So, I'm in the publishing industry so the following news tidbit landed in my work email today from PW Daily:
Wait till the Midnight Hour
We knew Harry's swan song would be special, but it's going to be downright electrifying for 1700 lucky fans who will have the chance to meet J.K. Rowling and have their copy of Deathly Hallows signed at a publication party called "J.K. Rowling and the Midnight Signing." The author will make her appearance at London's Natural History Museum at the stroke of midnight on July 21. The first 500 randomly selected winners will attend Rowling's midnight reading. The subsequent signing is expected to last until dawn. Each ticket holder will receive a free copy of the book from Bloomsbury. Between May 23 and June 11, fans may apply for free tickets to the event on Bloomsbury's Web site. (http://email.publishersweekly.com/cgi-bin2/DM/y/hv1Y0HsJJb0OYa0DFf40EH)
But lest Stateside Potterphiles feel left out, Scholastic has announced a sweepstakes in which seven winners will receive the prize of free roundtrip airfare and a three-night stay for two in London, and, of course, a free copy of the bookâto attend Rowling's midnight reading/signing. U.S. winners will be selected by a random drawing and entries (open to fans under 21 years of age) must be received by June 15 either via the Web site (http://email.publishersweekly.com/cgi-bin2/DM/y/hv1Y0HsJJb0OYa0DFf50EI), or snail mail: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Sweepstakes, Scholastic Inc., 557 Broadway, New York, N.Y. 10012.
If, like me, you're over 21, better adopt to enter. :)
