Title: I'm super lucky when it comes to this guy

I just got home and found the ARC for Way of Kings sitting in my bedroom! And I got to be a Stormleader! /headexplosions

Who's organizing Stormleaders? Because it isn't 17th Shard, so I'll need to give whoever it is an email :P

Noting that it is wrong to covert, I proceed to try and think about something else....

He meant a Storm Leader for THE GATHERING STORM. They may do something again for the TOWERS OF MIDNIGHT tour, but there's nothing planned for the THE WAY OF KINGS tour.

The wise Peter is correct.

Woo, hey, I shouldn't post sleep deprived.

Still, good job getting an ARC :D

I've been searching and have no idea what contest I won to get the ARC. Cool.

The same thing happened to me yesterday. I got home and my wife said, "You got a book in the mail." I hadn't ordered anything recently so I was confused, but it was a TWoK ARC! I've entered so many contests I don't know which it was for, but it was sent from Tor.

Thanks to Tor and Brandon -

PS. I'll be purchasing the audiobook (my preferred method of reading since my eyes aren't the best) on release date - Michael Kramer and Kate Reading are the best!

One of the people who won the Stormblessed.com giveaway also won the Goodreads giveaway. Now that's luck. I told him to decline one so it can go to someone else.
