Win the first copy of the In Search of Monsters: Special Edition

From now until the end of the month, I’m holding a contest on this very blog to give away one free signed copy of the Special Edition of my book, In Search of Monsters.

Excited? Me too!

But wait, what’s in this Special Edition you ask? Well, allow me to elaborate. In Search of Monsters: Special Edition is a never before released version of my book with an intro to each story detailing its inspiration, evolution from idea to finished product, bumps I hit along the way in writing it, and its previous places of publication. It’s perfect for die-hard fans, fellow writers, and any lover of fiction that’s always wanted a behind the curtain look into the sausage-making process that is writing.  The best part, the only way to get one is by WINNING IT HERE FIRST.

Now, on to the important stuff. The ways to enter are these:

  1. Post a comment here in this post. It can be literally anything, from how much you enjoy this blog to how your cat’s breath smells like cat food. Just be sure that you use a valid email address when commenting so I can track you down. This will earn you one entry.
  2. Tweet about this post, including a link. Make sure you mention me (@JoshCov) so I know what you’re up to. This gets you two entries.
  3. Post a link in your Facebook status to this entry and email a screenshot to joshuacovington [at] yahoo.com. This also gets you two entries.
  4. Write a post of at least 100 words on your personal blog about me, my book, or this contest. It doesn’t have to be much but must include a link back here. When your post is up, shoot me an email at joshuacovington [at] yahoo.com to let me know. This will get you five whole entries.

At the end of the month, I’ll pick a random winner from this batch of entries. Contest ends Feb. 28th.

It’s as simple as that. And guess what? You can do all of these if you’d like (and believe me, I’d love for you to) and earn a grand total of ten entries. So go forth, spread the word, and good luck.
