Thanks to all those Tara McPherson fans who entered the “I heart Tara” contest to win a copy of her latest book “Lost Constellations”. We had an overwhelming response and there was a lot of love for Tara and hope you all enjoyed reading other people’s tweets. As there were no real entry guidelines, we decided to choose one at random, and it was…

“I heart Tara Mcpherson because, she stole my heart and fed it to a jellyfish, in tentacles i now trust.” by @smallinthecity
