Today is the final day of our week of giveaways, compliments of Workman Publishing. If you haven’t already entered the other giveaways, there is still time. They all end at 11:59 PM (EST) on Friday, January 13, 2023.
These giveaways are just a small sampling of the award winning books and calendars available from Workman Publishing. You can view them all here – Workman.com. You can also find them on social media. Be sure to thank them on social media for offering up these prize packages.
Today’s giveaway is designed to puzzle and intrigue you.
Fun fact – I was gong to college to get my Master’s in Forensic Psychology.
I’ve been fascinated by true crime ever since I was younger. It blows my mind how seemingly “normal” (and I use that term loosely) people can go on to commit the most horrific crimes. Sometimes it’s a matter of a mental health issue, other times people just “snap.” It’s crazy to me.
I used to read true crime stories all the time back in the day. I even interned for a year at Green Haven Correctional Facility in upstate New York. It’s a maximum security all-male prison. To say it was an eye opening experience is an understatement.
In today’s giveaway, one luck winner will receive A Year of True Crime Page-A-Day Calendar 2023.
The calendar for true crime buffs is back—with all the harrowing details.
Each day, A Year of True Crime delves into the dark but fascinating world of murder and mayhem, reality style. Vintage crimes, like the case of Englishwoman Mary Blandy, hanged in 1752 for poisoning her father with a potion to make him approve her betrothal. (The “potion” contained lethal levels of arsenic.) Oddball laws: In Victoria, Australia, it’s illegal to vacuum after 10 p.m. Plus Cold Cases Cracked, Forensic Facts, true crime quizzes, and quotes to give you chills: “Even psychopaths have emotions if you dig deep enough. But then again, maybe they don’t.”—Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker. It’s the calendar for true crime fans of all stripes. Printed on responsibly sourced paper and 100% recyclable.
This sounds like a fascinating calendar. I would probably go ahead and keep on reading past the current day.
The other calendar in this giveaway is the Mensa 365 Brain Puzzlers Page-A-Day Calendar 2023.
Mensa is the largest and oldest high-IQ society in the world. It is a non-profit organisation open to people who score at the 98th percentile or higher on a standardised, supervised IQ or other approved intelligence test.
A year of word puzzles, number problems, logic challenges, and other cranial conundrums, designed to push your neurons to the limit.
Mensa 365 Brain Puzzlers Calendar takes puzzle-solving to the extreme, delivering a daily brain-bender that’s so tough, it’s sanctioned by Mensa, the international high-IQ society. Test your mental mettle with word ladders and squares, rhyme schemes, secret codes, pangrams, mazes, clever Sudoku variations, and math riddles that work every brain cell: Kapil is three times as old as Umar was five years ago. In seven years, Umar will be as old as Kapil is now. How old are they now?* If your gray matter isn’t up to the task, no worries—answers are on the reverse side of each page. Printed on responsibly sourced paper and 100% recyclable.
It is VERY important to keep your brain active, especially the older you get. An active mind can help you fight against cognitive impairments such as memory loss, neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and more. One day you can do this is by learning something new all time time (a hobby, take a class…). You can also keep your brain active doing puzzles. I can only imagine how interesting the puzzles must be in this page-a-day calendar because it’s from Mena.
The winner of today’s giveaway will win both calendars. You can keep them both or gift one to another person.
This giveaway is open to U.S. residents only and will end at 11:59 PM (EST) on January 13, 2023. The winner will be chosen at random using a random number generator. The winner will be notified by email and will have three (3) days to respond, or a new winner will be chosen in their place.
