CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT giveaway! For great justice!

The ARCs of Chimes at Midnight arrived last night, and gosh and golly, they are amazing! So pretty. So real and in my hands. I am overcome with delight. And naturally, I am already starting to go "oh jeez get them out of my house, there are so many of them, get them out of my house."

So...

ARC giveaway! This first dance with the free stuff wolves will be the ART CHALLENGE. Post your Toby-inspired art (drawing, painting, manipulated photo, cosplay, animated .gif rendered funny by context, jewelry, anything that is visual and artsy) on this entry, or post links if your material is hosted elsewhere, and indicate whether you are in the US or international (and if international, whether you will pay postage).

On May 28th, having returned from the wilds of Disney World, I will select two winners: one via our old friend, the RNG, and one by going "that one is my favorite, it should have a book."

Game on!

I made this temari based on the first description of Luna's true appearance in An Artificial Night:

LunaRoseGarden1

The longer blog post about it is here: Temari: Luna of the Roses. Freshly posted, as I just finished the ball yesterday. Hope you like it! As I said in the post, it was a design I had been intending to do for a while, so this was a good push to finish it.

I am in the US!

Holy shit that's gorgeous.

Your work just gets better.

Yay! I'm so glad you like it. I have vague ideas about a whole series of temari based on the Toby books. I especially want to do Lily, but I haven't quite come up with the perfect thing yet.

All of them would be lovely and elegant, except for Toby's, which would be a puddle of red string and a post-it that said "WELL YOU TRIED."

Poor Toby...

I did consider adding a drop of "blood" to one of the thorns. I may still have to do that.
