Win a signed copy of “My Life at First Try.”
Mark Budman has found critical success with the publication of his debut novel, “My Life at First Try,” which came out from Counterpoint Press in November 2008. This novel-in-flashes (every chapter is a stand-alone but interlinked story, most no longer than 2-3 pages) was well received, with interviews being published in variety of publications, from People Magazine to Time Out Chicago. “My Life at First Try” is what Budman defines as a “semi-autobiographical” fiction.
All you have to do to enter to win a personalized signed copy of "My Life at First Try" and $50 in cash is to send an e-mail with the subject line of “My Life at First Try contest,” along with your contact info and a ONE-SENTENCE SEMI-BIOGRAPHY (a biography based on a true story, but fictionalized) pasted in the body of the e-mail (no attachments, please!) and you will be entered to win. Please enter only once. Bear in mind that Publishers Weekly called this novel “blazingly fast and funny,” so write your entry accordingly.
The winning entry will be printed on Mark Budman's website.
The contest is extended until June 1, 2009.
The contest runs until June 1, 2009, with the book being mailed out that evening. Good luck!
