Today EVIL JESTER PRESS announces an exciting, one-of-a-kind giveaway for Christopher Conlon’s The Oblivion Room: Stories of Violation, due for release by EJP on June 25!
The winner of this giveaway will receive a free advance review copy (trade paperback format) of The Oblivion Room signed by Chris (inscribed if you wish), along with a special, unique bonus: several pages of this Bram Stoker Award-winner’s original handwritten notes and first draft of one of the stories from the collection!
“I have an unusual working method, I guess,” Chris says. “Generally I begin in longhand, with a pencil and a legal pad. I compile some very disorganized notes over a period of weeks or months, and then start into the story itself. Only after I feel that I’ve got it ‘up and running,’ so to speak, do I switch over to the computer, typing up what there is of the handwritten draft and then moving forward.” Seeing Chris’s notes and handwritten first-draft pages will provide an invaluable insight into the working processes of an author Joe McKinney calls “one of our best, hands down,” and who Gary A. Braunbeck praises as “a brilliant writer.”
To enter this giveaway, simply send an e-mail with the words “I Want to Win!” typed in the subject heading to wehsconlon[at]aol.com. No text is necessary. One entry per person. All entries must be received by Friday, May 24 2013, 5:00 pm EST. The winner will be chosen at random and notified via e-mail. Winner must respond via return e-mail with name and mailing address within 72 hours of notification or prize will be rescinded and another winner chosen.
That’s it-a free trade paperback of The Oblivion Room, hailed by Michael R. Collings of Hellnotes for its “remarkable stories” and highly recommended for readers seeking “the deeper realms of fear and terror,” along with a sheaf of handwritten notes and first-draft material from the author himself.
Enter to win today!
