Well, I thought myself a little crazy hosting 4 giveaways between my blog and Bloody Bookish<\/a> at one of the busiest times of the year.<\/p>\n

But it was fantastic meeting so many new people and seeing so many new visitors on my sites!<\/p>\n

I hope you\u2019ll all stick around to follow my adventures in 2012, when I am going to try to break my personal best and write up a storm<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But for now, enjoy the rest of your holiday…And check to see if you are one of the winners of my giveaways!<\/p>\n

FIRST – the winner of the coveted Like Flies to Honey prize pack<\/strong> in my Holiday Hop contest<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Congratulations….<\/p>\n

HEATHER COX!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019ve won the issue of Shroud 8, various and sundry bee-themed paper goodies and MaryRajotte.com mini bookmarks. I’ll be in touch in the coming days to get your contact information. Your name will also go into the hat to win a Kindle Fire<\/strong> from the main Holiday Hop<\/a> site. GOOD LUCK!<\/p>\n

SECOND – the winner of the 12 Days of Creepfest Contest<\/a>…<\/p>\n

Congratulations…<\/p>\n

SHANE DEMONE<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

You have won the opportunity to completely customize a character who will appear in one of my upcoming stories!<\/p>\n

In the coming weeks (probably after Jan. 1), I will send you a character profile to fill out, and then I will take your creation and write him or her into one of my stories. I\u2019m probably as excited about this giveaway as you are!<\/p>\n

If you didn\u2019t win, why not head over to Bloody Bookish<\/strong> to see if you won in the other 12 Days of Creepfest contest<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Otherwise, thanks for entering, for all your comments, and for taking an interest in me (or at least in my swag!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
