This scavenger hunt will be held from March
1-March 31. Winners will be announced April 1, 2008.
Welcome to the 5th Anniversary Scavenger
Hunt! We’ve created this hunt to help celebrate this momentous
occasion, to expose you to the talent of our authors, and have
a ton of fun in the process! Oh, and win lots of cool prizes,
too!
There are two different Scavenger Hunts!
So be sure to participate in both to double your chances of winning!
The Scavenger Hunts can be found at both our websites, the all-genre
General Line (this is where you are now)
and the erotic and sensual Torrid
Romance Line.
What exactly am I searching for?
You’re searching for the little green scavenger hunt icons
we’ve hidden on our authors’ websites. The icon looks
like this:
Where can I find these icons?
Every icon is located on a page on a Whiskey Creek Press author’s
website. No icon will be more than one click away from the author’s
home page, so it shouldn’t take you too long to find it!
How do I know which authors are participating?
Clicking on an icon will bring you directly to the home page of
the next participating author, so there’s no need to worry
that you’ll end up on an author who does not have an icon.
What do I need to do to win one of those
awesome prize bundles?
To be entered to win one of the prizes, as you go through the
hunt, you need to write down each author’s site you’re
going to and the page on which the icon is located for that author,
either the exact URL or the page title (e.g. Books, Links, Author
Info, etc.). Once you hit the end of the scavenger hunt, e-mail
scavhunt@whiskeycreekpress.com
with your answers and contact information. Everyone with the correct
answers will be entered to win one of the prize bundles!
How do I know the scavenger hunt has
ended?
The last author’s icon takes you right back to this Anniversary
page. So once you’ve reached this page again, you’re
done!
Note: this does not pertain to the “click
here for details” links under the icon.
What exactly am I playing to win?
Below this information is the breakdown of the different prize
bundles offered to winners of the scavenger hunt. Winners will

Most importantly, where do I start???
Click the first Scavenger Hunt icon below: (Hint:
The first page is really easy!)
So here’s the scavenger hunt in
a nutshell:
Click on the Start Here link below to be taken to the first
author’s page.
Find the icon, write down the author and the page (either
the URL or name of the page) on which it’s located.
Click the icon picture to go to the next author’s home
page.
Find the icon for that author, write down the author and
the page (either the URL or name of the page) on which it’s
located.
Rinse, repeat until you make it back to this page.
• No icon will be more than one click away
from the author’s home page, so make sure to check all links
and look at pages from top to bottom! And don’t forget –
some icons may even be on the home page of the author –
easy peasy!
• If you need any reminders of the process along the way,
each icon has a “click here for details” link underneath
it. Just click on that and this page will come up to help you
out!
• If any link breaks, or if an author’s page goes
down, please e-mail scavhunt@whiskeycreekpress.com
with the last page you were on, and we’ll look into it and
fix it as soon as possible, and let you know when you can continue.
If it’s determined to be a fatal error, you’ll be
able to submit your answers up to that point and be considered
for the grand prizes.
