Here's a little bit about Novel Novice and their Clockwork Angel feature:
Novel Novice is known for its regular Book of the Month features -- and this August, we are going all out as we feature Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare and her Mortal Instruments series. We worked closely with both Cassie and the folks at Simon & Schuster to put together some really exciting content. It's quite possibly the biggest Book of the Month we've featured at Novel Novice to date! Here's just a taste of what you can expect:
- August 2010 Desktop Wallpaper Calendar featuring Clockwork Angel
- An Introduction to Steampunk, the genre that categorizes Clockwork Angel
- A Steampunk Writing Contest (five winners will receive a Clockwork Angel prize pack)
- A Mortal Instruments Character Tweet contest - choose one TMI character, imagine they're on Twitter and write a 140-character "tweet" from that character (three winners will receive a set of Mortal Instruments books)
- Guest Post from Cassie: 19th century literature & Tessa's Reading list from Clockwork Angel
- a spotlight on the best fan-made trailers & videos for TMI
- a Q&A with the artist behind HebelDesign, TMI & TID-inspired jewerly on Etsy that's officially approved by Cassie
- wallpapers for Clockwork Angel -- some provided by S&S, others created by the Novel Novice staff
- A spotlight on Mundie Moms and other TMI fansites
- a feature on poetry used in Clockwork Angel
- Guest Post from Cassie: The Connection Between Clockwork Angel and A Tale of Two Cities
- Q&A with Cassie about Clockwork Angel and her upcoming projects (like all those new TMI books!)
- A lesson on the Legend of Bodicea (which is featured in Clockwork Angel)
- reviews of Clockwork Angel by at least two of the Novel Novice staff members
- TMI-related teaching resources provided by S&S
- Q&A with Vania of VLC productions about making the official Clockwork Angel trailer
- essay & project topics for Clockwork Angel & TMI series (so you have the perfect excuse to read these books for school!)
