Win a Raven Boys Doodle. And an Audiobook.  
Today I was laying about and complaining about my missing teeth and eating ibuprofen and instead of working, I did a little doodle of the characters from The Raven Boys.

ME: I did this. Is it fan art if I'm the one doing it?
FACEBOOK: No. Yes. Maybe? Whatever! Give it away with a contest!

I always do what Facebook says, because surely, surely it is never wrong. So here's a contest for this doodle. Because it seems like not a very exciting prize to me, I'm also adding in a signed audiobook of The Raven Boys. Will Patton narrates it and does a freakin' fantastic job with all of the voices.

Because I'm mostly laying about being useless, I'm making this a really simple contest. Basically, change your icon on any of your social media sites — Facebook, Twitter, Goodreads, whatever, to the cover of Raven Boys until this time tomorrow. Then post the link of where you've changed it into the Contest Machine site as your entry. Please note that unless you enter on the Contest Machine thingy, you are not entered! A blog comment doesn't count!

Here's the cover. You can right click on it to save and all that good stuff.

Cover for The Raven Boys

Tomorrow evening, I'll pick a random winner, double check that the icon of the person I drew is changed, and taDA. And everyone can change their icons back to their dogs and stuff. It's open internationally. Sound good?

Goooo.

LOL, thanks. It needs it.

Think of the missing teeth this way if a character ever gets punched or gets a nasty gram from the tooth fairy and you so choose to write about it, you'll have the reflections of today to draw from :)

Yaaaaay for contest.

Alas, this is tooth number 8 & 9 being pulled (I had a tumultuous youth), so I am afraid to admit I already have plenty of experience in this department.

Missing teeth
I too am living on Advil and bemoaning the recent loss of my tooth (so sorry your misery is plural). So instead of writing, I am checking your blog.
Thanks Maggie!

Re: Missing teeth
It's wretched. Really it's wretched at night, though. Day wretchedness is really quite minimal. You?

Re: Missing teeth
I was actually listening to Raven Boys at twenty after midnight, because, well, you know how it goes at night.

So thanks for that fine novel, which provides much needed distraction for the pathetic version of toothless me.

Day time is fine, as long as one does not try running in the needles that are winter air on new gum tissue.

It ends soon...right?

I'm so upset I missed this!!

Not that I ever win anyway, but I would have loved to have a shot. I absolutely adore that you draw your own art and make your own music. Your book trailers are incredible, and mainly because you make them all yourself. A unimpressive prize? Hardly.
