rolanni: (Carousel Sun)

Check the list below to find out if you're a winner, and then come on back to the top for the methodology and instructions for collecting your code.

The Methodology:  The names of all contestants were written on slips of paper, which were folded and placed into a Duro 6 brown paper bag, manufactured on Jul 26 14, serial number EL 26 B.  The open top edge of the paper bag was folded over, twice, and vigorously shaken.  Trooper then rubbed his cheek over the bag's exterior, for luck.

Famous SciFi Author Steve Miller, dressed in a glittery red sequined dress, with matching red high heels then tantalizingly withdrew ten slips of paper from the bag, reading each name in a sultry, yet innocent, voice, much to the approval of Sprite, who was watching from her perch on the file cabinet.

I took those ten slips of paper and compiled the list below.

How to collect your prize: If you are, indeed, one of the lucky winners listed below, this is what you need to do to receive your coupon code.

1.  Write to me at sharonleeATkorvalDOTcom from an email address where you regularly receive mail.  Tell me which name on the list below is yours.

2.  Do #1 above BEFORE noon EDT on Friday, September 19 -- that's this Friday!

3.  If I still have coupon codes in hand at Noon-O-One on Friday, September 19, I will post another list here, of second-tier winners, with instructions for claiming the prizes.

That's it.

Go!

EDITED TO ADD:  One lucky winner had forgotten, in her enthusiasm, that she already owned a copy of Carousel Sun.  She has asked that her code be given to someone else.  Sprite was pressed into service and pulled one! more! slip of paper from the paper bag, and the name of the new winner has been added to the list below.

Steve would not let me take a picture of him in his sexy gown, here's a picture of Trooper, instead:

This is what happens after writers turn in their book and before their brains grow back.

Cat spam!

A kind friend sent me a Quillow for a birthday present.  If you, like me, were heretofore ignorant of Quillows, they're quilts with an integral pocket that you can fold the quilt up into, creating -- a pillow!  Mine was on the couch yesterday when I retired there from dozing on the porch.  I started in to reading, but got cold.  The Quillow was right there, so I unfolded it and snuggled in.

When Steve called me for dinner, I left the quilt where it was, because Sprite had joined me and was still dozing.  And I forgot to put it away before I went to bed.  No worries, though; it's still getting plenty of use:




The sunspot and the Quillow, with coon cats.

Meantime, Mozart was enjoying his fleece-y blanket on top of the file cabinet in my room, with plenty of reading matter to paw.




Mozart, with books.


Mozart, with books.
