Y’all, this is a pheNOMenal prize.
Five signed books by the NYT Bestselling author, Juliet Blackwell PLUS a brand-new Kindle Fire HD6 and cover.
Juliet is one of my people, and I love her truly, madly, and very deeply. I couldn’t do this job without her. The really nice thing is that I also love her books (related? Possibly). Her newest is A Toxic Trousseau, and it came out yesterday on my birthday, and it’s SO fun. Haunted vintage clothing and a kickass heroine from San Francisco, who could ask for more? You have to work to enter this one but that’s good! Fewer entries = a better chance for you to win!
Get one chance for doing each of these quick, free things:
- Add Juliet’s latest A Toxic Trousseau to your GoodReads Want to Read list.
- Follow Juliet on Amazon.
- Follow me on Amazon.
- Follow me on Facebook.
- Follow Juliet on Facebook.
- Join my mailing list.
- Join Juliet’s mailing list.
(If you’ve already done any of these things in the past, that counts, just let me know.)
Leave to a comment on this post to let me know how many slips of paper with your name on them should go into my virtual hat. (How will I know if you’re telling the truth? I won’t! I’m not the truth police, thank god, because that would be a full-time and incredibly dull job, don’t you think? I’ll just check to make sure the winner has done what she said she did.)
DRAWING DATE: Tuesday, July 12, 9am PST.
Bonus round: Check out my birthday gift below, and get an extra entry for telling me your favorite office product/organizational tool you couldn’t live without.

Anna Luther says
What a cool bundle to offer, Rachel! I’ve completed all seven entry options (but skipped the bonus office supply one), so please throw my name into the magic hat! Thanks.
anne says
Three! I have a couple of favorite office products – I’m addicted to micro uniball pens, they’re the only ones I can use when I take notes at hearings. My other more recent favorite is so lame but I love them all the same – plastic hanging file folders for my lateral file drawer. They’re SO much sturdier than the cardboard ones, plus they come in fun bright colors! Happy Birthday!
danielle nabozny says
Following both of you on FB and Amazon; and both your mailing lists= 6 tries to win this awesome prize! Thank you
Michelle Crowhurst says

grace yaskovic says

Janine says
Five!
Sarah M. says
Done! All 7. I would say my (current) favorite office products are: my Erin Condren personalized planner & my Staedtler Triplus fine liner pens.
Deb T. says
Seven entries for me. I love sticky notes but especially the ones that are lined, plus the variety of colors makes it even easier to organize my thoughts!
Susan P says
Four for me, plus the bonus — I’m absurdly fond of my metal-bladed Scotty Peeler. It’s like a narrow razor blade with an offset handle and it’s great for getting labels and stickers off … Things.
Melissa Lopez says
All 7 have been completed!!!!
Kathleen Costa says

Allison says
All 7 on the list, I already followed Juliet. Thanks for running this wonderful contest.
holdenj says
Three! And I can’t live without those little hole reinforces! Thanks!
Jessica Smith says
7! I can’t live without my G2 pens (now on sale at Costco!!) and my revolving notebook of the month.
HeHa says
Three! I don’t have any favorite supplies are organizers- I don’t even use an app beyond just the regular notes one for my grocery and to do list.
Vanessa navarro says
Done did everything on the list!!! So excited! This is a great prize!!!
Annalisa says
Six, plus bonus: Binder clips (all sizes, but the mini ones are extra cute) are probably my favorite office product!
Llove the llama stickers 🙂
KathleenC says
6 plus the bonus (BTW… is follow on facebook the same as liking a page? That’s what I did)… Except that I have to admit that I don’t really have a favorite organizing tool because I am a disorganized mess! The closest would be my phone’s calendar and alarm combo. It’s the only way I cam (mostly) not miss appointments.
And completely unrelated… you have a lovely voice!.
Vanessa navarro says
I love that organizer!! What kind is it and where can I get my hands on one?! Are the smaller books in the organizer interchangeable once they are filled up? I would say my current fave office product are the new gel pens by Papermate!
Sophie B says
What a cool giveaway–her books sound great. Put me down for 7, plus the bonus–
My favorite office-y thing is my TOPS computation book (I like doing my longhand writing on squared paper, plus the paper is soft, relatively thick, and a gentle yellowed color). I also LOVE the uni-ball Signo 307 gel pen. Not an expensive pen but most stores still carry the cheaper version (207), so look for it online. The 307 is seriously the smoothest writing instrument I’ve ever used! The kind of pen you want to tell everyone about, regardless of bonus points for awesome giveaways!
