RELEASE THE KRAKEN!...giving away an ARC.

Who wants to win an ARC of One Salt Sea? Good. I'm going to make it easy on you, because I'm feeling mellow that way. To enter...

1. Comment on this entry. Be sure you're commenting on the entry, not on someone else's comment; only comments left on the actual entry will be eligible.
2. Tell me one thing you think will happen (or hope will happen) in One Salt Sea. You don't have to be serious! Make something up if it amuses you. I love me some silliness.
3. Wait.

I will choose a winner, using our old friend, Random Number Generator, on Monday, August 1st. So yes, this is a very short contest, and you should get in while the getting is good.

Game on!

Toby will be aghast that the TARDIS doesn't have a coffee maker on board and crash it into the sea near a large cruise ship so she can get her caffiene fix!

Commetnting on this post as I would like an ARC to take my mind off my tooth extraction.

We get lots and lots and lots more of Tybalt. He is yummy. ;)

Toby will discover the joys of iced coffee, which I am sipping now.

I would like to see Toby, the Luidaeg and Tybalt have a dance off.

In a sudden & shocking twist, Toby will have to battle mer-zombies (zombaids?) in the ocean. Tybalt can't help (cats can't swim), and when Connor tries to rescue her, he gets bitten and becomes a selkie zombie (zombkie?).

Can't wait to read this! Zombies for the win!

Connor will save Tybalt from drowning.

I want to read a tentacled-sea creature say, "Get it while the getting's good."

Hmmm, let's see.

What might happen is that Toby has to deal with Robot Overlords and finds the Tardis that was repossessed from the 11th Doctor.

Who is now a zombie.

I really want Connor to marry the regent of Saltmist. Or something, someone. ANYone who isn't Toby. Also, and more so, ME WAN BOOKIE!

I think that Tybalt is going to give birth to kittens. Not sire kittens. Give birth to them. And it will still be made of sexy.

Toby walks to the beach, thoughtful, before pulling the vial out of her pocket. With a shrug, she thinks that warning couldn't have been serious, then tosses the grain of Pure Salt into the waters.

Within moments, 70% of the Earth's surface is covered in bouillabaisse.

Quentin and Toby go to a hockey game.

Or so I devoutly hope.

I so cannot compete with these awesome suggestions. I think Toby fans are fantastic. XD


I want to see Tybalt do ANYTHING in those nice leather pants. :D
And smooch Toby.
And then dunk her in the ocean.

Mi-Go wants to know more about the kitty fae, too. She's far too interested, and I'm starting to worry a little.

I also think Luidaeg should have some sort of cthulhian-looking sea monster... as a pet, or as an enemy, or something.

Tentacles and wings! Unspeakable horror! Loved by geeks everywhere!

We are introduced to a fae named June. Or someone with another Shakespeare name.

Toby will somehow be forced to dance ballet in front of the Court. And to do it well. And she does.

My guess is we get some quality time with the Seahag--or if not, the title of the book is a horrible tease!

Toby will somehow have to prevent the world from being overrun by evil squid babies. The Luidaeg has sushi after that. We also meet Cthulhu, who not-so-secretly has had the hots for the Luidaeg for a gazillion years and everyone just sort-of stares.

Toby will bond with Goldengreen's underhill, to the point that it ensures all coffee pots are full of piping hot java at all times.

Tybalt will wear leather pants. Toby will drool (if only inside her head).

I hope Toby and what's-his-name, the selkie, have fakeout-makeouts. (You know, where you are skulking somewhere you shouldn't be and hoshit, guard dudes! Quick, make out to look like you were just being stupid lovebirds!)

Toby and Tybalt get together and then toby gives up coffee for earl grey tea (with cream of course!)

ladymurmur

July 30 2011, 00:08:05 UTC 5 years ago

I want to see Tybalt, soaked in seawater, totally miffed at the affront to his dignity, yet unable to truly complain because somehow it was his own fault/action/choice that landed him (or would that be watered him?) in this condition.

I think--and I would really, really like to be right on this one--we'll get to see someone (coughTYBALTcough) do something about the situation. I have the sneaking suspicion Connor's going to get in first, but we'll see.
