I agree, it's a great idea! But what about those who don't have English names?

Do we still have a chance to win, even if out first name is already in the first book???

Could I post a video, but just put it as private and share it with you from there?! I would really like to be in this contest, but I don't want myself to be on the internet, like so many others :(

i really like this contest, but i really, really, cant make a video, so can i give you a written entry instead? also, like eugenia said, my name isnt from the english language-or atleast isnt ordinary in the american culture- but its not hard to pronounce or long or anything. just 5 letters. okay im starting to ramble so im done.

Hey Kiera!

Love love love love The Selection, and can't wait for The Elite! This contest sounds awesome, but i, too, can't make a video. :( But I think my name, Georgia, would be perfect for your books (America, Georgia, get it?).

I'm not comfortable giving my last name, so in the crazy-amazing event you do decide to use my name, you can just use any last name your heart desires. :)

Thanks!

I have the same problem! D: I can't post stuff on the internet... Is there some way I could do it privately? Also, how exactly do you do videos? Like, do you just get a video camera and tape yourself, then upload it, and... then what? It would be great if we could get some info ;) Annnnnd I don't know if I could put my last name on the internet. Hahaha, a book? SURE! Internet? Uhhh not so sure :D haha Anyway, my name is Victoria Augustine (last name anomynous:) and I think it would be the COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLEST thing in the WORLD to win. Your books are very well-written and are so awesome!!!!! You said we had till October 31st to submit them, right? Well, we'll see.... =) Thanks so much!! :D So excited!

I really want to do this but I just got the book on Halloween. Could you possibly extend the due date just a little? I have the perfect idea. 😫I'm just so sad I didn't know until today about the contest.

I just finished your book around 10 minutes ago, and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. I wish I could make a video, is there anyway you could extend the deadline at all?? I would be so honored to make one and to let the author of my favorite book I have read this year see it. Having my name in your books would be priceless. Thank you so much!!:)
