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 do not deserve to win. This isn't false modesty: I really do not. I landed myself unexpectedly in the hospital for several nights this week because I took on a baking potato, and the potato won.

It turns out that you're supposed to puncture the potato without puncturing your own hand. This is hard-won knowledge, as is the surprising fact that an infected tendon sheath can lead to necrosis of the flesh and amputation of the affected limb. Hence into the hospital I went for emergency surgery, heavy duty IV antibiotics and monitoring blood work that required getting stuck over and over by well-meaning techs. Potato, thy revenge is complete.

I live in the US.

1. I am commenting.
2. Like the number generator, I am quite random. It should favor me...randomly.
3. Domestic.
4. But would still be willing to pay postage.

Hello! I am a stateside US resident, and I should win because after months and months of struggling unsuccessfully, I am finally about to start a new job tomorrow, and I need something special to help me celebrate! This would do the trick nicely. ;)

Why should I win? LET ME TELL YOU!

I should win because I met Seanan at NY Comic Con and fangirled all over her ("OMG YOU'RE MY FAVORITE AUTHOR!!!") and I got an awesome picture with her (see below)! Also, in the US here.

Cara and Seanan at NY Comic Con. Cara is sitting in her scooter wearing an original Star Trek Uhura style dress, and Seanan is leaning down and smiling.

Dear RNG,

I think I should win because Halloween isn't coming for another 8 months and I need my monster fix.

In the US here.

RNG fates, I've been a good girl and I'm trying new things and trying to advance myself professionally and be productive personally and books are the best sort of escape from productivity and life and working hard.

To the esteemed RNG: I should win because I'm awaiting the results of my tenure review, and sweating bullets goes down much more easily when you have a good book to take you to another world for awhile.

Pittsburgh-based, but I think you knew that.

Daer RNG -

I'd love an ARC. I don't have any Seanan ARCs. Please pick me!

Not international. I deserve a treat, because I am toiling away in the Girl Scout cookie booth trenches.

I've been job-hunting for a year with no luck, it would be nice to be lucky in something.

I'm in the US.

I should win because I have hooked my husband and a crazy number of my friends on this series and your Toby Daye series. And I am in the US and will pay shipping.

Dear RNG,

I should win because 9785274894 rocks.

Also, I have yet to read anything from Seanan that wasn't wonderful, so I want more.

1. *typing comment*
2. It's my 30th birthday on Feb 28th and my idea of celebrating involves curling up with my cats and good books and since seanan McGuire (and Mira Grant) write fabulous books, they are always in my pile. Mmm, physical books smell so good.
3. International (Northern Ireland)
4. Happy to pay postage.

Dear RNG,

I acknowledge that you are random, and that I have just as equal odds of being selected as any other entrant. Assuming that the RNG is properly programmed and not weighted, of course. Also, it would be a great moment of spiffyness in a February that has lacked such moments.

I am not international, but I would pay postage anyway should I win.

For justice, and thank you Seanan!

RNG, I should win because I'm in the US and will not cancel my Amazon order even if I win.

1. Comment here. I love the series, I would love to read the book early.
2. Tell the RNG why you should win. Because I have the largest population counts of quail in my yard, they are huuuggge.
3. Indicate if you are international, and if so, sadly, I am domestic. I would rather be somewhere else though.
4. Indicate your willingness to pay postage. even for domestic.

I'm not I should win, but I don't have a birthday this year and this would be an awesome (not) birthday gift for me. I'm domestic.

Pick me!a

Hi, haven't won anything for a while, so i suppose that's why i should win. Not international.

Dear RNG, I am a teacher, and it is February. Kids go crazy in February and March, and the next holiday seems a very long time away...
I am international, and willing to pay postage.

Thank you!

I should win because I read words good. Even big words, tremendous words. You will never see anyone read all of the words in your book as good as I do, believe me.
I live in Virginia, so I wouldn't need extra postage, but if I did it would be the greatest, most tremendous postage you have ever seen.
