A lot of people like to sign up for PublishersMarketplace.com membership early in the year, so as an experiment we left our "anniversary" promotion code valid for longer than usual -- but the end is coming. You have until January 15 to use the code fifteen when enrolling, to get your first full month of PM membership for $15 (a $10 savings from the standard price).
