There actually is no “Hadley
Colt,” of course. That name is a pseudonym for the real me, who has published a
number of books under a very different name.
My rational for adopting a penname
is explained here.
Having revealed that fact fairly
early in the game, it can now be stated it was never intended Hadley’s true
identity would be some secret for the ages.
So…
We are officially announcing a
contest to rip the mask off Ms. Colt.
Starting Monday and continuing
over the course of the week, a daily clue will be posted to Hadley Colt’s
official Twitter account @HadleyColt, to @betimesbooks and to Facebook.
Email your best guesses and
contact information to betimesbooks@gmail.com
If there is more than one correct
guess, a drawing will be held to determine the winner at the end of July.
The prize is two-fold: A $100
Amazon gift certificate, and a signed copy of PERMANENT FATAL ERROR in its
rarest form: autographed by Ms. Colt, and, well, by me…
Happy guessing. Clues will be
fair, but authors often have a much harder time hiding behind an assumed prose
style, so if you want to go at this the old-fashioned way, you can order PFE
here:
