An amazing giveaway this month on Patreon!
I have a first edition hardcover book to give away, this is the amazing story of the Romanian child prodigy Iulia Hasdeu.
I have covered this video on Patreon, it has all the spooky, Gothic elements that we all love, legend has it that she communicated instructions on how to build her castle to her father… after her death!
I include all the relevant information in case you wish to order a copy yourself, I can guarantee it’s a very interesting read and has never been published before in English!
This book has been very kindly donated by Diana Livesay, who translated the book into English – she also sent me my own personal copy, and I want to thank you very much for that Diana.
I will give the winner of the option of me signing the book, again that is an option – some people will not want me defacing it with my graffiti 😀
To be in with a chance of winning the book, simply post your comment under the video on Patreon detailing this giveaway, tell me why you would like to win the book – and it’s that simple, you’re in the draw!
