Can't Stand the Heat ARCs!!!
Got my box of Advanced Reading Copies (ARCs) for Can't Stand the Heat last night, and screamed the house down. I'm so happy with them! They are gorgeous, full color covers and inside--omg, inside, it looks like a REAL BOOK! Thrills and chills over here today. Which is great, because the adrenaline from this will propel me through the rest of my page proofs. Ugh!
What are some ways you've heard of/thought of for using ARC's? I know some people give them away as contest prizes, and a portion of them should go to reviewers and booksellers, although my publisher is handling a lot of that. Anything else that's innovative and fun?
That's a box full of awesome right there! I say use them for contests and for early promo!

How exciting!!!
I've heard mailing them to friends in Canada is a fabulous idea. ;-)

Give them to people who will talk you up in their blogs and on twitter. You want the early excitement and hype that this book deserves. Woo hoo!

They are absolutely gorgeous! Congratulations!
I sent most of my ARCs to bloggers and reviewers. :)