Debbie says
1,2,3,5,7
Manila file folders! Colorful labels
Dana says
5 for me! I love Moleskine notebooks and Pilot G5 pens, and Staedtler Fineliner pens. I’m a sucker for any kind of writing implement though and am trying to resist the siren call of refillable fountain pens.
Michelle Palmer says
All seven plus the bonus: I am a teacher so my key organizational tool is a well organized file cabinet. (I mostly do everything digitally so the cloud is my primary organizational tool)
Rachel Frey says
All seven done!
Diane R says
Can someone tell me how to follow an author on Anazon? I don’t seem to be able to figure it out!
Beth Arrowood says
6, plus the bonus. (I had already done all the Juliet things, but I did yours today. I won’t add A Toxic Trousseau to my TBR on Goodreads because I finished it yesterday and will be uploading a review today)
I can’t live without my super-awesome date book, with a full, lined page for each day. 🙂
Susan Smith says
Six for me – I was already subscribed to your email! My favorite supplies are binder clips – I use them to keep the yarn in shape when I clip them to a basket or whatnot. I also love fine-point Sharpie pens and my bullet journal. I’m using a leather-covered Markings journal. Love it.
Meagan says
2 entries and for the bonus…My favorite organizational tool is a notepad. I can make lists and lists make life easy.
Shanan says
Four entries, plus the bonus: I love my Uniball Signo pen. It is super boring and common, but is just the right size, comfortable in my hand, and I love the way it writes.
Andrea says
3 entries and an extra. My favourite office product right now is the Midori aiplane paper clip. I don’t really need the paperclips but they are so damn cute! I already get your newsletter and that is how every new book gets read within 48 hours of it being released and I followed both you & Juliet on Amazon.
linda says
Six slips please
Dana Strotheide says
1, 2, 3, 4 and 6! As for office products, I’m such a whore. I love all of them. Right now, i especially love my MAMBI Happy Planner, uniball bold pens and any sort of sticker. 😉 Not terribly exciting, but…
Christine Wilson says
7 please! I already had these! I cannot for the life of me live without tablets and notepads. Old school lists and notes for me all the way.
Kristen Johnston says
Seven, please! And it’s silly, but I’m lost without post-it notes. Great way at the library I work at to communicate with staff who work opposing shifts!
melanie says
Five, please.
My favorite office products are bottles or cartridges of ink for fountain pens… Yes, I’m retro!
Laura Tidwell says
I did all 7 on the list above. I already followed Juliet on facebook, it is how I heard about this contest. Her wichcraft mystery series is my favorite and I just caught up reading just in time for the new book’s release! My favorite organizational tool is my planner. I get it from Barnes and Noble and I’m just about in need of a new one, it ends in July. This one is great because it fits in my purse and there is a whole page per day so lots of room for shopping lists, reminders, and notes. Thank you for the chance to win this awesome prize!
Deborah Carter says
Six plus my favorite office/desk item is my collection of various sized binder clips – incredibly versatile! Thanks so much for running this contest!
Milly Westman says
I now am signed up for all 7. Thanks for the giveaway!
Bonnie says
All seven! I’ve read all of Juliet’s books except this new one. Thanks for letting me know it was out! (Now that I’ve signed up for her newsletter, hopefully I’ll never miss a new book.) I love her writing style. I feel like I want to be friends with both her main characters. For eight, I’d have to go with colored pens. The day is a little brighter when I’m using an orange/pink/green pen. Thanks for hosting such an awesome giveaway! I’d love to upgrade my Nook Color that randomly freezes and won’t flip to the next page until I change the text size. 🙂
Theresa Lindquist says
Seven*. Office supplies? I am currently building Binder clip figures so I shall choose Binder clips 🙂
* I have been following Juliet on FB for a while and A TOXIC TROUSSEAU is marked read on my Goodreads list.
Leslie says
Happy birthday! I am celebrating mine today! 5 for me please, plus my favorite office product is highlighter tape!! 🙂
Monica Miller says
7! Whoo Hoo! I did all 7! Can you tell I am enthusiastic?
