Day 14 Winner: Carrie Harris (and other news)

The Day 14 winner of the “surprise prize” is Carrie Harris! Congrats! Once Carrie chooses which prize she wants from the choices I sent her, I’ll update this post.

UPDATE: Carrie chose a signed copy of Sucks to Be Me

And if you haven’t already, don’t forget to enter the Grand Prize Contest! Keep the names comin’!

In other news, I picked up some fun vampire stuff today to make up some little “vampire goodie bags” to give away at the Teen Read Week event I’m doing in October. Kinda lucky that it’s getting close to Halloween. You can find all kinds of cool stuff now. And in even more “other news” I’ve gotten a bit of writing in on the sequel. Not as much as I would like, but getting there. Friday was actually a pretty good day — I got in about 1,300 words.
