'Lepers and Mannequins' Surprise Giveaway

I’m giving away five copies of my (mock) novel, Lepers and Mannequins—recently published by Eraserhead Press as part of the 2011 New Bizarro Author Series—, to the first five people (# of copies available listed below) to leave a comment on this post. After leaving a comment, please send your snail-mail spot to ericbeeny[at]gmail.com.

Here is a grainy digital photo of me being surprised during this surprise giveaway:

If you like the book, please pressure your friend(s) to purchase one-to-several copies from Amazon, Powell’s or Barnes & Noble. Simply lay your head on your friend(s')'s chest(s), listen to your friend(s')'s heartbeat(s), stroke your friend(s')'s hair with the hand of a severed mannequin arm, whisper, "You read that book about the lepers? It's kind of okay."

You and your friend(s) can also rate Lepers and Mannequins on Goodreads, along with some other books I've written. (Feel free to pressure your friend[s] to buy my other books, and/or read some e-books I wrote, too (Milk Like a Melted Ghost, The Dying Bloom, etc.), by using the same mildly disturbing/intrusive sincerity tactic outlined above...).

More promotional giveaways to come. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration, and happy new year...

Copies remaining: Less Than Zero...
