I have five uncorrected galleys to use for my promotional efforts for the upcoming novel. If I'd been smarter, I would have asked (and paid) for 20, but I didn't. What should I do with them? Please only click five choices, if you can bear to restrain yourself.
Yeah, I love NPR.
I have 5 Advanced Reader Editions of Child of Fire. What should I do with them?

When you get the REAL books, do the same thing.
Definitely send one in to NPR!
I vote to give one away in each blog/journal via contest or random comment.
Also, if you save two copies for yourself, you can loan one out to a few different reviewers and get it back without messing up your good copy. (I've known an author or two to do that)
Thanks!
