The Second Contest Winner

by JM

writing-pad.jpgBefore I announce the winner, I would like to apologize for being ‘out of the office’ this weekend. I promise I will answer all comments today (my time zone). You go and have an anniversary holiday and suddenly things spiral into craziness… But yes, I will be answering all comments soon. No worries about that.

Now, on to the winner! The real reason you’re reading this post, right? Please join me in saying congratulations to the second winner in the 100 Comments Contest:

Penelope!

Penelope has won with her comment on the post The Organic Novel:

“Very exceptional thoughts on writing, and I agree a novel is an organic thing that grows as we write it. Of my three some grew from the characters, some from a concept, and some from the setting.�

Out of the luck of the draw, Penelope will receive a fun pack of goodies including a stationary pack, stickers, an Australian postcard, and more. As soon as I receive her mailing address, it will be sent off in the Australian Post!

Another congratulations to Penelope for winning the second prize. Her comment landed on the right number and yours could, too. Remember, you have not one but three more chances to win, the biggest prize(a totally awesome Aussie prize pack) going to the 100th commenter.

Keep stopping by and speaking your mind for your chance to win.
