* How would you like to be a character in a Ridley Pearson novel?
To see your name in print for eternity?

Well, this is your chance!

All you have to do is purchase a copy of Parallel Lies between July 2 and July 7 and we will enter your name in a drawing to have YOUR name in the next Ridley Pearson novel. Your name will be entered for every copy you purchase.

For the past several years we’ve only offered this "name in a novel" to non-profit organizations as a fund raising technique. Those efforts have established a value for each "naming a character" of between $3-5,000 dollars! This opportunity is available to you, FOR FREE, simply by your buying a copy of Parallel Lies on these dates: July 2 through July 7.

• E-mail us the name of the store (or on-line store), the day you bought it, and how many copies, we’ll take it on good faith and enter you in the drawing. That’s all there is to it. If you talk a friend into buying the book that same week, we’ll enter you or your friend again.
  
  
• If a lot of readers participate in this, we’ll make the same offer available next year, and make it a tradition. Please don’t violate the good faith agreement and send us bogus entries! It’ll ruin it for future years.
  
  
• NOTE: IF YOU HAVE ORDERED the novel ahead of publication, those orders qualify to enter you in the drawing! Send us an e-mail of about when, and which store or on-line store you used!
  

Don’t forget these dates: July 2 – 7, for this once in a lifetime chance!
