Let's go to Australia and poke horrible things with a stick for fun!

It's time for my first Pocket Apocalypse giveaway! Hooray! This giveaway is going to be US addresses only; I'm still mailing T-shirts, and my post office workers are starting to mysteriously go on break when I show up, because of all the international packages. I know it's not fair, but I can't add more customs forms to the pile or they're going to close completely.

I will do open-to-international giveaways before the book is released, and I'm hoping to clear out more of the pending packages in the next week or so.

So, the rules for this one:

1. Leave a comment.
2. Indicate that you have a US address I can ship to. (You don't have to live in the US. You just have to have a US address.)
3. Name your favorite cryptid and why.

I will use the RNG to choose three winners on Tuesday, January 27th. But there's a twist! Only one person can win for each cryptid. So be honest! Name your favorite! Just be aware that the odds are lower for the Aeslin mice than for, say, the swamp bromeliads.

The field guide is here, if you need some help.

Game on!

1) I just created a LiveJournal account for the sole purpose of participating in this giveaway. It is rare for me to venture outside of my comfort zone, let alone to create accounts on sites.

2) I've got a US address. Yay!

3) Favorite is.... the Madhura, just barely beating out Cuckoos (specifically Sarah, because I adore how she learned ethics from Star Trek, which I'd just started watching when I picked up your books for the first time). I love them because they're wonderful and amazing (and the grown-ups can defy and identify Cuckoos), they're not fighters, and they bake delicious things. I'm trying to teach myself to bake and cook (not very well, so far, maybe passable), and I love sweets, and it makes me happy to find there's a cryptid that is best known for baking.
