Today on VFTQ I talk to the wonderful George Hrab about all kinds of things, although the conversation keeps seeming to swerve over to the side of embarrassing incidents. Ms. Information also makes an appearance!
George Hrab is a wonderful fellow, musician and entertainer. His podcast is at www.geologicrecords.com, and his music is at CDbaby.com and on iTunes. I recomend his songs Think For Yourself, BrainsBodyBoth, The Assumption and The More I Dispise it Less. If you have watched the CTYIfilm, you will already be familiar with quite a bit of his work, as all the music in the film is George’s. Also buy his AMAZING Non Coloring Book at http://www.lulu.com/content/1153616 in either Hard Copy or on the REAL cheaps on download. It’s great. I have one. This conversation gets a bit… Hairy. Don’t listen around the kiddykoos, OK? Or the Scientologists. Always with the Scientologists, here on VFTQ.

EDIT – 11/26/07 Added another prize to the list. Thanks Flockofdodos.com!

Hi there. Here is all the information about my new competition, the 12 Days of Christmas.

During the 12 days running up to the 25th, I aim to give out at least one *something* such as a book, album or t-shirt. Many of these items are signed. Here is the list of things which i KNOW I can give out so far. (Of course, If the person who is donating the prize does not get the prize sent to me, I can not give it out. But i doubt that anybody would do that.)

Only one of these prizes has a confirmed date attached, and all prizes may come in multiples. When I say “A copy of X” I could mean “3 copies of X”. I’m just not gonna tell you.

1. 25th of December, a copy of a Harry Potter book, signed by some of the cast of the next Harry Potter Film
2. A signed copy of Scott Sigler’s Ancestor – This book is now out of print, this is the only way you can get it.
3. A signed copy of Mur Lafferty’s Playing for Keeps.
4. A signed copy of Tee Morris‘s Expert Podcasting Practices for Dummies, Legacy of Morevi and BilliubBaddings and the Case of the Singing Sword (Not all on the same day of course)
5. A signed, Limited Edition, Pre Release copy of Seth Harwood’s Jack Wakes Up.
6. A signed album by George Hrab.M
7. A Playing for Keeps T-shirt from Geeklabel.com
8. A signed DVD of the Flock of Dodos documentary
9. A signed, limited edition copy of Crescent, the podiobook by Phill Rossi. This CD comes with full album artwork, and all the trimmings.

And more to be announced.

So, I hear you ask how you can win some of my great swag. All you have to do it subscribe to my podcast for free, using the little buttons over on the right hand side, (Click the “iTunes” button if you use iTunes and you will be subscribed automatically) or subscribe to my mailing list.
