Outskirts Press Christmas Drawing Offers Free Kindle, Nook and iPad PrizesDenver, CO (PRWEB) December 06, 2011
Outskirts Press, the fastest growing self-publishing and book marketing company, is celebrating its writers and Facebook fans with its 25 Days of Christmas contest.
The more fans that “Like” Outskirts Press’ Facebook page at http://facebook.com/outskirtspress, the better the self-publisher’s giveaway will be.
If there are 5,000 fans or less by Christmas day, Outskirts Press will have one random drawing from among all its fans to see who wins a free Amazon Kindle. If there are between 5,001 and 10,000 fans, there will be two random drawings; one for a free Amazon Kindle and one for a free Barnes & Noble Nook. If over 10,000 fans have “Liked” Outskirts Press, there will be three random drawings: one for a free Amazon Kindle; one for a free Barnes & Noble Nook; and one for a free iPad2.
“Tis better to give than to receive,” said Outskirts Press Vice President Kelly Schuknecht. “This is a way of saying Happy Holidays to our authors and fans from all of us here at Outskirts Press.”
Any of the three e-readers that are available to be drawn on Christmas Day will make a perfect gift for a lover of the penned word.
The new Amazon Kindle is a lighter, smaller and faster version of its renowned early models. It weighs only six ounces, and while it has the equal six inch screen, its body is eighteen percent smaller and fits easily into a pocket. It has a built in Wi-Fi®, has a luxuriously contrast E Ink® display that allows read for extended periods without eyestrain, and its battery holds a charge for up to one month.
The new Barnes & Noble Nook allows readers to touch, open a book, make the type bigger, look up words, organize one’s library, lend a book or shop for freshly titles. It has a breakthrough E Ink® display with a Best-Text™ function that reads just like a paper, even in the vivid sun. More than two and a half million books are available instantly with the built in Wi-Fi® and, as with the Amazon Kindle, one can acquired books from one’s public library, as well.
The Apple iPad2 is the crème de la crème of Outskirts Press 25 Days of Christmas e-reader gifts this year. It is only a third of an inch deep, weighs as little as one and a third pounds and allows users to surf the web, check e-mail, watch movies and take pictures. There are, in fact, two cameras on the device: one on the front that shows the user’s face as he or she talks via the device, another on the back that can be used to pass on a look at one’s surroundings as one talks.
And, yes, the iPad2 can also be used to download and read books, periodicals and other texts — just like the Kindle and the Nook.
Authors are being encouraged to click the “Like” button themselves for the Outskirts Press Facebook page and then to tell all their writer friends to do the same in say to increase their chances of winning.
The drawing(s) will take place and the winner(s) will be notified on Christmas Day, December 25th.
