We interrupt this weekend to bring you the winner of my blog giveaway!!
(I promised a signed copy of my new book to one of my commenters during All the World week
here at Liz in Ink.)
Some of you suspected I was trying to wiggle my way out of my vow, because my blog went silent soon after. And it’s true — I did escape to the beach for one last gasp of summer fun but I did not forget about all of you.
In fact, it was right there on South Padre Island that I did the drawing.
Right there in the sand.
(Which seems appropriate since the book opens on the beach.
And is being published by Beach Lane Books.
You gotta love a good theme…)
So. First, I dug a hole…
Then I put all the entries in the hole. (There were sixty!!!)
I was going to ask these guys to draw the winner, but they were busy…
So then I thought, maybe these guys. But they were busy, too…
I asked this guy, but he was kind of crabby.
Luckily, my own Tall One volunteered. Here she is, picking a winner!
And you guys, because there were so many of you and you were all so kind and I am so overcome with all my luck and gratitude, I actually asked her to pick two. I wish I could give away sixty but I think my mom and dad would be bummed since they’re sorta hoping for a copy.
So, my hearty congratulations to ….
TANITA DAVIS
and
ERIN HARDY JOHNSON!!!!
(Tanita and Erin — please email me at Liz@LizGartonScanlon.com with your snail mail address and instructions on who the book should be inscribed to. Yeehaw!!!)
And thanks, everyone, for playing….
Congratulations to Tanita and Erin!
Yes — hurrah!
