Chestnut King Winners!

After much terrible slicing and into-pot-inserting, four (4) winners have been selected. I even recorded a dramatic video clip with terrible (late-night whispering) audio of the drawing. But, thanks to Murphy and his darn law, it wouldn’t load tonight, and I know some impatient Australians are already up and wondering why I flaked on the big announcement. So .  .  . without further ado (or an appropriate soundtrack–I had an original ukulele piece by my agent lined up and everything), here are the winners:

Sip Hofstede, Heather C., Paula, and David

If you are wondering if you are the generic David, or the generic Paula, or the slightly less generic Heather C., just wait to see if I email you for your shipping address. As for Sip Hofstede, well, I’m pretty sure you know who you are.

Congrats and Merry Christmas!

congrats to all the winners! :D

Man, I wish I was the generic David. Actually, I think I’d rather be Sip Hofstede.

Or, congrats! :)

Good thing I went ahead and ordered my copy last week.

just finished reading my dad’s copy and enjoyed it hugely. thanks for writing that!

1-26-10 standing at the door of my local Barnes and Noble when they opened, I purchased my copy of the Chestnut King.
I have read the first two chapters and will pound it out soon.
I think I’ll miss Henry though.
Have you thought about facebook, that way your fans can help spread the word and foster conversation. Just a thought.
Whats next?
Cheers to you!

Say N.D., when does the paperback version of The Chestnust King come out?
