Giveaways
You can enter today to win one of two great books: A hardcover edition of Where the Wild Things Are, or a now out of print copy of H.P. Lovecraft: The Fiction. As you can see from how expensive the one used copy is, those of us who bought it at the time for $12 are quite happy.
Entering your name for the drawing to win one of the two books is easy: Write in the comments section and tell us what your favorite scary monster from any kind of scary books/movies is (vampire, werewolf, zombie, dementor, etc.), and why.
There is a way to increase your chances of winning: Advertise either or both of my books, Harry Potter & Imagination or Hog’s Head Conversations on your Facebook, Twitter, blog, or any other means of internet communication that you use. Please use the Amazon.com link for each. For every use of media, your name gets entered one more time. So, if you tell us your favorite scary monster and advertise one of my books on Facebook and Twitter, your name has been entered three times. If you advertise both books at the same places, your name has been entered a total of 5 times. You see how quickly you can increase your chances of winning! Make sure you come back here and tell me in the comments what book(s) you advertised and where, or I won’t know you did it! Here are the links to use:
- Harry Potter & Imagination: http://www.amazon.com/Harry-Potter-Imagination-Between-Worlds/dp/0982238517/
- Hog’s Head Conversations: http://www.amazon.com/Hogs-Head-Conversations-Essays-Potter/dp/0982238584/
You have until midnight (EST) on Friday, November 6th. Members of the Blogengamot are not eligible for entering. Good luck!
PubCast #71 to be released later today.

Time for another opportunity to win my book, Harry Potter & Imagination: The Way Between Two Worlds. This is the same contest as last time, with slightly different rules, and you’re promoting a different link this time. Today, the book went up at Amazon.com with book cover image and all. This is the link you’ll be promoting. (If you have your own Amazon Affiliates account, feel free to use your own code. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, just use the link as I’ve given it.)
Here are the rules:
Promote the Amazon.com page for Harry Potter & Imagination: The Way Between Two Worlds. Here are several ways to do that:
- Publish the link on your blog.
- Share the post on Twitter, Plurk, Facebook, MySpace, or anywhere else you can think of.
- Email your friends.
- Get a megaphone and shout the URL around your neighborhood.
- Get primo tickets for a football game this weekend, and bring a big sign that will end up on TV.
- Harry Potter fansite forums and blog comments sections.
- Any other creative way you can think of.
- For more examples, see the comments from the last contest.
Once you’ve shared the Amazon.com page, come back here and tell us you did so, and which method you chose, in the comments. Here’s the fun part: Your name gets entered each time you share the post in one way or another. To add even more incentive Facebook counts for 2 shares (your name gets put in twice).
Feel free to ask questions in the comments or by E-owl.
Deadline for entry is midnight EST on Friday, December 19. Winner will be announced Saturday.
Note: Please be sure you’re sharing the right page. It’s the one linked here, not the present post that you are reading. But tell us you shared it in the comments for this post.

The winner of the free copy of Harry Potter & Imagination is Arka!
Well done, Arka. It definitely paid to submit the link to so many different sources. Send me an E-Owl and I’ll make sure you get your autographed copy when it’s available.
Everyone else: Stay tuned. Another opportunity approaches.
