Contest Redux

July 27th, 2008 by skzb · 6 Comments

Just wanted to mention that I still haven’t gotten 17 emails.  A signed personalized copy of Jhegaala will go to the 17th person who offers to send me a copy of Colin Turnbull’s The Forest People.

    So, we just have to offer, we don’t actually have to send you anything?

    And I take it your author copies arrived. Yay!

    Yes. All you have to do is offer to win the contest. Of course, winning the contest doesn’t involve sending you anything; just telling you that you win. To actually *receive* the book…

    Hee!

    Hm.

    Offer submitted. I normally don’t do contests… because well… I’m pretty lazy. And if I offer to do something I always feel like I have to do it. And so I tend not to offer to do things at all.

    But I’ll make an exception in this case. Heh.

    Not sure where to post this, but out of curiousity, how would I maximize actual income to you when purchasing my copy of Jhegaala? My assumption is roughly that by buying an ebook from mobipocket, sony, or whoever, I create the least overhead and thus make sure the author gets paid more… (OTOH, many ebooks are automatically priced at significantly less than print copies — Amazon’s kindle books, for instance — so maybe doing so isn’t optimal?)

    To tell you the truth, andrew, I have no idea. Thanks for the interest, though.
