At least for a few more minutes! It's been a crazy busy day here, full of expected electricians and unexpected colds. And the birds are still storming the castle.

But! All of that is neither here nor there.

I want to celebrate book release day of Gods & Monsters by doing a giveaway contest. No hoops, no tasks. My brain's not up to that. (if the cold medicine works? my brain doesn't.)

Anyway, I'm giving away four prizes. Three copies of Gods & Monsters, and one quasi "grand prize": 3-pk of the Shadows Inquiries so far, consisting of Sins & Shadows, Ghosts & Echoes, and Gods & Monsters.

Just drop me a comment at my lj (which since basic links are fighting me tonight) lanerobins.livejournal.com or, if you don't have an lj, drop me a line at lane@maledicte.com so I can contact you if you win. I'm going to run it for two weeks, notifying winners May 11.
