This contest was, by far, the toughest one to judge. Not only were there more entries than for the past books, but the entries were  even more creative and enthusiastic.<\/p>\n<p>For the final cut, I chose a few prior winners who followed through on their promised promotional plans. I chose a few couples because it was a way to reward four fans with only two galleys. And the rest were chosen for their creative plans and their stated enthusiasm for my books. Of course, I&#8217;m hoping the winners will enjoy KINDRED SPIRIT enough to put that creativity and enthusiasm out there &#8212; in the real world and on the Internet.<\/p>\n<p>Without further ado, here are the FORCE 10 Fan Storm winners, sorted alphabetically:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Raquel Albano<br \/>\nTom Darpino<br \/>\nJG &#8220;Greg&#8221; Faherty<br \/>\nLisa Gile<br \/>\nMelissa Kammer<br \/>\nJoe S.
