Welcome to the Ranch

Or more precisely welcome back. Is this the same book that I won on a website not a million miles from here? Or is it a paper copy? I have the e‑book, which I enjoyed and found very interesting. Obviously I shall have to try and win two copies

It's a paper copy now that the book is out. Sometimes we do a MEAP promo and a regular promo on purpose. In this case, I said "this book sounds interesting; we should do a promo" when I was talking to Manning without realizing we had already done one.
