Pat will be giving them away to some lucky winner in his latest contest, and I&#8217;ve agreed to autograph &#8217;em, even add a personal inscription if you like.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to enter, get yourself over to <a href=\"http:\/\/fantasyhotlist.blogspot.com\/\">http:\/\/fantasyhotlist.blogspot.com\/<\/a>  for details of how the contest works.  Pat has all kinds of other giveaways going as well.  So if you don&#8217;t win DREAMSONGS, maybe you&#8217;ll pick up a free copy of the Subterranean Press limited edition of HUNTER&#8217;S RUN (written by me and Gardner Dozois and Daniel Abraham, and illustrated by Bob Eggleton, winner of many Hugos and Lord of the Hair), or perhaps a new book by Neil Gaiman, by Stephen R. Donaldson, by Ian MacDonald&#8230; Pat runs a lot of contests.<\/p>\n<p>Even beyond the giveaways, Pat&#8217;s is a cool site to visit for anyone with an interest in fantasy.  It&#8217;s one of the most lively and literate blogs on the internet, and seems to feature new content almost every day.  If he keeps it up, this is a site that deserves serious consideration for a Hugo nomination next year.<\/p>\n<p>But that&#8217;s next year.  Right now, go win yourself a DREAMSONGS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DREAMSONGS is on the way this fall, in two big volumes, and the good folks at Bantam Books have donated a couple of ARCs (that&#8217;s Advanced Reading Copies, for those of you who don&#8217;t speak Publishing Lingo, a fancy sort of bound galley put out in advance of a book&#8217;s publication to generate buzz and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4068"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4068"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4068\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4069,"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4068\/revisions\/4069"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4068"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4068"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4068"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
