Everyone please check your emails to see if you are one of the winners. Winners have 24 hours to email me back with their mailing information before new winners will be chosen.

Winners coming soon...

My very first giveaway is now over. It's so exciting! I have emailed the winners, and they will have 48 hours to respond, otherwise new winners will be chosen. I will announce the winners here on the blog once they have gotten back to me. A big thank you to everyone for participating!

I also have another giveaway going on for a children's book with a great, positive message on the subject of bullying going on as well. Be sure to check that out and enter if you're interested. You'll find a link to it under  my Current Giveaways tab.

Giveaway Info and Page Updates

Hi there readers!

I just wanted to remind you that I have a giveaway ending later tonight, and another ending in a few days. Check my current giveaways page for links to those. Once these two are done, I'll be listing my 75+ follower giveaway. I'm going to be getting the items I bought for it soon, so I'm looking forward to that.

I recently had a great idea suggested to me by Jona over at JonababeZ We had been chatting back and forth about winning books, and I mentioned that I had been having a lot of luck with giveaways lately. Jona asked if I had a list of all the books I'd won. I do actually have a list (I love lists!) and I'm going to be creating a page for those, hopefully today.

I'm also wondering if I can ask a small favor of my email subscribers. One of my subscribers recently told me that they weren't getting any email updates. I have been posting the last few days, so I know it's not a lack of posts. I think my feed was over the file size capacity, so that's why the updates weren't getting sent out.  I tooled around with that last night and I think I fixed it but I'm not quite sure. If one of my readers who gets updates by email could let me know if they get this update, I'd be very grateful.

Technical updates, general information and a thank you!

Hello readers!

I just wanted to pop in with a few updates and questions.

First, I know that Google is retiring Google Friend Connect. This won't affect indivuals who have blogger sites but those without blogger sites will be affected. I do have a subscribe by email widget on my site, but I'm wondering what other link up widgets do you all prefer to subscribe by?

Also, I'd like to say a big hello and thank you to all my new followers. I believed I've gained about 5 followers this week, bringing my total to 60. When I reach 75 followers I will hold a giveaway. This leads me to another question, what would you like to see as a prize for a giveaway?

Happy Friday! It's been one of those long weeks this week. What are your reading plans for the weekend? I'm hoping to finish two books
