CONTEST

Win Prizes!!

Readers write your own! The book has 365 post-modern maxims--one for every day--but we forgot about the leap year! The 366 slot is empty and will be filled by our readers' best ideas. Entries must begin with "366", be written in the imperative voice, and nicely capture an aspect of post-modern existence. Winners will receive free books, a t-shirt, stickers and a bizarre post-modern artifact (such as a Japanese lawn ornament showing Santa nailed to a cross).

To enter the contest, email your post-modern maxim & contact info to the author.
