Competition Winners!

And here we are, coming in late (as usual)... The winners of the strapline competition. So many cool entries. A lot of similar ones, and unfortunately that meant we couldn't put those in the final ten. There were lots of "Burn, Baby Burn!" and suchlike, which would have been so cool to see on a cover if we'd only had one entry for it...! I love the winning entries, though, so a huge congratulations to everyone who took part.

And the winners are...

Hugo Peach

Evan Jenkins

Harriet Langley

Tom Wood

Jack Holton

Ashan Ali

Laura MacKenzie

Nigethan Sathiyalingham

Phoebe Ryall

Megan Smales


All the winners receive two signed glossy prints of the cover with their own strap line. Awesome.

Oh, and to remind you, the comments section below is NOT for spoilers!

  19. WHY IS EVERYTHING COMING OUT.

    WHYYYYYYYY.

    *tries to stop thinking about everything*

    LET'S TALK ABOUT TEASPOONS.

    I mean, really. SPOONS for TEA! What an incredible invention! :)
    And even better - they can be used for other things!!! Like STIRRING HOT CHOCOLATE!!!! Or EATING YOGHURT OUT OF YOGHURT POTS TOO SMALL TO FIT A BIGGER SPOON IN!!!!!!!!!!!! Or even MEASURING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    How clever they are. *worships teaspoons*
    Teaspoons are glorious.

  29. Why doesn't everyone just get a Kindle? You don't even NEED a Kindle. Wednesday could be today if you just made a Kindle account for your tablet or iPhone or something. Then you just pay $13 and bam. You have LSODM.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Honestly, Adra, I just sat there and started laughing when you came in.

    ALL THE MINIONS THAT ARE IN THERE I JUST CAN'T

    I'll probably blow up or something when Zathract appears...

    No, Dylan, I've not read the whole book yet.

    ReplyDelete
  35. *sighs in relief* I may die of excitement HOPEFULLY the post takes pity and I get LSODM early because once I get it ai am hiding in my room READING

    ReplyDelete
  36. Zath, I did something stupid. REALLY STUPID.
    As usual.

    I skipped to the back of the book and read the last chapter.

    I COULDNT HELP IT!

    I DID THE SAME WITH DARK DAYS AND I FLIPPED MY SHIT WHEN I FOUND OUT SHE WAS DARQUESSE.

    JUST... LOOK AT THE COVER OF LSODM.
    LOOK AT IT. IT MADE ME CRY.

    ReplyDelete
  37. YEP!

  39. I saw that, Dylan. Yeah. Not the smartest move
    I'm staying well away from the ending.

    Awesome. Preordered mine from Amazon so with any luck it'll be here in the next few weeks where I can carefully put it on my shelf and never let anyone but Derek at a signing touch ever again.

    ReplyDelete
  40. AND THE WAY THAT...

    OKAY. GOD. no.it can't be released. But it also needs to. But I won't.

    Adra do you know what I'm talking about?

    ReplyDelete
  41. /WHY ARE YOU ALL TALKING ABOUT IT SHUT THE FUCK UP OKAY. :)/

    @Alex: I don't do that, but often, when I really want to read a book, I read all the acknowledgments and the blurb and the rights page and all that. :P
    To put off reading it.
    Because when I really want to read a book, I'm always really hesitant to read it.
    I just kind of stare at it for a bit and put it off.
    I'm not 100% sure why . . . :P

  69. Happy publlication day, Derek!
    And Bloglanders too, at that! :)

    llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

    I'mn n0t here, but yeah. Thought I'd stop by andf wish the happiness upon you all-

    Hang on. I need to sneeze...

    - So, yeah, happiness and SODM and (hopefuy) no spoiders. *throws confetti* Yay!

    P.S. Apoogies for my typing. The 'LL' key is still broken and it kinda throws you(me) off track on the other etters. That, and you either get too many ''s, or no 'l's at all, which is frustrating, and may or may not make the words understandable.

    Sometimes I end up with a who;e sting of llllllllllllllllllllll and then have to consullt backspace, which is confusing-ish.

    Anyway. HAppy Publication Day, all. :)
    You rule. Please don't let LSODM kill you. It's dangerous, but we all need to survive for book 9, right? :P

  98. Twitter, of course, Dylan.

    Alright, so I'm "up to date" with Tadra, I suppose.
    I didn't attend the Ball last year for a fairly good reason but I see no reason as to why I shouldn't hang around in the shadows this year.

    When's that happening?

    I'll email you, Zaf.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Sorry about the caps for DEREK. Shit. I just said Derek in caps so many times that's how it auto corrects it.

  106. DEREK LANDY.

    Oh my gosh, it is an honour. I don't know if you're still on, but you have been such an inspiration to me, and have gotten me through a lot of hard times with your excellent literary talent. Just seeing you say hi would mean the world. Alex Chrome, Matthew Cattell. It's all the same to me. You don't even have to say anything. But, it's the second time I've met you on here, both times you had to leave. But thank you for existing. You have brought so much happiness into my life it's not even funny. Thank you.

    I saw the two-in-ones today and I told mum I wanted them for my collection but she didn't really like the idea of me buying more, so I'll have to ask my grandparents or my dad XD

  111. Don't know who Eld is either. Yeah - I missed a lot.

    Hah, fair enough.

    ReplyDelete
  112. Uh oh.....*hides* I'm gonna get it if Howlett hanfs me to him

  145. HE BLEW UP MY FLOOR OKAY

    So I put about 5,000 cows in his bedroom and closed the hatch up.

    And turned his bar into a disco bar

    and put signs everywhere

    and wrote in the sand with pink carpet

    and I went in last night and put sheep in there too

    I dedicate this page to LSODM, may we all survive this book to go onward to Book 9, *gulp* I also ded to Derek for writing this book and including any Minions he did, we all deserve it and I would continue but...spoilers. I dedicate to all the people who have read the book to SHUT YOUR FACES AND NOT SPOIL FOR THE AMERICANS AND SUCH WHO DONT HAVE IT YET. Thank you.
