Super Spring Book Giveaway!
You might not be able to afford the inscribed edition of Emma described below, but you can be one of five lucky winners of one of the latest Jane Austen-related publications from Sourcebooks. They are giving five AustenBlog readers the opportunity to win their choice of the following books:
Old Friends and New Fancies by Sybil Brinton
Letters from Pemberley and More Letters from Pemberley by Jane Dawkins
(Note: These are two separate books–please only request one of them.)
The Darcys Give a Ball by Elizabeth Newark
The Pemberley Chronicles and Women of Pemberley by Rebecca Ann Collins
(Note: These are two separate books. Please only request one of them.)
The Watsons and Emma Watson by Jane Austen and finished by Joan Aiken
Emma and Knightley by Rachel Billington
Mrs. Darcy’s Dilemma by Diana Birchall
To be entered in a drawing to win one of these books, send an e-mail to austenblog AT gmail DOT com with your name, mailing address, and the title of the book you would like to receive, by 10 p.m. Eastern time, Friday, May 2, 2008.
ETA: For the Jane Dawkins and Rebecca Collins books, each author has two separate books. Please only request one title. Apologies for the confusion. For those who have requested both, we’ll put you down for the first one–they are a series–unless you e-mail us and tell us differently.)

When do they announce the winners?
April 29th, 2008 at 11:48 am
I’m doing the actual drawing, though Sourcebooks will send the books. I’ll make the announcements next Sunday or Monday.

I am not sure if I am eligible. I am not a Janeite – but I do love Jane – and I am from Brazil, South America… well, if I may I would love Mrs. Darcy Dilemma. Thank you.

Raquel, you are eligible, but PLEASE send an e-mail with your address and book choice as explained in the post. I won’t be able to keep them all straight otherwise. Thanks!

You’re doing the drawing, Mags? Have I mentioned how very much I admire you? Plus you’re pretty.
(just a joke, folks; I’m not actually entering the drawing)
April 30th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Oh, except for the pretty part. That wasn’t a joke. I’m sure you’re very pretty.
April 30th, 2008 at 3:32 pm
Oops, I admire you, too. That wasn’t a joke, either.

ROTFLOL!!!!!!
Sue, I think you’d better stop now — you’re just digging a deeper hole.

Is that what it takes? I have chocolate, lots of chocolate!…And I’m bribing Dorothy to tell me your favorite tea!

Will definitely invite you for the *winner celebration* party Mags!
