Day 6, Item 13: Signed Books and See Your Name in MIND GAMES

From YA author Kiersten White:

Win a signed hardcover copy of Paranormalcy AND Supernaturally, plus your name (first and last) in MIND GAMES, Kiersten's upcoming winter 2013 novel!

A note from Kiersten: "The name will be a name drop only, NOT a character in the novel. I retain veto rights. For example, you can't make up a silly name like Fanny McFannypants and expect me to use it. (Besides which, Fanny McFannypants is the MC in another one of my novels.) (Not really.) If you don't want it to be your name, I would be open to it being, say, your MC's name or your daughter's name or something fun like that. So, to sum up: Your name in my book. One chance only!

Note: This item is open to U.S. and international bidders.
