Word Ninjas, Ink

*mysterious swishing noise*


*flash of silver*


*DEATH*


If we didn't love you, you'd be headless on the floor right now, because THE WORD NINJAS are coming to a town near you. Or adjacent to you. Ok, maybe not YOUR town, but a nearby metropolitan area.


DUHN DUHN DUUUUUUUUHN.

*crickets*


Did we not explain who the Word Ninjas are?


..Word Ninjas, Ink...
What it is: a collaboration between authors and online bloggers/reviewers designed to foster communication, information sharing, and fun in an effort to spread the word about upcoming releases in the YA market.


Who we are:


Word Ninjas, Ink. is comprised of two ninja-factions:


The Word Ninja Authors is a panel of authors whose novels launch this year and also blog on the Word Ninja website. At the moment, authors include Lisa Mantchev, Michelle Zink, Sarah Ockler, C. Lee McKenzie, Jon Skovron, and Cindy Pon.


The Word Ninja Street Team is a group of online reviewers/bloggers who will work closely with one to two authors a month as their books launch. Street Team members will also have the opportunity to blog on the Word Ninja website.


Long-term vision: We would like to see Word Ninjas grow into a comprehensive organization that not only assists authors with their launches but fosters supportive communication and relationships between authors, online bloggers, and the reading community. Ultimately, we would like to develop a philanthropic platform that would allow us to give back to the reading community in a meaningful way.


..Are you interested in joining the Word Ninja Street Team?..


What's in it for you: promotional swag that you can keep or use as giveways on your blog, a monthly giveaway/contest just for you, improved relationships with authors and booksellers, inside information, increased exposure for your blog, and most of all, fun! And crazy!


What's in it for us: regional, on-the-ground support for launches, improved distribution of promotional materials, better relationships with reviewers/bloggers (you!), and of course, more fun!


Still interested? Shoot us a message that includes your blog URL, general geographical information (city/state) and your age. If you are under 18, you'll need permission from a parent or guardian!
