Party Like It’s 1889!
If you’re half as excited as we are, you’re at risk of a heart attack.
Why? Because I’m declaring May a month of giveaway madness. Four books, four authors, four weeks of contests, and more prizes than you can shake a stick at!
That’s right: the month of May we’re gonna party like it’s 1889!
No, no, put away your Eiffel Tower figurines, margherita pizzas and jukeboxes. I didn’t mean 1889 the year, I meant 1889 Labs Ltd, independent publisher extraordinaire, ie, us!
Did someone say PRIZES? #hellyes
There are dozens of ways to win and over ten amazing prizes!
Every week we’ll be giving away one paperback of your choosing, a $10 Amazon voucher, plus some must-have ebooks!
Not enough for you? Well, we’re also running a grand giveaway across all four weeks! Up for grabs this month only:
3rd Place: A backstage pass! Get an advance ebook copy of the next title we’ll publish in June 2011!