Monica Miller says
Oh, and I’m NOT organized. I have twin boys. Organization went out the window years go!
Kristine White says
Put me in the hat 7 times! I already followed/liked Juliet. I have added you as well!!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her books!!!!
Barb says
7! Woohoo!
My favorite is post-it notes. I use the for tracking everything. I usually have one of the big lined ones for my to-do list. It lets me move my to-dos day-to-day without making a disaster of my notebook.
Diane R says
Five, since I can’t figure out Amazon! For the bonus: my favorites are high quality protective sheet covers. I’m an amateur genealogist, and those are really important for protecting old documents and photos!
Carrie McCall says
7 for me, I was already following Juliet on Facebook, and 1 extra. I’m a stay at home mom of 3 busy daughters so my favorite “office supply” would have to be my wipe off fridge calendar, because schedules are changed like mood swings in this house, every 5 seconds
Terri Jones says
7. My current office product obsession is the Paper mate InkJoy pens. Such a smooth flow.
Stacy says
I’ve done 5 of these, thanks!
Suzanne says
Five entries. Bonus – I love pens and pads and sticky notes. Have many pens/pads ready to go with all my knitting projects.
Karen Wibrew says
Hi! I already followed Juliet on FB. I added you, I signed up to follow both of you an Anazon, signed up for both your and Juliet’s newsletters, added _A Toxic…_ to my reading list on Goodreads. I think that is 7 entries, please! Thank you!
Rebecca says
Three!
I am addicted to pens. Love when stores have areas to test drive them and see how they feel in you hand and how smooth the ink writes. Pretty journals don’t hurt either.
Jennifer McInnis says
Five plus one for the bonus – I love coloured sticky notes! (I would have seven but I am the last remaining human not on Facebook!). I love Juliet’s books and can’t get enough of Lily’s familiar Oscar!
belle says
Fulfilled 5, not on Facebook.
My fave office type thingie is a bound composition book. They used to only have black covers, now I find them in colors like Purple!
Cindy Martin says
I have done numbers 1, 4 and 5. So pretty please enter me in the drawing 3 times
Marilyn says
I’ve completed all the tasks for the quest for the prize. Your journal is wonderful. My favorite organizational tool is my calendar. I would be lost without it. A purple pen is always lovely.
Jinjer Stanton says
The only one of these I even knew about was Facebook. It’s the only one I’d done. Now I know about a new author–you!
Lynn Long says
Seven please. And I love my Midori passport sized travel journal with my Pilot Metropolitan fountain pen!
Sarah Hills says
Five entries. I used to work in one of the big box office supply stores and I developed an addiction to pens. I must have 200 pens in my junk drawer from when I worked there, haha. But fine point pens, especially colorful ones, are my real downfall. My favorites are the Pentel Energels. I have them in every color they made back then. Black, blue, purple, green and red. They make an orange one now too.
Tina Deaton says
6 here! My purple ink pen, post-it-notes of all shapes/colors/sizes and MS One Note!
Happy Birthday too!
Susanne says
Five. (I quite Facebook).
I can’t function without my planner, and of the many options I have hoarded at home, today I am using my Filofax Siena personal.
I make my own inserts and love to scribble down anything.
I got into your Firefighter books, Enjoying them one at a time.
Susanne says
spelling (I “quit” Facebook)
Jodi says
All 7 plus the bonus. Favorite office supplies are highlighters, Pilot’s B2P pens made from recycled water bottles and notepads for scratching out my “to do” lists on.
Evie says
6 + bonus
My favorite office product is my swing line stapler, the old heavy duty kind. I love it so much, I took it from job to job. I now use it at home to help organize my papers.
Thanks for holding the contest!
Evie says
Doh! 7 + bonus
Rebecca Wright says
All 7 entries and bonus round; favorite organizational tool is my bullet journal. I use a Moleskine with colored EnerGel pens. I LOVE office supplies.
Heather K. Leasor says
7 entries. I already follow Juliet Blackwell. Have been for years since I discovered her in the library. And I always eagerly await her books. I am ashamed I don’t have the 2 newest. A little behind on reading but I will get caught back up. My favorite supplies are my planner (it’s my brain) No matter how much info a phone can hold I prefer good old fashioned daily planner, mechanical pencil, and notebook or loose leaf paper
AnneS says
6 plus bonus- my favorite organizational tool is my Galaxy phone,it’s usually with me and it has a calendar app and a notebook app, both of which I use all the time,and a pdf reader so I can download knitting patterns so I don’t need to worry about losing the pattern in the middle of a project. I also keep books on my kindle app. My favorite writing instrument is a Zebra sharbo pen/pencil combo with a fine point pen & a .3mm pencil
Eric Poirier says
ALL 7! I already had a few but I completed all 7 tasks this evening
I am looking forward to the updates :D.
