First: The winner of Roxanne St. Claire’s contest last Monday was Sherry, Message # 44! Congratulations! (Please contact Roxanne at roxannestc@cfl.rr.com to give her your address.)
Now…HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVE!
You all know I love Halloween, 
I’ve been talking about it since last month! So I thought today at Plotmonkeys, we’d just have some FUN.
I made up the following 15 Trivia questions (with a bonus extra credit section.) Give it your best shot. (No cheating by copying someone else’s answers…lol!) Whoever has the most correct answers wins a prize pack of my 3 books that have some kind of Halloween element. These include my newest release, ASKING FOR TROUBLE, a 10/03 Temptation called TRICK ME, TREAT ME, and my very first published book, a Harlequin Temptation from 9/99 called NIGHT WHISPERS.
If there’s a tie, we’ll use the tiebreaker section at the end. In case of more than one tied top score, I’ll do a random drawing.
Now, ready? Get set…GO!
1. When springtime comes, you don’t want to be late,
just don’t ask this girl to be your prom date.”
Who is she?
2. Chunky writers who are sitting all day really need to exercise. But they don’t need The Exorcist like this green-puking girl did…
Who? (name the actress)
3. One winter at the Overlook, and you’ll want to come back.
Unless you’re there with a father named Jack!
Big Wheels in the hallway, dead broads in the tubs,
The book was by the author Leslie truly luvs!
Name the movie: (extra credit if you name the author of the book)
4. Who played Michael Myers’ sister? (the one who survived…name the actress)
5. “When Eddie said he didn’t like his teddy,
you knew he was a no good kid.
But when he threatened your life with a switchblade knife…
What a guy! Makes you cry. And I did.”
Who played Eddie, and in what movie?
6. Who likes a nice chianti to go with his fava beans?
7. On Friday the 13th, don’t go out for a swim,
Because you must remember what happened to him.
Who?
8. Cute as a button, hair red, freckles black,
He’s a little doll…with a knife behind his back!
Name him:
9. “The plane’s gonna crash!” “The cars are gonna crash!” “The roller coaster’s gonna crash!” GET OFF NOW!
Name the movie franchise:
10. Before he became Captain Jack Sparrow and Sexiest Man of the Year
Johnny Depp met this monster, who filled his dreams with fear.
Who?
11. Norman Bates, his mother he hates,
He felt so much power, killing Janet Leigh in the shower.
Name the movie
12. “Hello, Sidney,” a scary voice said. How many more SCREAMs would there be ahead?
Name the total number of Scream movies
13. Sigourney Weaver’s Ripley could have been a Bombshell heroine… Name the movie series

Leslie Kelly used to say she wanted to be a doctor when she grew up, but then she discovered Nancy Drew books. Being a flashlight-under-the-covers-nose-in-book reader throughout her childhood, she couldn’t think of anything else she’d rather do as an adult than continue to lose herself in fictional stories. Her real life marriage of 20 years to the man of her dreams is a constant reinforcement that happily-ever-afters really can happen…and that they’re worth writing about. Living in Maryland, Leslie spends her non-writing time laughing a lot with the above-mentioned romance hero and their three daughters. Though an author of more than thirty sexy, contemporary comedies, she has recently branched out to write dark romantic suspense under the pseudonym Leslie Parrish.

The one that seemed to stump everybody was the Johnny Depp question: “dreams” was the keyword–he was killed off rather brutally by Freddy Krueger during his dream in the original Nightmare On Elm Street.
Anyway, randomly drawn among the several “all correct” guesses was…HEATHER HARPER, comment # 21! Way to go, Heather! Drop me a note with your snail mail address and I’ll get your books out to you right away. ( leslielou@lesliekelly.com )
THANKS EVERYONE FOR PLAYING!!!! Hope you all had fun.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!
