Bookstore Event & Contest Rules Update

I am traveling to northwest Arkansas for a book signing at the Skia store in Bentonville. Here are the details:

May 10 - 11:00 am to 3:00 pm

Book signing

Skia Bookstore

3301 South Walton Blvd.

Bentonville, AR


If you are anywhere in the area, please come out and see me. I will sign any books you already own, and I'll give you a free autographed poster of Beyond the Reflection's Edge.

Here is a new way to gain points in the contest:

Make a poster about Beyond the Reflection's Edge and put it on a school, church, or store bulletin board. The poster has to be at least eight and a half by eleven inches, which is the sized of standard paper, and it must have an image of the book cover.

You can get the book cover image by clicking here. A poster needs to include where a person can purchase the book locally, or if there is no local place to get it, mention that it can be purchased online at Christianbook.com, Amazon.com, or another online bookseller.

A poster is worth five points, but you won't get extra points for more than one poster at the same school. You may put the poster up in many different places, but only one credit per establishment. To get credit for a poster, please send me a digital photo of you at the place where you placed it.

I will update the original contest post with this new rule.

I'm homeschooled. Can we put up the posters somewhere besides a school?

Bryan Davis said...

twin4god,

Do you have a suggestion for where you could put it up?

Bryce said...

Places like, churches, parks, libraries, stores.

Also, can we put up more than one as long as they are put at different places?

Bryan Davis said...

twin4god,

I think bookstores that carry my book and churches would be great, as long as you're sure they would let you leave them up.

I don't know about parks and libraries. People don't go there thinking about purchasing books, do they? For now, I'll say no, but I'll have to think about it.

I'll have to come up with a list of things to include on the posters. One should be where you can buy the book locally.

Are you asking if you can count more than one poster in the same church or bookstore?

Bryce said...

No I meant can we make more than one poster or are we only able to earn the 5 points once?

Craig Snedeker said...

I dont go to school, but can i make posters and let ohter people print them, and get points if they use them?

Bryan Davis said...

twin,

Yes, you can put your posters in many places and get five points for each.

Craig,

As long as you send me photos to prove the placement of the photos, that will be fine.

Craig Snedeker said...

Brian, I wouldn't be the one sending you the photos, other people would have to send the photos to you and give me credit. I can post the links here to the posters, or email them, its up to you.

Bryan Davis said...

Craig,

Email them to me, please.

Craig Snedeker said...

Ok brian, will do :D

oh that sounds awesome!!! i was thinking of leaving a poster in MY church (not in others...), but yeah, would it count putting a poster in the library or maybe a public bulletin board at my rec center... ALOT of people look at the board there

I can't post videos because my computer's slower than a turtle without legs in a bodycast. Darn!

Would it count to put it at my Tae Kwon Do class bulletin board?

Bryan Davis said...

Abigail, yes, putting the poster on the Tae Kwon Do board will count.

Bryce said...

Can you put up the posters in other stores besides bookstores?

What about coffee shops or restaurants?

Thanks.
