This is the first giveaway. It is open to all, with the caveat that if you are outside the United States, you must be willing to pay postage if you win. I am sorry about that, but I can't afford international postage right now. If that's cool with you, yay! If it's not, I really am sorry, and hopefully will win the lottery soon.
To enter, leave a comment with your location (US/non-US), and what super power you would have if you lived in Velveteen's universe. Winners will be selected via random number generator, BUT! If you don't include everything above, you cannot win.
I will randomly select a winner on Sunday, November 18th, so that I can mail the book before Thanksgiving.
Good luck! Game on!

My power would be the ability to create order from chaos (or even just garden-variety clutter and messiness) by means of invoking each item's innate knowledge of where it belongs and imbuing said items with the ability to return "home." I think that makes sense. I can see it in my head.
(That this is my ideal superpower is probably a result of the many homeward school bus rides during my childhood which I spent wishing really, really hard that my room would magically clean itself before I got home, though I am sure it also reflects my current state of being mom to a toddler-shaped hurricane and a husband who's pathologically unable to see clutter or figure out where it should go.)
