Al Draws Prizes:

Well after posting about my Dad on Saturday I have a change of pace tonight.

It's time to draw the prizes for my giveaway!

I drew the second prize first. The lucky second is: Falen (aka Sarah Ahiers)

Now for the big one: Drum Roll…

And the winner is: Old Kitty (aka Jennifer). Thus proving the benefits of taking a little bribery and corruption :-)


Well I am in a generous mood this evening soooo

I am changing the prizes.

First prize is now:
Six 8” by 10” prints of any of my piccies from this blog; the winner chooses the piccies they want.
OR as an alternative prize, a copy of my book Veiled in Shadows AND three 8” by 10” prints.

Second Prize:
Is now three 8” by 10” prints of any of my piccies from this blog OR a copy of my book .

I know Old Kitty has been printing my extract pages to take on the train, so now you can have a copy that is easier to hold if you choose.

As to Falen, well I know you wanted a copy for Christmas. Now you have the option to get a copy early (if you wish).

So what will you both choose? My book ,or my piccies? Here's a sample
So dear winners you will have to email me and let me know what you want to do.

Words on Wednesday: Bribery and Corruption

I hate to disappoint those of you who were hoping I’d post more about my youth.
But I have the urge to post more of my novel Veiled in Shadows.

I will try to post more about Mum’s place and my youth next time.

If by some chance you are interested and have not read any of my literary venture you can find my Prologue and Chapter One by clicking the tabs above. Now of course I have added Chapter Two.

There is a bit of a change of pace in this Chapter, but I guess those of you who have read so far will check it out.

Now for my attempt at bribery and corruption.
I think I am over due for running another Giveaway on my blog.

Like last time the prize will be prints of some of my piccies.

Last time I gave away three piccies to Christine from Inwardly Digesting.

I guess I have to top that so this time I will offer two prizes.

First Prize:
Five 8” by 10” prints of any of my piccies from this blog. The winner chooses the piccies they want, OR a copy of my book which ever you prefer.

Second Prize:
Three 8” by 10” prints of any of my piccies from this blog.

As last time there are just a few caveats: a small number of the piccies on the blog are not mine, I can’t give away prints of those; and a few piccies are cropped from larger images and would not print well at 8” by 10”, if the winner really wanted those I could organise smaller prints.

The rules to enter the give away:
1. The competition is open to people anywhere in the world.

2. You must be a follower of my blog (new followers are welcome to enter too).

3. You must leave a comment on this post, leaving a comment gains you one entry.
(This is I guess a free entry for those of you who are not corruptible).

4. True to form my mercenary side comes out, if you post about my giveaway on your blog I will give you an extra 2 entries.

5. If you mention my book and link to this post I will give you another 2 entries for a total of 5.

I will keep entries into the giveaway open until Sunday the 28th of November 2010 to give people time to enter.
Once I have chosen the winners at random (my decision will be final) I will contact them so they can choose the piccies they would like to receive as prints.

Now just a few reminders of what you could win:

Are You tempted?
