December Giveaway

I still seem to be trying to catch up with life post-craft-fair (how do people do multiple fairs several times a year?), and can't think of a good giveway for this month, so, in the spirit of the biggest commercial holiday of the year, and the tradition of leaving offerings for the fairies (or something), I've decided to give everyone something this month. Happy Holidays (or insert preferred greeting here)!

So from now until the end of the year, both my short YA fantasy novels are free to anyone who uses the appropriate code on Smashwords (you'll find formats for all e-readers and computers). So download one, the other, or both, and if you like it how about leaving a review? (but don't feel obligated to leave a review--please download and read anyway).

November Giveaway: Do You Love Books?

Eep! I didn't realize how late I was getting this posted. But here is the prize for this month's giveaway:

It's 9 by 19 inches, letterpress printed from wood type and a linocut in two colours. By me. And if it hasn't sold, I'll throw in the last copy of this card (which I will eventually reprint, should you wish to buy one):

It can't remember the size off the top of my head, but it's about 4 by 6 inches or somewhere in that vicinity. Also letterpress printed, from hand-set metal type and an old printer's cut. (Little trivia aside: the quote is actually, "So many books, so little time." I couldn't find a period in the typecase, so I had to change it to use a comma instead.)

And finally, the winner gets a digital copy of either The Coming of the Fairies or Milk Sister, both of which have books as important items in their stories (and so does the novel I'm working on now, come to think of it).

Leave a comment to enter, and make sure I'll be able to contact you.

October Winner

So the winner of October's giveaway is (as decided by Random.org):

Jarreds1

Yaaaaay! Shoot me an email with your mailing address and I'll see if I can get your prize in the mail in a more timely manner than I got this giveaway wrapped up.

And stay tuned for November's giveaway. 

October Giveaway: Quoth the Raven

I didn't get this month's giveaway up right away, because I was trying to decide what the prize should be. But now I've decided.

The winner gets:

• A matching set of "Quoth the Raven" and "Nevermore" lithographs. Before you get too excited, these are proofs on Mayfair paper, not final prints on heavy rag, so they're not as archival, though they still look nice. I'd love to give away a set of editioned prints, but I only have three sets, and they're all earmarked for an artist's book. They're about 8 by 10.5 inches.
• An ebook copy of a Nic Silver spooky Hallowe'en story I haven't written yet. It may be called "A Pearl Beyond Price." Or it might not.
• Some other little goodies that may or may not include letterpress postcards, magnets with art on, little books, etc.

So leave a comment and get your name in. You have until Hallowe'en, but don't leave it too late.

Also, there's a new coupon code for a free short story on my Facebook page. This time it's "Sealskin," a selkie story.

September's Winner Is . . .

The winner of my September giveaway--a choice of copper pendant, choice of ebook, and some other thing(s) I choose as I pack the prize for mailing--is . . .

Jen!

Jen, if you're reading this, please leave a comment or email me at anagramforink at gmail dot com with a way to get in touch with you so I can get your address and send you a coupon code for whichever ebook you'd like (see them all on Smashwords).

I'll post a new giveaway soon, so if you didn't win, I hope you'll come back and try again (and if you did win, you're still welcome to enter again). Also, you can enter from anywhere in the world (unless you live somewhere Canada Post doesn't deliver, in which case you can enter, but I won't be able to mail your prize).

Thanks to Random.org for choosing a winner.

September Giveaway: Pretty, Shiny Thing Plus Secret, Mysterious Extra Thing

OK, it's time for my September giveaway! This month I'm going to send a copper pendant to one lucky winner, plus their choice of any story or novel of mine from Smashwords, and some other mysterious item I will decide on at the last possible minute.

The winner can choose an OsteoSophy animal skull pendant, either one I've already made, or a custom one of their choice (or they can opt to have a bracelet or brooch or keychain instead).

See more of these in my Etsy shop.

 OR

The winner may choose a copper feather pendant instead -- again, either an existing one, or a custom-made one. These are larger than the skulls and made from thinner copper.

More are currently in my other Etsy shop (it made sense at the time).

To enter, just comment on this post with your choice of pendant--tell me which you'd like and what animal or bird. Tweets and Facebook posts and the like are much appreciated, too, but not required.

August's Winner Is . . .

Rad Hall

who chose Milk Sister as the prize ebook. Yayyyyyyy! (insert Kermit the Frog arm-waving here)

Soon, a nautilus mini-print and some other prize I still haven't decided on will be on their way to their new home. 

Now I have to post a new giveaway. Hmmmm . . . Maybe a copper OsteoSophy necklace? Another print? If I don't post it later today, I will tomorrow for sure.

Thanks to Random.org for picking a winner for me.
