The Filans.net Challenges
Challenges are goals I'm hoping to achieve to get Shane & Gillian to know about the existenceof this website and to make this website more "personal". But it's something I do need your help with.
Actually, it can't do without your help. So if you're interested, continue reading!
For now I have 2 challenges:
Challenge 01 - promo card
What is it?
Well, remember the promotion cards I made months ago?
I made a new version of that which I would like to get to Shane,
over the next 2 weeks, with the book signings coming up.
How does it work?
It's a credit card sized card (7,5x5 cm / 2,95x1,97 inches), so easy to take with you in your wallet.
So what I want you to do is, if you're going to one of the signings:
1. print one of the cards below
2. get Shane to sign it (preferably addressed to the visitors in general)
3. keep it carefully
4. send it to me by regular post or scan it & email it to me
5. I'll put it on the website for everyone to download or use it as a prize for the next competition

Got that? Then get downloading & spreading the word! The more I get back, the more I can give away!
Challenge 02 - video message
What is it?
With the technology of these days everyone has a digital camera.
And one dream of mine that I've had since the start of this website
is for Shane (or Gillian) to welcome us all on TF.net. So read on to know what's the plan.
How does it work?
It's rather easy if you manage to get close to Mr. or Mrs. Filan:
1. tell them you're on a mission and would like to video a message for TF.net
2. if they agree get your camera out (if you hadn't already)
3. ask them to say something like "Hi, welcome to TheFilans.net. Thanks for visiting!" (An even longer message would be great, but they probably won't have time for that)
4. record that on video mode (with sound of course!) & send it to me via email
5. I'll put it on the website for everyone to download/see
Got that? Then get out there & try your best!
