Oodles and scads of giveaways

I'm starting out with a new drawing for "Agent Bishop," since Kristen never left me any way to reach her. The new winner is: Kimberly Job! Congrats Kim, I'll contact you to arrange delivery.

Now, there are tons of other giveaways going on right now, so I thought I'd share. We'll start with Danyelle Ferguson's blog where she's giving away two copies of Rhonda Hinrichsen's new book "Missing." Check that out here.

She's also part of a big giveaway for the Original Scrapbox 12 Blogs of Christmas Giveaway where they are giving away the EZ View Craft Desk. The company is also giving away a craft desk to the Children's Justice Center if they get enough click-throughs to their website. Having been a foster parent and had reason to become familiar with this great place, I heartily support them. They do a great service to children who have been severely neglected and abused. Check out this post on Danyelle's blog, along with posts on the following blogs (there's lots of ways you can enter to win!): Rachelle's, Lou's, Priscilla's, Vanilla Joy, Capadia Designs, Crafty Makes, Stephanie's, Nichole, Auntithesis, Park City Girl, and Lovely Little Handmade's.

This is the LAST day to enter this contest so don't wait!

Anne Bradshaw is giving away a copy of an autographed DVD of George Dyer's show which was recorded live on her blog here. She's also part of a giveaway for Laurie Lewis's book "Dawn's Early Light," which you can learn about here.

On another note, I went to a launch party Wednesday night for Nichole and CIndy's book, "Mormon Mishaps and Mischief" where they sold something like 80 books in three hours. Seriously, it was the coolest launch party I've ever been to. Priced at only $9.95 each, the books are priced right to give away as Christmas gifts for visiting teachers, home teaching families and friends. This is the cake I made for their launch, with each thing representing something from each story.

This was my first tiered cake, but it turned out reasonably well, I think. I really enjoy working with fondant and love trying new things. Obviously I've got a ways to go before I can even remotely compete with the staff at the Pink Cake Box, but you gotta keep trying!

If you want to buy a few copies of Mormon Mishaps and Mischief, you can attend one of Cindy and Nichole's signings over the next couple of week.s. And the story I submitted is on page 75! Here's their schedule:


Dec 12, 11 am-1:00 pm
Barnes and Noble Gateway
Salt Lake City, UT

Dec 17, 6-9 pm
Borders
Provo, UT

Dec 19, 11 am-1:00 pm
Barnes and Noble
Sandy, UT

If you want this book, but can't make it to one of the signings, it's available online at Barnes and Noble, and Amazon.
