START HERE Vol. 2Here at Riot Central, we’re entering the home stretch of the Kickstarter campaign to publish the second book in our START HERE series, designed to help you read your way into authors you’ve always wanted to try but haven’t, because you didn’t know where to start.

Our mission is to make cool things with and for the Book Riot community, and we want you, our awesome readers, to have a hand in creating START HERE, Vol. 2. Last week, we invited you to submit your own chapters, and there were a bunch of knock-out entries. Y’all know your stuff!

We’ve narrowed the submissions down to these four. The winner will receive $50 to their favorite bookstore and will be considered for inclusion in START HERE, Vol. 2 when it’s published. Love the idea? Back START HERE, Vol. 2 on Kickstarter and vote for your favorite write-in finalist.

The winner of the Write-In Giveaway will be the one whose entry reposted on BookRiot.com gets the most Facebook “likes” by 11:59PM EDT, Wednesday, May 22, 2013. The ONLY way to vote is to click the Facebook “Like” just above the text of your favorite finalist’s post on BookRiot.com.
