chipperWelcome to the second of the Twelve Days of Hogswatch. I will be starting a new giveaway every day between now and January 6th (the day after my birthday). Each giveaway will have different rules, and a different deadline, although all prizes will be mailed on January 9th, because I am bad at going to the post office.
This giveaway is for a shiny new copy of Velveteen vs. The Multiverse, the second volume in the adventures of Velma "Velveteen" Martinez, crankiest superheroine this side of the Mississippi. This is going to be a random number drawing with a twist, because I am silly. So...
1. To enter, comment on this post.
2. If you are international, indicate both this and your willingness to pay postage.
3. Explain your superpower. What is it? How does it work? What are your strengths and weaknesses?
I will choose the winner at 1PM PST on Monday, December 30th, by randomly selecting two heroes and deciding the outcome of a fight. (Note: "my superpower is I can do anything" means you will inevitably be defeated by Squirrel Girl. That's what she's for. Remember that in the Velveteen-verse, cunning and treachery often defeats raw strength.)
Game on!

The problem is the accompanying exhaustion; while it is not as tiring as doing all that sorting manually, I can easily knock myself flat by sorting something too large. It's also a major hunger-inducer. However, I've gotten a lot of extra grocery money by sorting cans and bottles out of my neighbors' recycling bins. It all balances out.
In a fight, I think the outcome would be entirely dependent upon my level of clever at the time, which would be inversely related to my level of hunger and exhaustion.
(I'd really really love this superpower. Especially in regards to gardening. Damn bermudagrass.)
