THE 3RD WAVE GIVEAWAY!
August 25, 2008
The 3RD WAVE GIVEAWAY has CONCLUDED. Thanks for your support, and expect a blog post about its success soon!
EEK! Due to the INCREDIBLE response, J.C. has to close The 3RD WAVE GIVEAWAY at 8pm EST, lest he go bankrupt filling these orders. But until then, the rules below still stand!
Please ignore Amazon.com’s foolish “Out of Stock” message. There are plenty of books to be purchased. Ignore the “Out of Stock” message, I say!
To celebrate today’s release of Mur Lafferty’s Playing For Keeps at Amazon.com, I’m hosting a promotion to drive sales of the book during the second half of the day. It’s the 3RD WAVE GIVEAWAY.
Here’s how it works: If you purchase TWO COPIES of Playing For Keeps today (Aug. 25) AFTER 5 PM EST (sales before this time don’t count, sorry), I’ll send you a 3rd copy absolutely free. UPDATE: This will be autographed to YOU by Mur Lafferty herself!
That’s right. I’ve got ten copies here, just itchin’ to be distributed.
If you purchase THREE COPIES of Playing For Keeps today after 5 p.m. EST, I’ll throw in that autographed copy of PFK and a copy of Matthew Wayne Selznick’s Brave Men Run, also absolutely free. UPDATE: This will be autographed to YOU by Matt himself!
If you purchase FOUR COPIES of Playing For Keeps today after 5 p.m. EST, you’ll get that autographed copy of PFK, one copy of Brave Men Run … and a copy of Tee Morris’ The Case of the Pitcher’s Pendant and Phillipa Ballantine’s Digital Magic absolutely free. UPDATE: These will be autographed to YOU by Tee and Pip!
If you purchase FIVE COPIES of Playing For Keeps today after 5 p.m. EST, you’ll get all that … and a hardcover copy of Scott Sigler’s bestseller, Infected. UPDATE: This will be autographed to YOU by Scott himself!
If you purchase SIX COPIES of Playing For Keeps today after 5 p.m. EST, you’ll get all that … plus an autographed copy of Expert Podcasting Practices for Dummies, signed by co-author Evo Terra. UPDATE: My only autographed copy of Podcast Practices… has been claimed! In lieu of that, I’m giving away autographed copies of Matt Wallace’s The Next Fix, signed to YOU by Matt Wallace himself!
Are you in? Do you have the cash to spare to support a new media author and help propel her book from the Top 20 to the Top 10 overall at Amazon.com? If you get generous, so do I — with free books! You can give ‘em away to friends, or keep ‘em for yourself.
All you gotta do is buy the books (the rules are clearly explained above) and send me an email of your compliance to 7thSonNovel@gmail.com. Your deadline is midnight, West Coast Time … today.
Remember to ignore Amazon.com’s foolish “Out of Stock” message. There are plenty of books to be purchased. Ignore the “Out of Stock” message, I say!
Drive Playing For Keeps up the Amazon charts even further — and get free swag for your support. Sales made only after 5pm EST count for this promotion. Get buying … and email me afterward! You’ll score free books!
–J.C.

Can’t tell you how much I appreciate this, JC. Thanks so much. And if you want signed copies of PFK, just find me at DragonCon.
Mr. Hutchins, you are an unstoppable force of nature, my friend.
Bravo!
Well, dang… I just bought some of those other books anyway! But I sort of worked around authors and whether I knew if they’d be at Dragon*Con, with Mur being the exception… I’m just buying an extra copy if it hasn’t arrived by then!
Anyway, this was an awesome promo, J.C., and I look forward to meeting you, Mur, Seth Harwood, and yeah, even Sigler at the Con.
You are too cool to have offered this incentive for PFK multi-book buyers. First off, it is an absolutely brilliant idea for a promotion. Second, it’s just another way you have given back to the podcast community - both the podcasters and us listeners. I hope it didn’t put too much of a squeeze on your wallet before Dragon*Con.
It was too far from the last payday for me to take you up on your offer (but I did buy one copy). I was planning on waiting for my check to come in on Friday, but your promotion inspired me to go ahead and buy mine on the 25th anyway.
I look forward to the chance to pony up for some copies of your books when it’s your turn to rush Amazon.
“Go, eagle! Go!”
