For this week, I thought it would be a good idea to run a competition. Seeing as it's Worker's Day tomorrow, and my readers are going to have some time to work on it, I've decided to publish a bonus crossword puzzle for everyone to have a look at.
As always, the answers will be published next week, and you can supply your guesses to me via Twitter or Facebook. But there's a twist, this time. The first person to send me the correct answers before next week Tuesday will win a free copy of my fantasy short story ebook, A Petition to Magic! This will be by way of a coupon code that I will send to you, to be redeemed on Smashwords. In addition, I will publish your name as winner on this blog.
So what are you waiting for? Get solving!
