Morgyn doesn't have her publication date set yet for her first novel, but wanted to use Pinterest to attract both readers, riders and writers.

I'd like to know about running Pinterest contests? Are they worth the trouble? Easy to run? My website stats show that I get more traffic via Pinterest than anything else and I'd love to be able to get some of those browsers to sign up for my newsletter on my website. Is there anything I can do in Pinterest to encourage people to sign up for the newsletter?
