The Winner of the Give-Away
The winner of the give-away is Dagmar, who wrote: “There was the person who sent ten different puns to various people, with the hope that at least one of the puns would make them laugh. No pun in ten did.”. Please send me an email with your mailing address, so I can make sure you get a copy of the book!
I am curious on what is the prize. I mean kind of book it is. The other post that I've read is a cookbook, which is interesting since I love to read unique recipes. I agree with Dagmar that various people have different puns. Perhaps no pun in ten did simply indicated that it is hard to please people.
Originally from Chicago, I lived in southern Sweden for nearly 5.5 years, and moved to southern Wales in September 2006. I completed a Ph.D. translation studies in June 2009 at Swansea University, with a dissertation on the translation of children's literature.
Now I live in Norwich, England, where I am a lecturer at the University of East Anglia, and I also work as a translator, writer, and editor.
