Draw Results

Every few weeks I draw a batch of names from a digital hat and send those lucky folk a signed copy of my novel. (If you're not in the draw you can enter here)

This particular draw is for a copy of Hal Spacejock with the funky new Dion Hamill cover.



Every person in the draw has received (or will receive) a unique number via email, and if your number appears below you've won a copy! Just reply to the notification email with your mailing address and you'll receive a signed copy of Hal Spacejock.


The winning numbers for draw 1221:

12305
12359
12698
12702



If you missed out, relax! There's a second chance! All you have to do is post a comment below, and in a few days time I'll pick a name at random and they'll also win a copy of Hal. (The second chance draw is one extra book for each of my Blogger, LJ and Myspace blogs. Keen Spacejock fans will no doubt seek out and comment on all three ...)

    Wow, only one number off winning!

    Hmm, so I've found you on blogger & myspace but didn't even look on LJ... so am I not keen enough? Is keen the new word for fangirl?

    :o)

    Simon you will need to write faster, or i'll need to read slower, one of the two!

    You Aussie's have all the fun!
    These books aren't available in the US of A. Yet.
    I most certainly hope that changes soon!

    Happy Christmas to Down Under, from Up Top! =P

    Live in America, just read the first Hal Space Jock. Quite amusing. I don't know why I enjoy watching Newtonian Physics beat up Hal so much as the vehicles accelerate and decellerate, but I get a kick out of them.

    When is the Hal Spacejock game coming out?

    I was a big fan of Space Quest, but Hal Spacejock the game would blow it away...

  11. Aaargh! Curse you, 12054, you worthless number!

    And yet I am 12054, thanks to some randomizing algorithm. Is self-loathing an appropriate response to chance loss? Surely not.

    Maybe next time I will be lucky. Or maybe next time I will be worthy. Take your pick.

    Well 3 correct digits out of 5 ain't too bad. After all it's 80 percent and that's more than I got on my math exam... lol

  21. aahhh, about as close as I get to a Lotto win,
    If I don't win in the next round I might have to resort to buying a copy,
    BTW I tried my own little bit of space fiction, if you'd like a laugh (or maybe just a grin) I'm a textile artist who watches re-runs of Star Trek

  24. Heh. One in how many chances? I've never been good at these lucky draws. Or maybe I was designed not to win. Hope to win a copy :)

    Cheers.

  43. Would certainly like to win; still, it's nice to know that you, Simon, are thinking of me on this bleak day in Chicago. Someday, the gods will see fit to usher me into Halvalla (??)!
