Contest and Free Short Story

October 15, 2006
If you've visited my website already, you'll note mention of a contest. Just by entering my newsletter mailing list--which trust me, will be fairly rare--you get entered in the chance to win a $100 gift certificate to the bookseller of your choice or a signed copy of THE DEVIL'S PITCHFORK. (1 grand prize winner will receive the certificate and a signed copy, another 9 will receive a signed copy). You will also be e-mailed a copy of my Derek Stillwater short story, "11 Minutes."

Now, on the site it says the deadline for this is October 15th. However, due to some expected online promotion stuff--AuthorBuzz--expected this week, I have decided to extend the deadline until the 21st.

So, sign up and you're entered. And I'll send you a copy of "11 Minutes."

Or, if that's too damned difficult, e-mail me and ask for the short story. I'll send it to you and if I'm organized enough, enter you in my mailing list anyway, which will automatically enter you in the contest.

Since the E-Newsletter is through Vertical Response, if you find in the future that my E-Newsletters annoy you, it's easy to opt out.

And if you've received my e-newsletter but NOT received a copy of "11 Minutes," this is because you were on my earlier list and there's over 700 of you and I never got around to sending it to you. If that's the case, my apologies for not being organized enough, e-mail me, say hello and ask for "11 Minutes." I'll e-mail it right to you.

Best,
Mark Terry
