Win a free signed copy of HOME RUN FROM HEAVEN



It may be my birthday on Thursday, November 1, but I'm giving YOU a chance to win a free signed paperback copy of Home Run from Heaven.

I will be awarding six copies in all. There are two ways to win.


BUY A KINDLE VERSION AND WIN

The first way to win is to buy the Kindle version of Home Run from Heaven. The cost is just $0.99 cents. That is less than $1!! (DUH) All you have to do is read the book, and then leave a review of the book on the Amazon.com page. Once you do that, simply leave me a message on my Facebook account: https://www.facebook.com/#!/kevin.travis that you did it. I will be picking three random names as the winners.

To obtain the book and leave your review, click on the link here: http://www.amazon.com/Home-Run-from-Heaven-ebook/dp/B009R9SH0U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1350579512&sr=8-1&keywords=home+run+from+heaven

If you have already purchased the Kindle version, you are still eligible. Simply leave your review on the Amazon page at the link above, and then leave me a message on my Facebook account.

PLAY THE KEVIN TRAVIS QUIZ

The second way to win is to play the popular game show KEVIN TRAVIS QUIZ, the home version. Simply answer the questions below. You can either send your answers to my Facebook page or you can email your answers to me at: kevtrav77@yahoo.com.

These are random questions that pertain to the charmed life of Kevin Travis (that's me). The three entries with the most correct answers wins a signed book of Home Run from Heaven. If there is a tie, I will choose names at random.

I will be selecting and announcing the winners on Friday, Nov. 16.
