My first contest here on freestylemind has been a huge success. So many people have joined and I’m glad I did it. Now it’s time to draw conclusions and announce the winners.
What people want
Something that’s very interesting to look at is what books most people wanted to receive. Below is the top ten list:
The winners
The following are all the winners for the contest. I’ll be contacting each of you today or tomorrow. If for any reason some of you will not be able to receive the book, I’ll pick another winner from the list.
I’ll make another contest soon, so even if you didn’t win, there’ll be other opportunities in the future.
