Quest for The Blessing Stone!

 
Enter this contest for a chance to win one (1) of five (5) fabulous Blessing Stone Pendants!

"...It came into being in a cataclysmic explosion of stellar proportions that sent cosmic fragments plunging across the gulf of space. Like a shining ship the searing hot chunk of star-mass sailed across the sidereal sea, roaring and hissing through the dark night as it hurtled towards its inevitable destruction on a young, savage planet."

The story of the stone is the story of humanity. The story of a legendary and mythical object that changes the lives and shapes the destinies of all who come into contact with it.

To mark the publication of The Blessing Stone, Barbara Wood's groundbreaking new novel, Ms. Wood commissioned the design and creation of several breathtaking and mystical Blessing Stone pendants.  Five (5) of these hand-crafted pendants, will be given to those five (5) readers of The Blessing Stone that destiny has selected.  Are you possibly one of the five? Read on for more details . . .

  • Find the answer to the question.
  • Complete the Contest Entry Form and answer the question.
  • All completed entries will be entered into a drawing. The first correct response that is drawn is the winner.
  • If you don't win the first time, try again!  There will be five (5) separate drawings approximately every two weeks, which means that you have five (5) chances to win your very own Blessing Stone.
  • There is no purchase necessary.  Before entering, be sure to read the Official Rules for this contest

Want to increase your chances of winning? For every friend you refer to this contest (by providing their e-mail addresses on the entry form), we'll add another entry under your name to the drawing. You can refer up to five friends, which means you could have up to 6 entries into each of the five (5) drawings (Only valid e-mail addresses will count toward added entries).  Don't worry, your friend's privacy is safe.  We will not store or use their e-mail addresses in any way other than to send them a message from you inviting them to participate in this contest.
