Celebrating – AtoZ Winners!

By Michelle Wallace | May 10, 2013 | 55

It's Friday again, which means it's celebration time. This is a weekly hop hosted by Viklit over at Scribblings Of An Aspiring Author.

                               

Before I reveal the winner of my A to Z "whacky definitions" competition, I'd like to make mention of the fact that during April, I participated in another A toZ contest over at DL Hammons' blog, Cruising Altitude 2.0… and I won… wait for it… *drum roll*

                         A $75 AMAZON GIFT VOUCHER! WOO-HOO!

Now you know what that means, dontcha? One guess? Anybody? Yes, my TBR pile has just skyrocketed==================== WHOOSH=============

                                    THANK YOU DL!!

And now it's time to wrap up my AtoZ competition. Twenty two bloggers voted, and there was a total of 48 votes. Thanks once again to all who participated and voted!

                            NANCY LARONDA JOHNSON

    …who scored 6 votes for her “whacky” definition of the word slumgullion! Congratulations Nancy! And since the letter "S" is 19th in the alphabet, that means Nancy's hamper will contain 19 units/items…

                         …..AND THAT'S A WRAP!

So what are you celebrating? Please share with us! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

    Congratulations, Nancy! (Crap, I remembered to promote the voting, but I forgot to vote!)

     

    Congratulations to YOU. And a big thank you. Since you mentioned that you found DL's contest through me, I won a twenty-five dollar gift certificate from DL.

    It's really easy to say this….YOU EARNED IT!  Yes, there was some luck involved, but without the effort you put in you wouldn't have been in that position. Congrats to you again…and to Nancy! 🙂

      There could be a great story there, Hilary… "slugmullion" lends itself to all kinds of wonderful and whacky possibilities…
