EMBT AH: FBtP Blog Tour is fini!

The EMBHT AH:FBtP Blog Hop is fini! A great many connections, a goodly number of commenters, a whole pile of new friends and 7 days later. I’ve decided to ust remove the rules&regs type stuff in favor of our contest winners…

NOW for the prizes! ( I took the names of all of the commenters on Hot Sinatra Ch. 1 and put them in my fancy fedora, tossed liberally, then drew two names without looking, put one on the left for prize #1 and one on the right for prize #2)

#1) One (ePub or Kindle) copy of A Career Guide To Your Job In Hell and one (ePub or Kindle) copy of Living Dead At Zigfreidt and Roy (coming to Kindle singles this week) emailed directly to your door! (Open to International entries)

WINNER – Rhonda Tutt of Queentutt’s World of Escapism

B) One custom artisan crafted bookmark from Designs By The Divine Ms Liz placed within one paperback copy of A Career Guide To Your Job In Hell and one painted collectible from the amazing Wenchkin! (Open to residents of US/Canada)

WINNER – “Flank Sinatra”

I will be contacting these people in the AM and, in the event that they can not be located, or fail to come forward, I will re-draw accordingly on Friday, September 30.

Thanks for playing and be sure to check out our next event, The Frightful Fall Read-A-Thon, running October 3-9 (two print, and two e-Pub copies of A Career Guide To Your Job In Hell will be given away!) and stick around for the almighty evil of the COFFIN HOP – October 24-31, where I’m going to be giving away prizes EVERY MOTHERFLIPPIN’ DAY!!! Fine jewellery! DVD’s! Books! Stories! Posters! Collectibles! IT’S A SAMHAIN MIRACLE!!!

 

Who could it be now?

I write like
William Gibson

I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!

Apparently. I ran umpteen selections from Hot Sinatra, a whole raft of short stories and a few articles and reviews through this magic box of theirs… Gibson and Cory Doctorow came up over and over and over, although a few Pahlaniuks, Joyces and Vonneguts littered the results. I also ended up with one result each for Agatha Christie, Rudyard Kipling and Robert Louis Stevenson. Go figure.

I’m just not sure whether that puts me in good company, or suggests rampant Multiple Personality Disorder.
