Exclusive Readers Club competition

As the title subtly hints, I'm going to be running an exclusive competition for members of my readers club soon.

I'll be emailing members next Friday to tell them how to win the following goodies:

• A signed copy of The Time to Kill
• The original page proofs of the first two chapters of the next book: Don't Look For Me
• (By popular demand) A bar of Mrs. Tilly's Scottish tablet

The page proofs are one-of-a-kind. These are the final printers proofs the author uses to fix any remaining typos and to make any last minor changes to the text. The winner will be one of the first people outside of my publisher to read these two chapters, and the book isn't published in the UK until April 20.

The Scottish tablet is because I included one with a previous competition and it went nuts, so if it ain't broke...

For the uninitiated, tablet is "a medium-hard, sugary confection ... usually made from sugar, condensed milk, and butter, which is boiled to a soft-ball stage and allowed to crystallise." It's nicer than it sounds, kind of like hard fudge.

Anyway.

If you want to be in with a shot of winning, all you have to do is make sure you're signed up to the Readers Club. It's a good thing to do anyway - it's free, I won't constantly spam you, and you'll get a heads-up on news, exclusives and giveaways like this one.

It takes two seconds to sign up and confirm, you can unsubscribe any time with one click, and look - there's a handy form right here:
