We’ve got three (3) copies of bestselling author Lisa Tucker’s crazily well-reviewed new novel, The Promised World, available as special Wonkette Prizes for three readers who solve the Puzzle of Weirdness. UPDATE: WE HAVE WINNERS, NO MORE EMAILS PLEASE!

1) There is no Puzzle of Weirdness.

2) The first three Wonkette readers who email us with the subject line “THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A PUZZLE OF WEIRDNESS” and their name/mailing address in the email body and a little note at the end consisting of a single lyric from a 20th Century jazz standard will receive a copy of The Promised World.

3) There is no No. 3.

What’s jazz?

Does Hello Dolly count as a jazz song because Louis Armstrong sang it?

Damn. I wish I could read. (Not really.)

OK, have you gotten the three yet? Because I think this is a contest where I might actually have a chance.

Jazz is fer terrists. Real ‘Mericans listen to Lee Greenwood.

Godammit, I never win anything. I just *know* I’m too late, but I sent one anyway. I finished the one about the hermaphrodite child of two generations of incest and his/her voyage of self-discovery via peep shows and the Berlin subway system, and now I need some new smut. Please let me win one: my life is empty and meaningless.

PS, why isn’t intern editor Juli writing this? Isn’t she the literary one?

[re=402582]jodyleek[/re]: So, is there a coffee table version that omits the words. Cuz I got ten bucks.

ExecutorElassus September 4, 2009 at 12:23 pm

And why can’t I get the strikeout tag to work? See? Empty and meaningless.
