If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a book is worth…

about 60,000 or so.

At least if the old publishing stand by of 250 words per page is correct. Wondering what I am babbling on about? Check out the pic of me holding my very own copy of Elements of the Soul. As you can see I am delighted to hold the book with my short story in it in my hot little hand. If you look very closely you will see my name on the cover.

What, can’t see it? You may just have to look at the actual book to notice it. To that end- I am giving away an autographed copy to a lucky reader. To enter, comment on this post. Be sure to leave an email address if I can’t find you by clicking on your name- or if you are loathe to leave it. I will announce it on the blog on December 8th and will ask the winner to email me.

Bonus entries if you blog, twitter or link on facebook about the contest. Please include links with your comment. If you absolutely can’t wait to have one, you can purchase one now on Amazon or email me and I will sell you an autographed copy for $11 plus shipping.

    Cool idea, Rissa! I’d love to figure out how to get a copy signed by all of the Elements of the Soul authors. I’m having so much fun reading it right now. :)

    Hey, mind if I steal your idea and give one away on my site, too?

  14. Rissa Watkins / Nov 24 2009 3:05 PM

    Feel free Jo!

    Congrats on all of your accomplishments including your new book! Even if I don’t win, I’ll order one to read over the holidays on my vacation. :)

    I just got an email from Rissa…

    I won the book! I never win anything so to win something I really want and will enjoy is so cool! Thanks to all of my writer friends who are in “Eements of the Soul” I know it will be a fantastic read! Can’t wait.

    Thanks Rissa
