You are more than welcome to hold up books you've written.
The more books you hold up at once, the higher up the list I'll place you.
rules:
1) Books all face forward
2) Only one person holding
3) No photo shop
4) No solid supports (shelves, metal frame etc)
Competition closed - prizes awarded - entries still welcome.
Remember, quality counts as much as quantity. Want to show off your new book? Go for it.
("Little Girl" Jones wins a copy of Stone Goblins that I bought twice by mistake)
(Benjamin wins a fantasy book - for quantity - I'll send him a list of options!)
(Vivianne wins a Thorns mug - for pioneering the leg method and a great photo)

Vivianne (16, but so well displayed!)
Laura (again) (17 apparently - I can only recognise Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, but given that my sources (Laura) tell me Laura is five foot nothing it's a fine effort! Ideally though we should see most of each book!)

Love the picture with the FY mangas, but I would have thought that a couch would definitely have counted as a "solid support". Would have made more sense for you to have said that everyone had to stand up.
