Winston Breen's Puzzle Party
An NPL friend and former Hunt teammate of mine, Eric Berlin, is hosting a week-long "puzzle party" on various blogs to promote his new children's book, The Potato Chip Puzzles. You can win a copy of the book or the grand prize, which the website says is "every single one of G.P. Putnam's Sons Spring 2009 children's and YA books, plus advance reading copies of numerous Fall 2009 books."
I just did today's puzzle, the first of the week, and it's definitely easy enough that those of you I've scared away from puzzling with cryptic crosswords and Mystery Hunt links should click through and give it a shot. You never know, you could win a shit-ton of kid lit!
More details about the puzzle contest can be found here, along with links to the blogs that will be posting the rest of the puzzles over the upcoming week. Check it out.
