With help from my tech-savy and generally awesome big brother, I've set up a Kristopher Reisz mailing list. You can subscribe by into the little box over here.

First and foremost, I promise to keep announcements to a minimum. Jabber about my personal life and nude pictures of Walt Whitman, I'm restricting to my blog. I'll only use the mailing list when I have a book or something coming out you guys might want to know about.

Second, you can win books! Everybody who signs up between now and Sunday, Jan. 10th will be entered into a drawing to win one of three prizes. I originally meant to run this contest back around Halloween, which is why all the books are horror-related. But they're three great books no matter what season it is:

A copy of Giving Up the Ghost signed by Megan Crewe

A copy of the anthology Harlan County Horrors signed by editor Mari Adkins and seven of the authors

A copy of The Mysterious Flame signed by Orrin Grey (This hand-assembled chapbook was limited to 100 signed copies and is now out of print.)

So that's the deal--sign up below, get occasional updates on what I'm up to, and maybe win something cool. I've got to build my multimedia empire somehow, guys, and it's either this or leak a sex tape. (Please don't make me to leak a sex tape.)
