Defy the Stars Book Weekend: Giveaway & Author Mad Lib


Here's a look at how the weekend has gone so far: 
Today: Giveaway & Author Mad Lib


Now it's the time you've all been waiting for. Stephanie has graciously donated an ebook copy of
 Defy the Stars for me to giveaway to one lucky follower!


a Rafflecopter giveaway

This is a segment where I'll give an author the title and list of words needed to complete the story,
I will then post the completed Mad Lib here. I asked Stephanie to fill in the blanks and this is the funny but tragic tale we came up with. 

"Samson and Delilah (A Tragic Dialogue)"

DELILAH:   Sam Samson! Will you stop doing those silly exercises.

SAMSON:   Listen, Delilah. I have to keep my tomatoes in shape. After all, I'm the strongest    
          Unicorn in the tribe.

DELILAH:   Well, you look ethereal. Look a the way your hair hangs down over your toy.

SAMSON:   I've been busy. Yesterday I had to kill 10,000 Philistines with the jawbone of a          
             hippopotamus.

DELILAH:   Filthy swine! You promised to take me to a dirty party tonight.

SAMSON:   Okay. So I'll skip my hair.

DELILAH:   I'll do it for you. Now just sit here on this bicycle and I'll give you a tired haircut.

SAMSON:   Okay.

DELILAH:   There. Your table is nice and short. How do you fell?

SAMSON:   Yellow

  5. Oh yes, it's extremely important to keep those tomatoes in shape. Don't want flabby fruits when you're a unicorn. This is hilarious and such a fun idea, thanks so much for sharing!
