Welcome to Day Two of Subscriberthon 2014. It works like this: anyone who subscribes, renews or donates to Overland goes into the draw for the following daily prizes – and is also eligible for the major prizes (see below). This year, you can also sign up for an auto-renewing subscription, which means you’ll always be eligible to win at Subscriberthon.
We run the Subcriberthon because Overland depends on its community. If you want to keep a progressive journal of ideas doing what it does, take out a subscription today.
