Oh, come on you little bums!  Only four of yous guys CARE??????  (Including Rachel, who already has it?Rachel – I’ll get you a Breaking Rank or a Slumming.)  This hurts.  This really hurts.  Step right up.  Take a swing.  You have till – um, um – MONDAY!!  On Monday we will choose.  Dudes, this is an award-winning book often used to torture students all over the country and in Italy and Australia and Sweden and has even been loved in Pakistan.  Oh, for the love of Mike.  Anyway, here we go:

I’m doing a

GIVEAWAY!!!

My turn.  Not hand made, though.  Well, sorta.  Just not one of a kind.  

 I am going to give away a signed copy of my private printing (it’s paperback, sadly) of

 The Only Alien on the Planet.   

Same old drill: leave your name in the comments – I’d love to say, yeah, like Megs, tell me how awesome I am, but because it’s a choose a number thing (this is NOT a lottery or fringe gambling, please) it won’t make any diff what you say.  Unless you are my brother and leave something mildly abusive.  In that case, I will give your number to somebody who already has a number and double their chances.  But make sure I know how to contact you because not only am I going to give away the book – TA DA – I’m mailing it to you FREE!!!  How COOL is that?  I think next week or the week after, I’m going to be giving away a classroom set of these books, so if you know an English teacher, preferably high school or university, who would put them to good use, let them know that you can appeal for them.  Sorry I don’t have any banners or quilts or anything.  Just this.
