This Week's Contest

Since it's been so miserable and dreary here in Austin for the last week (though the sun has finally managed to break through) I thought I'd give myself a little boost by imagining summer sunshine.  So for this week's giveaway, I'm doing a "Fun in the Sun" basket, complete with all kinds of fun summer stuff along with some cool Tempest swag I just put together.  So leave a comment for the question of the week to be entered to win!  Winner will be posted on Sunday :)

Question of the Week: Name one writer whose books totally blow you away, and tell me why.  For me, recently, it's been Cory Doctorow, whose books Little Brother and For the Win just speak to me on every level imaginable.  Talk about a brilliant writer and an incredible storyteller.  But I don't want to ruin the review I have planned for sometime in the nebulous future, so I'll stop myself there.  For now!
