5 Top Selling Books Given Away Free to Five Lucky People
I am going to try something totally different for the next few days. Starting today 12-11-09 through 12-14-09, I am going to give away five top selling books with the author’s autographs and personal notes in them.
In the past I held a drawing to see who will get them. I am not doing that this time. These books will go to the first five people who sign up for my free newsletter.
I am go to describe each book to show you that they are not just any book, but top quality, and nationally known:
The Shack: Written by William Paul Young
es I said, The Shack. I met William Paul Young at a writer’s conference, and two other times after that. He not only wrote a personal to you the reader but he autographed it. I will be giving away two copies of this book.
This book has sold over 7 million copies so far, and is still on the top selling list of many of the top selling lists. This book started out as a book just written to his children and close friends. Some of those friends told him to send copies to some of the other friends on his list. He did and the rest is history. The book took off faster than Young and his partners could handle.
The book is about questioning God, and how to survive after you have lost a loved one. It has a very unusual approach as what God, the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit look and act like.
The Shack is a little cabin up by a lake, and the symbolism of the shack is that it has the door to your heart that you sometimes need to open to grow.
(BTW… the cheapist I could find The Shack in the stores, was $10.00 at Walmart. Good price, but you can get it off of this site by clicking on the Amazon icon and getting it for $6.00! Even with shipping it is cheaper than any where else. Great Christmas present.)
Three Cups of Tea: By David Oliver Relin.
Three Cups of Tea, is one of the top selling books for the last three years. It was number 1 on the New York Times best selling list for many months.
It is the story of Greg Mortenson, and his quest to build schools in Afghanistan. He felt that if the children had a proper education that there wouldn’t be many going into the Taliban terrorist camps as soldiers. He was doing this to promote peace one school at a time. The troubles and trail he went through to get this project started, and the burden of getting all the equipment need to the sites is well worth the read.
Not only did David autograph the book, he also wrote a personal note. I met him at a signing, and we had a nice conversation.
The Lord of the Films: by J. W. Braun.
This is the unofficial, official guide to the several movies about The Lord of the Rings. The author put in many hours of research, and study to give you everything about the background and making of the films.
It is autographed by J. W. It is full of pictures from the sets during the film making, and statements by the actors, and producers. The forward is written by Clifford Broadway who played a soldier in the movies.
A must have for anyone who has followed these fun and exciting movies.
Creed of Old Montana: by Stephen Bly.
Stephan Bly has written over 100 books. He has won the prestigious Christy Award. It is even written in large print, so it will be easy on the eyes.
I met Stephan at a writer’s conference in Oregon. He is a great keynote speaker, and easy to sit and talk with.
Here is the exciting part. This will not be a drawing. These books will go to the first 5 people who sign up for my free newsletter. The first one to sign-up will have the choice of any of the five books, and then each one after that will choose.
To do this is very simple. Go over to the right sidebar, and click on the icon that speaks about signing up for the newsletter. Notice that it also says you will be able to download a free eBook, called, The Top 25 Ways to Survive in a Troubled World.
So, you will get a free book if you are one of the first five people to sign up; a free newsletter that has excerpts from my book, Signs of Hope: Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World. Plus excerpts from my latest book, Becoming Famous Before you are Famous, and a free eBook called, The Top 25 Ways to Survive in a Trouble World.
Becoming Famous before you are Famous, is in process. I am writing it with Michael Clark from Jacksonville, FL. It is like a manual on how to build a platform, and get known long before you even consider approaching a publisher or an agent. It will speak about Facebook Twitter, My Space, Friendster, Linkedin, etc. You will be able to read each chapter as it is first written, and will help by making suggestions on how to improve it. It will be “our,” book.
Take time to sign-up, and receive one of these wonderful books. There is no obligation to stay with the newsletter. There is an opt-out area at the bottom of each issue.
