April 24, 2008 | Contests

Nearly 300 of you were vying for the book set in our latest contest, but I can only give the prize to one of you (despite the enormous drifts of pixie dust that seem to be scattered around in here now…).

My trusty random number generator was up the task, and it spit out… number 134, Christina! Congratulations, Christina, and please look for and respond to my email. (I’m generous but I’m not psychic, and I need your mailing address.)

Many thanks to all who played, and very special thanks to the folks at Sourcebooks for donating the prize. If you still want to check out the Fairy Chronicles—and I encourage you to do so—you can order them directly from Sourcebooks or at Amazon (the price is the same both places, but you can get the free Super Saver Shipping from Amazon if you order enough). It really is a charming little series.

Coming up on Monday is a very special Mother’s Day contest which I predict will be Want Not’s most popular thus far (and that’s saying something—there were over 680 entries in the Lands’ End contest). You won’t want to miss it, trust me!

   Thanks anyway, Mir! I got the first book in this series from the library last night. It really is beautifully illustrated.

   Doh! ONE NUMBER away! I’ll never come that close again! Great contest, though. Glad to see you’re getting such a good response (although it will make it IMPOSSIBLE for me to ever win anything) here!
