Posted on 04. Nov, 2009 by loswhit in Books

Picture 2Picture 3

I just got 4 free books.
They are 2 copies of 2 of my favorite books published this year.
Problem is…I own them already.
The Divine Commodity and The Monkey And The Fish
I have 2 copies each.
So I’m feeling generous.
I’m gonna give them to you.
Just a fun 3 hour contest for my West Coast homies or those of you up late in the ATL.
I’ll give them away at midnight San Diego time.

1. Tweet this: My homie @loswhit wants 2 giv me 2 of his favorite books. Drop him a line hre http://tinyurl.com/yznncgn & U cn win 2.
2. Comment on this post and let me know your twitter name so I can make sure you are not a filthy, sinful, lying, wretched human.

I’ll choose a winner at midnight.
That’s if I make it till midnight.
And if I don’t.
Then you’ll have till I wake up.

This is so ghetto gangsta giveaway…
Go.
Los

    Im one of shelly Moore’s friends. My husband and I just stepped down from youth ministry ( he was the youth pastor) in hopes of starting our dream of planting a church. It was tough. We are living with an awesome family in Charlotte Nc who are letting us stay rent free. Its our first year in marriage and its also a good time of growth with us Personly and with God.
    You should check out the ministry we were doing and are going to continue to do wherever we go.
    http://www.theVonline.net
    but I wrote you because WE WOULD LOVE THOSE BOOKS. My husband has been wanting to read the divine commodoty and me the monkey and the fish. And then we can pass them on when we are done to someone else who could use them
