Speed giveaway! For great justice!

It's almost time for Magic for Nothing, and I have three more ARCs to give away! So if you'd like to win one, just...

1. Comment here.
2. Tell the RNG why you should win.
3. Indicate if you are international, and if so,
4. Indicate your willingness to pay postage.

That's all!

Three winners will be chosen on Monday, February 27th, two by the random number generator, and one according to my whim.

Game on!

Dear RNG,

I should win because I've lost a bunch of times, and the odds suggest I might be due.

(My wife the math teacher is probably laughing at me in the next room...)

(In the US here...)

Dearest RGB, I am toiling in the harsh fields of Indiana before the corn (and sometimes soy) grows to overtake the entire land.

I work on transportation infrastructure...

...and an ARC is part of publishing's infrastructure, with a special appeal beyond what I expect to be a first-rate bookling. (You know, not quite a fully-adult book.)

I am domestically mailable, and so far have not won, FWIW.
Thanks for the chance!

Magic for Nothing

With broken rib cartilage and a death in the family, I could really use the distraction.
I am in the US, and would reinburse for US postage.

Hello!

1. Yay, hello!
2. I just read my eighth book by Seanan Mcguire, and I'm very happy about it.
3. No, I live in the US.
4. Yes, postage is cool!

Cheers
Andi

There's not really any reason that I'm more deserving than anybody else, but I've been really stressed and overworked (literally did 2 doctors' worth of work on my own in January), and would very much enjoy relaxing with a new book :)

In the US, but willing to pay postage anyway.

Dear RNG,
I don't deserve to win, but it never hurts to ask, right?

If I can't make it to the cornfields to watch Seanan win the Nebula, I think I would be mollified with winning an ARC of Magic for Nothing. ps -- I am from Muncie, Indiana, and spent more years than not within in a block or two of a corn field.

Not international.

I think I should win because, while I'm not an insomniac, my daughter is, and sometimes I need something to read to settle down after she's gotten my adrenaline pumping by running into the room at top speed at holy-crap-child-do-you-know-what-time-it-is o'clock. I'm not desperate, but it would be pretty awesome.

I'm in the US.

1. Thank you.
2. Dear RNG, I should win because I never win any rolls in World of Warcraft, haha.
3. US address and
Therefore, 4 doesn't apply ;)

Dear RNG,
It's been a long dark year and it's only February, and I could use some magic in my life.
xoxo,
TC

P.S. I am in the US and can pay postage.

Dear RNG,

I have no reason why I in particular should win, except that I really really wish to do so, and I'm hopeful of getting it just a bit before I otherwise might, maybe.

I'm not international.

Thanks,
Me

1. This is a comment.
2. I should win, because I've never even seen an ARC.
3. I'm in the USA.
4. Send it as "Media Mail".

Oooh!

O RNG, I'm figuring I should win just as much as anyone else should win, so, you know, do your wonderful stuff and let it happen as it may. :-) It's all good.

I am not international and therefore postage is not an issue just now.

Whee!

Dear RNG,
I probably don't actually DESERVE to win, but am hoping that Lady Luck doesn't know that.

Texas hasn't seceded, so still domestic.

Dear RNG: I should win because Seanan is coming to Denver (where I live) next month and I could get it signed! <3

1. Hi!
2. I should win because my wife and I ravenously devour all of your writing and make gifts of it to our friends and family.
3. Right here in the Midwest, no need for International postage.
4. If it helps we would gladly pay for regular postage if necessary.

February 26 2017, 04:05:55 UTC 4 months ago

Dear RNG, I...don't really have any particular reason why I should win, it would just be cool.
I am in the US.

Dear RNG, I should win because I'm delightful.

I'm in the US.

1. Now releasing comment!
2. I should win because I have programmed RNGs in the past.
3. I am in the USA.
4. While I am in the USA, if it is needful for me to pay postage, I will.

Dear Random Number Generator,

I should win for no better reason than that sometimes the numbers are bound to fall my way, and I have no amusing or heart-tearing reason to capture the whim of the most excellent author.

My mailing address is safely in the US.

Love,
me

RNGesus should favor me because despite all odds, I caught a Chansey during the Valentine's event in Pokemon Go and completed the NA Pokedex! (Had to even go out of province to catch a Tauros. Happy day!)

(International, will pay postage.)

Luck. Be a lady tonight!

I should win because I will give the prize to my 15 yo daughter. She loves to read and go to comic book conventions and game.

We are in the USA, so not international. 😀

Dear RNG,

I should win because Seanan's cats are awesome, & so is mine! I'm in the U. S. & can pay postage.

Thanks for doing these give-aways, Seanan!