Bonus: This is a toughie..The tech in me wants to say my iPhone 6sPlus: its my agenda, notepad, and wallet, and much much more.
The other part of me wants to say a stuffed pencil case. If I don’t have the rights pens, pencils, high lighters, my whole feng shui is thrown off.
I also loved your Midori Journal! I’ll have to find them online and check them out!
That was fun! Thank you for hosting the contest.
Good luck!
E
Amanda naughton says
Seven plus a bonus I’ve actually already ‘listened’ to A Toxic Trousseau…not read but listeneded from Audible.com but you’ll see on my Good Reads account it shows I’ve read it, and I’ve already been following Juliet for some time. She’s one of my FAVORITE authors!!
And for the bonus round,,,,favorite office supply?? I can’t pick one!,, I LOVE THEM ALL! I wish I owned a small office supply store, I love playing with pens, paper, markers, labels. My step mother calls me and Organizational Queen…I love love love wandering office supply stores and when I use to buy them I got to go to the annual office supply show, HOG HEAVEN!!! All the big players giving out bags abs bags of new stuff and it was in San Francisco so great vendors, but if I had to pick One item that keeps me organized at my desk, POST IT NOTES 🙂
Debbie says
All 7! Also for a bonus entry my office supply item I can’t live without is post-it notes. Thanks!
Lynne says
3! And I could not live without pencils-because you can write with them AND draw with them!
Beth Schmidt says
Five slips of paper for me please!! As for my fave office supply… It would have to be file folders! Happy Birthday to you!
Shannon Stewart says
3 & for the bonus, I love purple pens. I don’t know why, but writing with them make me more creative/productive.
Kelli says
All 7! and a bonus (Happy Birthday!) for post-it notes and my Zebra 402 Pen (with my name engraved on it).
Karen Frisa says
Three for me! Plus my bonus round: I’m all about the electronic sticky notes.
Brian Brady says
8 entries, or 7+bonus. I like pens, black or blue ink only. Ultra Fine or Fine, no medium, no red ink or green ink or purple ink,
Anna says
2 for me, I don’t know if being boring and still using post-it notes and highlighters will be a good office supply tip for a 3rd! I also have a pad of scrap paper held together with a bulldog clip beside my computer at all times for list making! Thanks for the give-away!
Amy Higgins says
Seven please! What a great contest! And just in time for my birthday as well!
Charlotte Rains Dixon says
Six entries! Plus my current favorite office supply (it varies depending on my latest obsession) is my brand-new passion planner! I love this thing–there’s room for my calendar, my to-dos, and tons of fun planning.
Robin F. says
4 entries plus my favorite office supply is highliter tape for my knitting charts and highliter tabs for marking pages in my mags of things I want to do or reread.
Lea S Martin says
I’ve done them all…I know, overachiever.
As for office supplies, in our last move I discovered I’m a pen horder. 1 gallon bag full (and half of another. *blush*) I used to collect notebooks too. Plain red, blue, yellow, ect. But now it’s almost all electronic. Overachiever and a conformist. Egads!
Jennifer says
Four plus bonus. Two favorite things: TUL rollerball (medium with blue ink), and post-it notes, but not the regular kind – the super-sticky full-adhesive kind, so when I put them on my knitting charts, they don’t get knocked off and make me wonder which row I’m on.
Mary McCoy says
All 7. Also, for the birthday bonus, my favorite office must have are Post-it notes.
Katie says
Two entries, please 🙂 I see you’re using the Bullet Journal! Isn’t it great? I’m not using mine as consistently right now, but the jot-and-go, plus the flexibility of the system, makes it easy to pick up and use whenever I need to. I really enjoy it.
