So what do you have to do to enter. Head over to Fantasy Magazine and read my story Trench Foot, leave a comment on the story page (doesn't have to be gushing, even hate will be accepted as an entry but beware, I will be asking for your address if you win), and then come back here to tell me you've entered.
Now for the important part - the prizes.
There will be 2 first prize winners, who will receive goody bags containing the above which includes: Inflatable Parrot, Pirate Flag, Pirate Tattoos, Fairy Tattoos, Pirate Mask, Pirate Stickers & Pirate Pencil, 2 Fairy Bookmarks, and a real pirate (shown to scale).
You also get to choose one of the following books, which I will have Amazon ship directly to your door: Alex and the Wigpowder Treasure by Adrienne Kress (or if you're in the US, Alex and the Ironic Gentleman - same book), or Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr, or Wondrous Strange by Lesley Livingston. Yep that's books with fairies and pirates in.
The 2 first prize winners will also receive one of the below cards with a note from me thanking them for supporting my story. I know, you just want the card. Breathe.
The second prize winner will receive: Inflatable parrot, Pirate Stickers & Pirate Pencil, Fairy Bookmark, Fairy Tattoos, Pirate Tattoos and a Pirate Mask.
The third prize winner will receive: Inflatable Parrot, Pirate Stickers, Pirate Tattoos and Fairy Tattoos.
Competition closes midnight Monday July 19th. Good luck and thank you for entering.

I left a comment. What a fun story! It was delightful and strange. :)
I have also left a comment. And I agree about it being delightful and strange.
Bravo, Cate. What a wonderous, etheral realm your imagination must be.
Thanks Mercedes, Becky & Aaron. You are all stars.
It made me think of fairies in a whole new light.
Ooh, inflatable parrot!
I've commented too. (as JAMR). Your imagination is fertile, to say the least. Congrats on the pub!
I left a comment too. Excellent story! You make it look so easy, but I couldn't reach your level of surreal if I tried for a million years.
Cate, you are full of awesome. Here's to a fantastic story and many more pro sales to come. Congratulations and more importantly, thanks for the story!
Great story, truly enjoyable read.
Thank you. :)
Loved the story, Cate! I have left a comment. And my reading it had nothing to do with the prospect of pirate booty (umm, that didn't sound right...)
Congrats on the publications!
I am the kind of person who starts hyperventilating at prizes like this. Of course I entered. But then again, I'm also the kind of person who can't resist commenting on fairy/robot stories, so that's not much of a surprise either.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. :D
Mmm Pirate Booty <3
What a cool contest. Me thinks I'll have to check out "Trench Foot" too--contest of not--and give a comment.
:)
The winners have been announced - are you one of them?
