Yes, you too could be a winnah!
You've still got time to sign up for our mailing list and be entered into today's raffle. We'll also do one last drawing on Monday (everyone needs a little extra happiness on Mondays, right?). The mailing list may be used for announcements and new content that's not on the blog in the future, but for now, it's simply a repeat of the previous day's blog post. So if you hear an echo in your head, don't be alarmed!

Making Amazon "stickier"
Little request for our readers that would mean the world to us — if you've read our book and are getting something out of it, would you mind posting a comment on Amazon? Amazon uses comment activity to decide whether to "glue" a book to another, in the form of "If you like 'Blah, Blah, Blah,' you might also like 'Blee, Blee, Blee'" recommendations — and we could use all the help we can get to put the word out. The comment doesn't have to be all glowing and sparkly either, just honest is what counts.

Thanks in advance!

And since it's Friday and nobody's really working at their worky-workplace, we thought we'd send you off into the weekend with some fun pictures by London/Berlin-based photographer extraordinaire Jan Von Holleben from his Dreams of Flying series. Must be so fun thinking through the right body poses to convey tension, a sense of movement, etc.

Don't you wish you would have thought of this idea yourself? Maybe you could try the idea at home with your kids or stepkids…. If you do, send us a pic and we'll post it on the site.

And don't forget, our next free meeting is at BookPeople this coming Tuesday. We hope you'll join us…. And there's a new Meetup group for it too, so hop on the hayride.

A happy weekend to you!
