Well,
I’m pleased to say there were 17 correct answers in the amazing Dan and the Dead ‘spot the difference’ competition. However, 18 slips of paper actually went into the hat
because someone let me know it’s their birthday today (many happy returns!) so obviously that
name had to go in twice.
But
the pitiless gaze of Dame Fortune -- as mediated through the Hat of Fate and
the Sea-and-Sand Fingers of my special helper, Benjy – takes little account of
such things, it seems. For the name drawn out was…
Valérie
Congratualtions,
Valérie! And this is especially pleasing as Valérie is a good friend from France, and as the French are still refusing to
publish anything I’ve ever done, it’s nice to think that one copy of one of my
books at least will find its way to a bookshelf in Paris. Albeit en anglais, but hey ho…
Keep
an eye out for the facteur, Valérie:-)
Sorry
to all those who didn’t win, but I had fun doing this, so there may be another
spot the difference competition soon. Like Dan’s facebook page to hear about it
first. In the meantime, Dan and the Dead has been selected by Julia Eccleshare for
promotion on Lovereading4kids. Here you can buy the book at a discount,
download an extract, and also find out a bit more about me and my new books. There
is also a crumby picture of me looking like I didn’t sleep very well the night
before, but you can just ignore that.
Congratulations,Valérie! Enjoy, it's a great read!
