Not free, but still well worthwhile at 99 cents: The Big Time
I’ll be springing for the rest, probably: Conjure Wife and Our Lady of Darkness and all the rest. If you’ve never read Leiber, I heartily recommend him, and every sword and sorcery fan should be familiar with his Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser books.

I’ve been working on the jewelry, which got pretty much finished up today. We’ll be giving away 30-35 of those at the party, plus books, stickers, CDs, and handmade journals.
Here’s a bunch of the pieces laid out: Here's most, but not all of the pieces. There's still about twenty to be done at this point.

I’m working on a piece for the SFWA Blog about promotional giveaways. What are the best — and worst — ones you’ve seen? What resources would you recommend to people? The stickers are the interior art, done in a nice size that’s big enough not to lose but small enough to be able to use in a number of places.
These are waiting to get filled with resin. They'll take a few days to cure, but when ready will look like glass, and all the roughness here, created by brush marks in the mod podge, will be imperceptible.
