I'm having a drawing on my blog:

Giving away:
- hardcover copy of Bottomfeeder: How to Eat Ethically in a World of Vanishing Seafood
- Charity Pot body lotion from Lush Cosmetics; the retail price of this lotion is donated to a variety of charities, including Ocean Conservancy, Clean Ocean Action, and Oceana!
- $25 donation to the charity of your choice!

Personally I think it'd be great if a BookCrosser got it. I'd love it if the book kept traveling after I passed it on, it's fascinating material.

Time for my next contest! The last one went really well, and the charity donation ended up going too a Polio foundation in honor of someone's father, who passed away from the disease. It was really sweet.

This time, it's a Neil Gaiman bonanza!

THE PRIZES
- an ARC copy of Gaiman's newest book, The Graveyard Book, due to be released September 30th, 2008.
- Coraline, one of Gaiman's newest graphic novels
- Gaiman's Bath Surprise: one Stardust bath bomb and one Comforter bubble bath, which Gaiman has written about in his blog
- $25 to the charity of your choice!

Plus, I have more of Gaiman's books and perfumes and other related prizes; a new one will be added for every 50 entrants :) So blog the heck out of this one, folks, and increase the prize pool!

Thanks for the post, valkylee! It's been my joy to introduce my high-school students to Gaiman's work. What a great comp - thanks for your generosity :)
