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, [personal profile] 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!

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 [community profile] ladyslash comment fest.

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.

I wasn't going to participate, because I only blog on DW now, but I made [community profile] pfc for 3W4DW, so I think that counts. Sadly, I have so far posted only about one article.

...aaaaaaaaand I totally just noticed that it is past the deadline on the post. *facepalm* SORRY, too sleep-deprived to understand dates, apparently.
