From June of 2009 until November of 2009, I participated in the Text Novel.com contest. After months and months of posting excerpts of my new paranormal romance entitled "Courting Demons" and months and months of contests and begging for votes...I'm proud to announce that I finished the first round in 11th place! This qualified me as one of twenty semi-finalists who will move on to the second round. Woot!
Now that the voting is over, we wait until next week when Dorchester Publishing editors will announce the top 10 finalists selected from the 20 semi-finalists! I await their decision with delirious anticipation. Refusing to give up the hope and dream but terrified of not being on the list at the same time!
While I wait for those results...I want to announce the long awaited winner of my Grand Prize Gift Basket that keeps on Giving Contest held at my website for the past 5 months! This basket has been filled all throughout the months with little goodies, gifts, trinkets, and donations from family members alike. It contains one item for each original vote that I received during the Text Novel Round one of voting. The subscription votes didn't count for this prize...only the original thumbs up votes.
I'm overwhelmed and honored to announce that I received 255 votes! Oh, my!
So, now...I've gathered it all together and I'm ready to ship to one lucky voter! Via random draw from all the registered user names...
The Grand Prize goes to...
MollyP! Congrats and please contact me to claim your prize!
A sincere thanks to everyone who voted, subscribed, commented, and followed my story chapter by chapter. Your support and encouragement was what got me through the long weeks of this contest.
Don't forget to come back to the blog tomorrow for my one and only contest of November! There will be 3 prizes up for grabs including books, chocolate and much much more!
