Like a Gazillion Contests and a Blogfest

First, I want to say thanks to Laurel at Laurel's Leaves and Sarah McClung at The Babbling Flow of a Fledgling Scribbler. I recently won prizes on both of their blogs. :) Thanks, ladies!

Now for the contests. These really stacked up while I was unplugged, so there are a TON, but some really cool prizes are being given away so be sure to check them all out.

And I think my spacebar is going out on my keyboard (ACK!) so I hope it doesn't crap out on me before I'm finished. Otherwise, things might get a little difficult to read. ;)

1. Christine Danek at Christine's Journey is having a contest to celebrate reaching 100 followers and she's giving away a copy of Hooked by Les Edgerton, a $10 gift card for B&N or Amazon, plus some other really cool stuff. If you're a new follower over there, be sure to let her know I sent you. HURRY! THIS ONE ENDS TODAY.

Wow. That's a lot.

And Karen's contest at Novel's During Naptime is still going, so be sure to enter if you haven't, and if you're hosting a contest and I missed you, let me and I'll add you to the list.

Have a great Wednesday, everyone! :)
