Intro

I'm Brandon Sneed. I wrote the book The Edge of Legend, I'm a journalist for GQ, ESPN The Magazine, and ESPN.com, and I edit HeyGoodCall.com

I live for great stories—finding them, telling them, living them. This is a running log of all that. It's a great life. (Read this, my short take on why stories are all that matter.)

And the winners are....

Yes! You won!On Friday we held a really fun promo and contest:

Everyone who ordered a copy on Friday through EdgeOfLegend.com got it signed by me.

One of those orders will be completely refunded, picked randomly.

Another of those orders, also picked randomly, got the book signed also by Ant Atkinson himself.

Tons of you all placed your orders on Friday, which is awesome--and which means that as soon as I get done posting this and a couple other blogs I want to get up this morning, I'm going to have a busy day of writing my own name ahead of me. Couldn't be happier!

Anyway, without further ado, I hereby announce the winners of the first-ever Free Stuff Friday contest here at BrandonSneed.com:

Kelsey Sledge won the free copy.

Melissa Thurber won the copy signed by Ant.

Melissa went with an interesting strategy, one I should have thought to suggest: she ordered 10 copies, and so we decided well heck, she deserves her name to be in the drawing 10 times. Worked out for her, I'd say. :)

So, congratulations to Kelsey and Melissa! 

As for all the rest of you folks, stick around. Today, BS.com has a new Awesome People Series entry coming today, a new post coming about a valuable lesson I recently learned as a freelancer, and (hopefully!) a new entry in The Lighthouse Project.

Feeling ambitious today. Let's start this week off right!

See you around.

- Brandon
