I have one last Prince of Fools ARC and yes ... I'm giving it away in a silly competition!
Competition now closed!
ARC won by #82
T-shirts won (in popular vote) by #47 and #88
Lets take this back to basics. We're on the internet after all, and what was the internet founded on? Besides porn I mean? Yes, that's right. Pictures of cats doing something stupid.
To enter this contest simply submit a photo or video of your cat (or other pet) looking/doing something foolish. Cats in hats, dogs in tutus, elephant seals in ... well ... anything. I realize that not everyone has a pet, so if you can't snap your neighbor's then children are an acceptable substitute. And failing that ... it can be you.
Rules: No animal, child, or person is to be hurt, upset, or endangered. No person's photo used without their consent. No famous youtube clips - it's got to be something you took the photo/film of.
I decided against scoring entries - too dangerous to give anyone's pet less than 100%
1st prize = signed Prince of Fools Advance Reading Copy.
2nd prize = Prince of Thorns T-shirt
3rd prize = Prince of Thorns T-shirt
