Book Giveaway: "Secrets to Contacting Celebrities & Public Figures"
Today’s featured giveaway in Jane’s September Contest Slam is close to my heart, because I collect autographs in my spare time. Ok, so I haven’t exactly had any spare time in the past few years, but it’s a cool hobby, because you can always pick it up again at any time.
Author Jordan McAuley sent me five copies of his book, “Secrets to Contacting Celebrities & Public Figures.” It’s an awesome guide full of insider tips, tricks, and techniques for reaching the stars — in person, online, and by mail. The book has received high praise from Autograph Magazine, calling it “indispensable!”
Jordan is the founder and president of Contact Any Celebrity, located in West Hollywood, California.
THE GIVEAWAY: I have FIVE copies of “Secrets to Contacting Celebrities & Public Figures” to give away. To enter the contest, simply leave a comment on this post by midnight on Saturday, Sept. 6, 2008. Be sure to include a valid email address. Winners will be drawn randomly. I’ll email the winners for their snail-mail address after the contest ends. Good luck!

I have always wondered if you are supposed to contact the celebrity’s publicist or agent or if they can be contacted directly, so hopefully this book can advise me on this.

I’ve wanted a copy of this book ever since I first heard about it a few weeks ago. I remember writing to 90210 characters all the time, I even made the magnets once. They would always send you a 90210 postcard. I wrote to Drew Barrymore once, she never wrote back. Thanks for this giveaway, would love to get a hold of the new cast of 90210!