Robynn says
What a great prize! Four entries please – plus my wholehearted, undying devotion to my Moleskine Weekly Notebook (XL, softcover). It’s the diary I always dreamed of. It has just enough space on each day to note appointments, priority tasks etc, and a whole page facing each week for my complete to-do list and notes as I go. It’s big enough to lie open flat on my desk, guiding my day, but light and flexible enough to stash in a handbag. It’s beautifully minimal. It was perfect when I was working and it’s perfect now that I’m a hausfrau. It’s just perfect.
latifa daum says
5 for me plus the bonus.
I love JET PENS website!!
but when I look at my desk one thing I can not be without is the
PaperPro® Compact Desktop Stapler === it is so much easier on the wrist than regular staplers.
What a great prize.
Happy Birthday
Wendy says
I get 4 entries! I’m already on yours and Juliet’s mailing list, and I just followed both of you on Amazon. My fave office organizational tool is my new official work iPhone! For my personal phone I’m an android gal, but we just turned in our antique Blackberries and got new iPhones at work — we can access so much work stuff on it we almost don’t need the office!
Beth Schmidt says
Five slips please!! And my fave office product is currently my label maker 🙂
Kristina Anderson says
7! A Toxic Trousseau was just enchanting! I loved it. My favorite office supply product is my pencil sharpener. I could live without it. I use pencils for keeping notes and love a very sharp point. I also love my letter opener. I got tired of paper cuts and obtained one. Makes opening the mail a breeze! Thank you for a chance to win.
Donna says
I tried for 7, but I think it’s really 6, since I liked Juliet’s Facebook, but couldn’t find the follow button. My two favorite organizing tools are a set of colored ballpoint pens, and the reminders feature on my iPhone. Did you know you can not only have it remind you about something at a time, but also a location? It’s so handy.
Anita says
3. And my favorite office supply – fine point sharpies!
Laura H says
Six, please, plus the bonus. My organizational tool that I couldn’t do without is my Coupon Organizer.
Dorie says
I did (or already have done) all seven. Didn’t know you could follow authors on Amazon so that was a nice surprise!
Dorie says
Ooops, and my favorite office supply is boring old post-its. I use them for everything, including knitting.
Deanna Kowal says
All of them! I guess that’s seven .., I was already doing some of them. As far as organizing tool … App called ToDoist. Keeps me on track and can be accessed via all devices and can share/assign tasks.
Megan Olavarria says
I completed 6/7. The 7th was previously done. So excited about this chance. Thank you for the opportunity.
Donna Atwell says
6 entries please!!!! Keeping my fingers crossed
Donna says
All 7 plus the bonus! My two favorites are on either end of the spectrum: No. 2 pencils (with electric sharpener) preferred over pens, and my iPhone. No tech + high tech to get the job done.
Thanks for the chance!
Ann Tucker says
6 things for me!
My favorite things are post it notes and my Evernote app on my phone. Use it all the time! And I’m seeing a pattern with these two things: perhaps I’m getting a little forgetful? Always leaving notes for myself! LOL
Laura Tidwell says
Hello, it says my official entry comment is still in moderation and I hope I am in the running for the prize. I did all 7 and my favorite organizational tool is my planner! Thanks
April Kavaliauskas says
2 please

Ian Hughes says
All 7. And a belated Happy Birthday to you. It’s my birthday today. Old enough to know better, young at heart not to care! 😀 I couldn’t be without a notebook and papermate pencil to keep track of my lists, as I don’t have an all singing and dancing mobile phone! lol And I live in the UK.
Donna says
Four on the list plus the bonus. Love the Midori journal. Smartwritet #2 pencils, post-it notes and little sticky color tabs for page markers.
Meredith says
Four, plus the bonus: binder clips!!!
BETHANNE SCHMIDT says

Mindy Owen says
Hi Rachael. Thanks for hosting such a fun giveaway! I’m in for all 7 (been following you for a while). I’m new to Juliet’s writing and looking forward to reading her books. For my favorite tools, I reach for one of my many fountain pens and a Rhodia notebook, or my iPad Pro and the mind-mapping apps. I love to get my thoughts down and plan using mind-maps!
Julie Young says
I completed all seven tasks and my bonus entry will be for heavy duty no glare page protectors and inexpensive mechanical pencils. I’m a quilter and these two things are always at the top of my list for organizing and drafting ideas.
Deidre Pyron says
I DID THREE! THANKS FOR THE GREAT GIVEAWAY, BOOKS LOOK COOL!
Morgan says
Did all 7! Yay!
