I want you to take a book selfie with my new book,\u00a0Blightborn<\/span><\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

*stares*<\/p>\n

*stares harder*<\/p>\n

YOU WILL DO THIS.<\/p>\n

And, if you do this, you might win one of two visidexes<\/del>\u00a0Kindle Paperwhites<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

These are special Kindle Paperwhites, though. They are\u00a0fancy<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Each Kindle will have a custom cover that matches the very lovely Blightborn<\/strong> cover.<\/p>\n

Further, each Kindle will come pre-loaded with\u00a0Under the Empyrean Sky, Blightborn<\/strong> and\u00a0The Wind Has Teeth Tonight<\/strong>. Three Heartland stories in one.<\/p>\n

(You can see the previous photo contest with another book of mine,\u00a0Blue Blazes<\/strong>, right here<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Here’s how this works:<\/p>\n

You take a photo of yourself with my book,\u00a0Blightborn<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Physical or digital version of the book is fine. Just make sure the photo captures that (oh-so-lovely) cover.<\/p>\n

Cell phone photos are fine, as are photos taken by any other means of photography. DSLR, pinhole camera, a shot from the Hubble Telescope aimed at your face and my book,\u00a0whatevs<\/em>. (All photos will be posted to Flickr for easy perusal.)<\/p>\n

You send me this photo — use e-mail address terribleminds at gmail dot com, and be sure to apply the subject header: [Blightborn Book Selfie Contest]<\/p>\n

This is open to the United States only, at present.<\/p>\n

You can enter only once.<\/p>\n

This contest runs for two weeks. Entries are due by 11:59PM EST on Sunday, August 24th.<\/p>\n

[edited: contest extended by a week, as some folks asked!]<\/p>\n

There will be\u00a0two<\/em> winners.<\/p>\n

I will pick one winner — my favorite!<\/p>\n

And the\u00a0terribleminds<\/strong> readership here will pick\u00a0their favorite, too.<\/p>\n

Both winners will receive the fancy-pantsy Kindle Paperwhites.<\/p>\n

And that’s the long and short of it.<\/p>\n

Any questions?<\/p>\n

Then go nab Blightborn<\/strong><\/span><\/a> and start snapping some selfies.<\/p>\n
