World Book Night 2011 (a giveaway)
Well, it’s World Book Night 2011 and I have been spending the day so far logging numbers for the books I am to giveaway on http://www.bookcrossing.com and writing the numbers in the back of the books. Now I am hoping my printer actually works so I can print off the letter to go with them and then comes the delivering.
You can find out more about my plans here https://kirstyes.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/sh-wbn2011.jpgreading/wbn2011/
The book in question is Seamus Heaney’s New Selected Poems 1966 – 1987 and I have decided to give two away via this blog.
All you have to do to get a copy is to post a pick me comment (click on the little pin board to the right of the blog post title) telling me:
Why you would like to receive a copy and what you plan to do with it once you’ve read the wonderful poems it contains.
This giveaway will close one week from World Book Night ( on Sat 12th March 2011, 5pm) and I will select the two winners and contact them to make arrangements for sending the books.
Good Luck
Kirsty

Kirsty's River of Stones (aros) (Day 31 Jan 31 2011)
I’ve had to remind my mind
to be mindful, to be mindful.
I’m not sure that amongst
the mind games and mind
numbing routine that I
have always kept this in mind.
In February my challenge
is to read and escape
from the world because
paying attention to mine
might blow my mind.

Kirsty's River of Stones (aros) (Day 30 Jan 30 2011)
My day started fighting an invisible foe
Then I fought to stay awake and failed
I battled piles of laundry and dishes
With help from machines I surged ahead
Until next Sunday when the war starts again.
