manifesta | 3W4D Book Giveaway Official Entry Post!

ETA: The entry deadline has officially passed. Thank you everyone for participating, and I'll announce the winners ASAP!

It's been 3 weeks, and the moment you've been patiently waiting for has arrived!

Here's how it's gonna go down: As of today, Friday, May 14th, this post is open to anyone, anywhere*, to enter the giveaway. It will remain open for entries until 11:59PM PST on Monday the 17th. After that I will draw 2 winners at random and announce them in a different post. I will then ask them to email or PM me with their address information, which I will never ever distribute, etc. etc.

As a refresher, here are the rules.

The books I've analyzed are:
#1: The Drowning City by Amanda Downum
#2: Skin Game by Ava Gray
#3: Hawkspar by Holly Lisle
#4: Bloody Jack by L.A. Meyer

In your comment, you should have either:

1 link to a 3W4D post you made exclusively to DW for the festival
OR
5 links to comments you made on 3W4D posts

As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm going to be on a lovely little island without any form of internet connection over the weekend. After Friday night PST I won't be able to answer any queries until late Sunday at the earliest. Please have patience with me if I'm slow to respond to comments/PMs.

Thank you everyone for your interest in this giveaway and my posts! It's been a pleasure to promote some great books. And if you haven't had enough giveaways in your life, merisunshine36 is giving away 2 copies of N.K. Jemisin's The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms.

And out of curiosity's sake: A poll!

ETA: The poll doesn't seem to be working, and I'm too annoyed to fiddle with it. I'll try again later this weekend.

*Only caveat is that I have to be able to ship to you through an online distributor. Also must have a DW account or use Open-ID.

I wrote about awesome female characters in baseball anime for the Fuck Yeah She's Awesome challenge.

Fingers crossed that I get lucky... your review of the Downum book piqued my interest!

That looks so cool! I recently watched all of Prince of Tennis and loved it, but I wish somewhat desperately that there had been girls on the team. I may have to check Taishou Yakyuu Musume out (it also looks like my preferred kind of anime style).

If Taishou Yakyuu Musume looks appealing at all (I realize there are lots of people for whom it will probably be too cutesy, alas!), then yeah, definitely check it out. It's SO ADORABLE. *_* (& also short, so a relatively small commitment)

I shall link the most epic thing I did, but I did many things: my au_bigbang fic. (Supernatural genfic, ~18,500 words long!)

Omg, that thing is beastly. Grats!

Also: Your av. It's too cute. I can't get over it.

Yay books! Yay DW!

I posted two fics, one written for the transfic fest, about the same character. And I hosted, indexed, and replied to the

ladyslash comment fest.

Aren't you a busy bee! I hadn't seen that comment fest-- very cool.

I'm head over heels for this fest!

And we're having a blast at the ladyslash, we really are.

I made a post about ableism and the blog-o-sphere for 3 Wks. ^^

Enjoy your trip!

I posted about figure skating, and also some book reviews. All 3Weeks posts here: http://holyschist.dreamwidth.org/tag/three+weeks+for+dreamwidth

Hmm, I get a "You're not permitted to view this poll" message, so I can't tell if I've voted or not.

Ack. Thanks for letting me know! The poll wasn't working for me, either, it turns out, so I disabled it for now.

I made a vid, and uploaded the discography of some of my favorite artists.

I've access-granted you so you can see all my 3 weeks for DW fic. :)

I did a bunch (my tag's here), but my most popular post was "Writing in quantity", about how I write a lot quickly.

Thanks for doing this! Even if I don't win, the thought that someone's sharing books is really awesome.
