TIME FOR ANOTHER CONTEST!

Last time I asked you to help me name a dandy. (I got so many excellent responses. I'm never in danger of running out of foppish monikers again!) This time, I need your help naming an airship. Two winners will receive a signed copy of Arm of the Sphinx.

Christening airships has turned out to be one of the funnest parts of writing the series. The Stone Cloud, the Ararat, and the State of Art are some of the names I came up with. Now it's your turn! To enter the contest, just put your ship name in the comments below.

The contest closes this Friday at noon (GMT). I'll select two winners. I'll choose my favorite name, which will be included in the next book in the series, and I'll randomly draw a second winner from a hat. That gives you two chances to win!

One entry per person. There is no restriction on region. If you can receive post where you are, I will mail a book to you! Good luck!

The Aether, a ship where the dreams of the common mind roost and take wing."


Glad you like it :)

Ani The Muddy Pinion.

'Pinion' can refer to either the primary flight feathers of a bird or to a gear.

I like Zena's 'Aether' idea. That would also be a cool name for a ringdom/establishment.
