If you have your own personal copy of Librarian Bomb, then you know that at its center there is a coloring contest. Readers are encouraged to pull out the center sheet, color and enhance artistically the scene depicted, and fold the sheet according to the ingenious instructions on the back before sticking a stamp on the folded sheet and dropping it in the mail to me for later judging and possibly winning of fabulous yet-to-be-named-prizes.*

So far only TWO people have entered. They are lovely people with very nice entries, but two?

So, just to make things easy on y’all who didn’t order a copy of the zine or who are loath to remove a sheet from your copy, here is a downloadable version: PDF of the LSW Coloring Contest. This is a two page document, so if you can duplex print it, you can color on one side and fold according to the other side, and it’ll be great. If you can’t print two-sided, you can just print the coloring side and use the info on page two to address a conventional envelope.

Or you can click on the image in this post to get a full-size PNG that you can print and mail to:

On the sheet it says that the deadline is January 1, 2010–let’s extend that to January 15. And NO, I will not take scans, photographs, faxes, etc. You can take the PNG into Photoshop and go nuts with it, but in the end you gotta send me a piece of paper.

* Prizes not guaranteed to be fabulous. Offer void where prohibited by law. Must be 18 or older to enter. Odds of winning depend on number of entries.
