...two copies of The Winter Long!

Welcome to the first of the Twelve Days of Hogswatch. I will be starting a new giveaway every day between now and December 25th (some other winter holiday). Each giveaway will have different rules, and a different deadline, although all prizes will be mailed on December 29th, because I am bad at going to the post office (and also, still mailing shirts).

The first giveaway is for two copies of The Winter Long, the eighth October Daye adventure. This is going to be a random number drawing, because I am sleepy. So...

1. To enter, comment on this post.
2. If you are international, indicate both this and your willingness to pay postage.
3. That's it.

I will choose the winners at 1PM PST on Monday, December 15th.

Game on!

ETA: Multiple people have commented indicating that they'd like to start this series. Please, please do not begin this series with book eight. I know free stuff is awesome, and of course you can win without having read the first seven, but seriously, this book will not be half as good if you have no idea what's going on.

I'd love to get one - it would make it sooner that I'll read it. I'll read it anyway, when I can... Love Toby.

Yay!

I already have a copy, so, as per the rules posted yesterday, this is a top-level comment stating that I volunteer to pay postage for any international winner to help spread the love. Happy Hogswatch!

Edited: I'm not entering the drawing, only volunteering.

Thanks for offering this. I'd love an early copy of the new Toby book.

This is not an early copy? The Winter Long has been out since September. :)

(Apologies if this is a duplicate; I'm terrible at this, apparently.) I would love a copy! I've had the October Daye series on my to-be-read list for ages, and this would be a lovely antidote to procrastination. I'm in the U.S. (right in the middle, even).

This is book eight of the series, and I do not recommend beginning with it. Of course you can still win, but please don't start here. :(

I'd love to receive a copy. We seem to like so many of the same things, I'm certain I'll love your books. I'm in Canada and willing to pay the post.

While you can absolutely win if your number is drawn, I hugely recommend not beginning this series with book eight, which is a culmination of a lot of things that had built up over the previous seven books.

Yayz and Yayz! I am in the US, btw, but if an international entrant is chosen by the random number generatorness, I would like to finance the postage for an international winner. Sadly, I can only afford one. :D It's my Happy Hogswatch gift!

Two copies, now that's smart. One to keep safe and one to loan to friends! Am in the USA and would love to spread the joy of Toby!

[I know, I'm silly. Still gonna get a copy of my own though!]

If selected, I promise not to read it until I am caught up, 'cause that's how my OCD rolls. Shouldn't Cat Faber songs count as semi-previews, anyway?

I've only ever read the first one, but winning this would sure inspire me to get books 2-7. ;)
