9/9/09 UPDATE: Congratulations to the 10 winners of a free copy of Hero Wanted on LibraryThing. You know who you are. I put the books in the mail yesterday. And thanks to the more than 200 people who entered the contest.

Greetings, Loyal Reader!

A quick note that I am offering 10 free copies of Hero Wanted at LibraryThing.com. To have a shot at one you must be a LibraryThing member — it is free to join — and add your name to the request list by September 4th.

LibraryThing will determine the winners by whatever secret formula they use. I’ll send the books out shortly thereafter. My hope and expectation is that the 10 lucky winners will, after reading Hero Wanted, post a review on LibraryThing.

If you’re not familiar with LibararyThing, it is an awesome site for book lovers. You can catalog all your books, share your collection, meet other readers with similar tastes, post and read book reviews, participate in book-related message boards, and sometimes win free books. And much more. Check it out — you’ll be glad you did, even if you don’t win one of the 10 free copies of Hero Wanted!

Best regards,
Dan McGirt
