One year ago to the minute (thanks to handy dandy scheduling) I posted my first post, my alpha if you would.... But a year, now that's a long time to stick with something. I'm not doubting my own staying power but yours! For a year you've all been listening to me ramble and rant from books to the BBC, lately a lot about Gene Hunt and The Doctor, but through it all you've been here. To that I saw huzzah! Followed by, would you like some prizes? It's been such a wonderful time meeting and talking to you all that I feel a reward is in order. So, as the year mark denotes... this is going to be big! It will also be ever expanding... well, I'm sure there's some point I'll prolly cut it off, time will run out, but till that time, oh yes!
The Prizes (ever expanding):There is one guaranteed prize, that of a
$25 gift card to Amazon.com. But once I officially hit 200 (I know, I'm technically there with networked blogs, but seeing 195 is so close) I add in a book. I get another 25, I add in another book, and so on and so forth. So this could be one really big prize that could potentially have many winners. Possible books are
Beautiful Creatures,
The Reckoning,
The Princess Bride, the hoard list goes on and on. Cause this is basically a Mega Horde giveaway. And if you'll look below, there is already an added prize! So let's keep those numbers shooting skyward!
THIS GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED
Prize 1: $25 gift card to Amazon.com
Prize 2: The Reckoning, Darkest Powers Book 3 by Kelley Armstrong

4. How to enter:
Answer me this: What are you looking forward to most in the coming year with regards to publishing? From
Mockingjay's release to further developments in e-publishing. What are you on the edge of your proverbial seat for?
5. And for those addicted to getting extra entries:
- +1 for answering the question above
- +2 for becoming a follower
- +10 if you are already a follower
- +10 for each time you advertise this contest - blog post, sidebar, twitter (please @MzLizard), etc. (but you only get credit for the first post, so tweet all you like, and I thank you for it, but you'll only get the +10 once). Also please leave a link!
Thanks to all who entered my giveaways, as you know, if it weren't for you I'd just be writing into the void. It's you who make the difference. That's why I wish I could reward you all, but as it is... only two lucky winners. BUT if you notice, I'm only 3 followers away from 300, and when that day is reached... there will be rewards a plenty. I really should start thinking about something awesome and fun now, like bookmarks and stickers and, of course, books!
Now onto the Jane in June prize, a lovely Giclee print based on artwork by none other than me! You know you want it! So let's see who's getting it... drum roll as Random.org tabulates all the numbers to reveal: Allison, the first poster! See sometimes being first does work to your advantage!
