Countdown Tuesday: Look What I’m Giving Away in December!

Five more weeks until Deadtown‘s release! On December 1, I’ll give you a sneak peek at the novel by posting Chapter 1 here.

Then, throughout the rest of the month, I’ll be giving away a prize a week right up to release day. I love Deadtown‘s cover, and thanks to Café Press I’ve created some prizes that show it off.

Here’s what you can win:

December 8: A Deadtown coffee mug (retail value $12) and a signed copy of the book.

December 15: A Deadtown tote bag (retail value $14) and a signed copy.

December 22: A 0.6 liter Sigg water bottle sporting Deadtown’s cover (retail value $20), plus a signed copy.

December 29: The Big Day calls for a big prize, so I’m giving away a Flip Mino HD video camera! This small, slim, lightweight camera records up to 60 minutes of HD video and shows off Deadtown’s cover. Its retail value is $199. Plus, of course, a signed copy of the book.

The contest begins on November 24 and ends on December 28 at 11:59 P.M. Eastern standard time. Each entry will be assigned a number based on the order it was received. I’ll use randomizer.org to hold random drawings on December 8, 15, 22, and 29. Your odds of winning are based on the number of entries received.

The winner of the December 8 drawing is not eligble for the drawings on December 15 and December 22. The winner of the December 15 drawing is not eligible for the drawing on December 22. All entrants, regardless of whether they’ve already won a prize, are eligible for the grand prize drawing on December 29.
