#COYER Mini-Challenge & Giveaway ~ Acrostic Accolades


Welcome to Acrostic Accolades, where I challenge you to write an acrostic poem to shower accolades on YOUR favorite character, book, series, or author!

To participate, you must:

  • Be a COYER Winter 2014-2015 participant

That's it! This is a chance for you to be creative in showing some love to favorite books you've read. I can't wait to see what y'all come up with!

To reward your efforts, I'm offering a giveaway for a $5 GC to Amazon or B&N.


***

So, to get y'all excited and your creative juices flowing, I've written an acrostic. It's for one of my favorite series - which I read in it's entirety in 2014...Rock Chick by Kristen Ashley. Enjoy!



What IS a Rock Chick

R owdy, rambunctious, riotous, real, but a Rock Chick is always RIGHTEOUS

O bliging, a Rock Chick is always at the ready to help a friend in need, whether it be to lend a pair of shoes, talk through relationship issues, plan a wedding, deal with druglords, or provide rescue from a psychotic ex-boyfriend

C lassy; whether rockin' a pair of jeans with flip-flops or Juicy couture, a Rock Chick always looks her best

K een, a Rock Chick needs to always be 'in the know', which often causes problems that need attention from her fellow Rock Chicks and/or the Hot Bunch Brigade


C onvivial; a Rock Chick knows how to celebrate with her friends, and knows that any party worth its salt serves cashews.

H ardheaded, a Rock Chick has been known to take a stand and dig in her heels...often negated by her Hot Bunch Guy 

I ntelligent and able to get herself out of a pickle with a baddie or her Hot Bunch Guy

C ourageous in the face of danger, a Rock Chick knows how to throw a punch and/or operate a stun gun

K ickass, a Rock Chick can take care of herself (usually) but always has the other Rock Chicks at her back - nobody bar brawls like the Rock Chicks

  3. OK, I just couldn't choose, so I wrote two...

    M A G E R I

    Magnificent, magical; the magi and other creatures
    Affluent, arrogant but also caring is he
    Gutsy, strong-willed, crazy and fun is she
    Effective, and full of humor and sensuality the story goes
    Rigorous training both physical and mental to make her stronger
    Irreverent, always, drinking giggly bubbles to make the party take off

    The H O L L O W S

    Hollow or full, something is always going on
    Ominous shadows over the city above the characters hang low
    Lowlives who want only power
    Likeable Rachel is there to save humanity
    Over-protective Jenks with his jokes about Tink
    Witty, and serious,never a dull moment with Ivy
    Slowly sensual, the burn is ever-lasting when it comes to Trent

  20. Thanks Brandee :) I always have fun with Acrostic poems, they alway end up with something a little bit corny because each line with a certain letter :D

  21. It's awesome, Stormi!! And I'm with Lexxie - Jericho absolutely deserves double mentioning. *swoon* I'm glad you picked this series...Jericho was on my list to highlight. :)

  22. Red Rising by Pierce Brown
    Red Rising will be standout among its peers

    Epic world-building, brutal, and enthralling

    Darrow is complex, a hero most worthy

    Reds slaves to the Gold will rise

    Infiltrate the Gold and attack from within

    Science-fiction, complex characters and outstanding
    world-building in this tale that left me spent and begging for more

    Iies and deception

    No word is wasted, beautifully written and captivating

    Gorydamn
