A LOCAL HABITATION ARC giveaway #2!

It's time to get ready for the second A Local Habitation ARC giveaway of the season! Yaaaay! Now that we've all flailed around like Muppets on an electrified floor for a few minutes, here's the way this particular giveaway is going to work:

1. Get a camera.
2. Get a copy of Rosemary and Rue.
3. Get a pet.
4. Combine.

This contest, originally suggested by The Agent, is simple: take pictures of your pets (or the pets of someone else you know) hanging out with a copy of Rosemary and Rue, and submit them here. All pets are eligible. Cats, dogs, pythons, spiny African flower mantises, whatever you have and trust with your book, they're all invited to this party.

Be creative. Be dramatic. Have fun. Do not allow your Burmese python to swallow your book (it would be bad for the snake). Post your pictures here; after Thanksgiving, we'll open to voting, and winners will be selected. Winner #1 will get their choice of an ARC of A Local Habitation or a signed cover flat of A Local Habitation. Winner #2 will get whatever winner #1 didn't select, that being the way we roll around here.

Let me know if you have any questions, and game on!

All right, here are my entries. I hope three is ok, I have to keep the kids apart. I like taking pictures, I like my silly pets, and I like books. But putting them together was far harder than I thought. I have done photoshoots with the critters before, but never with a book.

Nano Reads
Nano helps me read. This is pretty standard around here.
Nano and Toby
I think Nano is trying to take Toby somewhere. Or perhaps just the whole book.


The dog couldn't figure out what I wanted and was upset the whole time and the bird only wanted to sit on my hand or run right up to the camera. Alas.
