 to 3530 fans (That’s the magic number!):

1. On Facebook and haven't "liked" us yet yet?  It’s okay, we’re not judging.  Just click here or on the Facebook icon located on the upper right side of this page (right below the “connect with us” banner).

2. Suggest the chicklitisnotdead.com page to your friends on Facebook.  How?  By clicking “suggest to friends” underneath our Liz & Lisa coffee cup photo located on our Facebook fan page.  It’s the easiest way to personally ask people to come on over and join the fun.  And it just takes a minute!

3. Go to your Facebook profile page. In the status box, write an “encouraging” message asking your friends to become a fan of our Chicklitisnotdead.com page on Facebook. Make sure to tag chicklitisnotdead.com in your status update. (In case you don’t know, to “tag”, you simply type @ and then chicklitisnotdead.com and chicklitisnotdead.com will come up as a live link in blue.)

3. Be sure to tell your friends that in exchange for simply “liking” us, they have a chance to win a Nook. Because, let’s be honest, everyone wants to know what’s in it for them! And who doesn’t want to win something?

4. And for you overachievers (you know who you are!) you can always tweet a link to our Facebook page as well. Be sure to include our handle @Lizandlisa because we’ll be watching and looking for our top fan (more on that in a minute).

And don’t forget that we’re planning a giveaway every Friday. If you’re on Twitter, RT any of our “Nookie Fridays” tweets and/or tag us in your Facebook status and you’ll be entered to win the prize we’re giving away that day.  This Friday, we’re giving out a copy of Seven Year Switch by Claire Cook.

And last, but definitely not least, we’re also honoring our top fan. The fan that goes above and beyond to help us reach our goal. We’ll announce that winner after we reach our goal. And, don’t worry, there will be another fantabulous prize for that person too.

So let’s get tagging and tweeting so we can give this Nook away!  We were blown away by your support during our Flip for Liz & Lisa campaign.  You have no idea how much we appreciate all of you.  Thank you so much!  Now can you please do it again? =)

xoxo, Liz & Lisa

Flip for Liz & Lisa

We've got news!

And we haven't been this excited about something since, well, Spanx. You know how we're total giveaway whores? Well, it's because we love giving away things in exchange for those comments of yours that we crave so much. Because we love you guys. We love your support and hearing from you and finding out what you like (and what you don't-although, luckily, our negative Nelly commenters have been few and far between).

And to show you our appreciation for your support, we think we've come up with a pretty damn good contest with some pretty damn good prizes (if we do say so ourselves!). To be part of this, it's simple. Easier than 90 second rice in the microwave or Nairing off your mustache.

Just give us your friends.

Your Facebook friends that is. All you have to do is "encourage" (you know... bribe, force or even threaten) your Facebook friends to "like" our Facebook page. Just one little click of the mouse. That's it. Because we're not just contest whores, we're fan whores too. What can we say? We just want to be liked. Maybe it's the awkward, Aqua Net spraying, Lee Press on Nail wearing, braces sporting, high school girls still living inside of us.

So...for every 1,000 people who click that "like" box (with the thumbs up sign) located on the top of our fan page, we will enter them and you (you're automatically entered if you're already a fan) and give away a kick ass prize. First up? We have the Flip SideHD to giveaway. It's simple to shoot and retails for a cool $279.99.  It's similar to the Flip that Allison Winn Scotch and Jane Green used to make their videos where they revealed juicy tidbits about themselves. But this Flip has some majuh extra bells and whistles like: you can watch instantly with the slide-up full widescreen, it records up to 4 hours in stunning HD and it holds up to 12 hours of videos, snapshots, movies, and Flip Channels. We love us some Flip cam and know you will too!

Here's how you can help us get from 1,320 to 2,320 fans (That's the magic number!):

1. On Facebook and not a fan yet?  It's okay, we're not judging.  Just click here or on the Facebook icon located on the upper right side of this page (right below the "connect with us" banner).

2. Suggest the chicklitisnotdead.com page to your friends on Facebook.  How?  By clicking "suggest to friends" underneath our Liz & Lisa coffee cup photo located on our Facebook fan page.  It's the easiest way to personally ask people to come on over and join the fun.  And it just takes a minute!

3. Go to your Facebook profile page. In the status box, write an "encouraging" message asking your friends to become a fan of our Chicklitisnotdead.com page on Facebook. Make sure to tag chicklitisnotdead.com in your status update. (In case you don't know, to "tag", you simply type @ and then chicklitisnotdead.com and chicklitisnotdead.com will come up as a live link in blue.)

3. Be sure to tell your friends that in exchange for simply "liking" us, they have a chance to win a Flip SideHD. Because, let's be honest, everyone wants to know what's in it for them! And who doesn't want to win something?

4. And for you type-A, sit in the front of the class students out there, extra points if you tweet a link to our Facebook page as well. Be sure to include our handle @Lizandlisa because we'll be watching and looking for our top fan (more on that in a minute).

And we don't know about you, but we hate waiting. (How much longer 'til the next Project Runway???) So while we're anticipating those first 1,000 new fans, we're planning a giveaway every Friday. If you're on Twitter, RT any of our "Flip for Fridays" tweets and/or tag us in your Facebook status and you'll be entered to win the prize we're giving away that day.  This Friday, we're giving out a signed copy of the advance reader copy of Georgia's Kitchen by Jenny Nelson. And it is fabulous--Lisa just read it and LUVVVV'D it.

And last, but definitely not least, we're also honoring our top fan. The fan that goes above and beyond to help us reach our goal. We'll announce that winner at the end of the summer. And, don't worry, there will be a freakin' great prize for that person too.

The faster we can get another thousand fans, the faster we'll be raffling off the Flip.  And we've said it before and we'll say it again, we couldn't do this without you. We're so thankful for each and every one of you that support us.  Now get your booty movin' and get us some more fans! *wink* *wink*

xoxo, Liz & Lisa

9 Things Liz & Lisa Didn't Know About...Allison Winn Scotch

She's not just a majorly talented, New York Times bestselling author with three fabulous books under her belt. Allison Winn Scotch also has serious celebrity radar (case in point: she saw Tina Fey, Ben Stiller AND Cynthia Nixon in the same week!).  She picked her husband up! (Wait till you find out where...) And she has quite a thing for cereal... We're SUPER excited about Allison's latest novel, The One That I Want available everywhere TODAY! We both loved the wonderful story about Tilly Farmer, a girl who's seemingly perfect life begins to fall apart after an old childhood friend gives her the gift to see into the future. Liz was unable to put it down-she finished it in one day flat! (A new all-time record, btw...) And Lisa has already read it twice! Redbook Magazine loved it too, choosing it as a June Book Pick and we agree- it's a must-have for your beach bag this summer!

And to launch The One That I Want, Allison is giving away some FABULOUS PRIZES if you order it between now and June 4th.  Send her the receipt and you'll be entered to win cool stuff like a Blackberry, a Flip camera, a bag of great summer reads and more! Head on over to her website or Facebook page for all the deets!

And that's not all!  We have FIVE copies of The One That I Want to give away!  Just leave a comment on this post to be entered!

Allison took time out of her uber-busy schedule not just to share 9 things about herself that we didn't know, but to make a video to reveal these things to us! (Thanks, Allison!)

And that's not as easy as it may seem. Think lighting, wardrobe and, of course, content. Well, we think she nailed it from start to finish. (But of course she did! We're beginning to think she's good at everything she does-she even has awesome tweets!) And we have no doubt you'll love this video as much as we do.

So, pull up a chair and watch and be prepared to learn some pretty interesting things about Allison. And don't forget to leave a comment here for a chance to win a copy of The One That I Want!
