500 Posts Contest Winners

Winners, come on down!



I couldn't rope Frodo into picking winners tonight, so Random.org did the honours:



On 7, 8 and 9 May, there were 17 commenters and the winner is Theresa!

On 10 May there were 3 and the winner is Liz!

On 11 May there were 2 (counting Carrie's, which Blogger ate, but is in my Gmail) and the winner is Carrie!

Blogger was out on the 12th, and yesterday, there were 2; the winner is J. L.!

The winner for today by default is Rach!

Plus! Bonus Prize! To Jill, for commenting more than once!

And... The winner overall out of 23 commenters is Susan! Your prize is 20$ at Amazon or Paypal.

Kyaaa! I NEVER win prize drawings. [g] So cool! Thank you so much!

PS - give a scratch to dear Frodo for me, if you will. He reminds me of my sister's cat Jasper, who has been with her since he was a kitten (and since I was a little girl) -- the guy is now older than Methuselah in cat years but still a total lovebug.

Woot, default or not, I'll take it :D

I'd love to read Trance by Linda Gerber - may I have that one? Will email you with my address :)

Hugs,

Rach

Great! I'm glad Blogger's snafu didn't derail all your fun. Though my commenting and posting has been a bit messed up to say the least. Congrats to all the winners.

Congrats to all the winners!

Congratulations Jill! I wonder if Frod0 - and Sam - will live till 40? The oldest cat on record lived to 39, apparently...

Congratulations Rach! I loved Linda Gerber's book, can't wait to share it.

Thanks Zan Marie - I tried to revisit some of the blogs I'd commented on, but I lost a lot of my original thoughts :-( I save way too much, though; snafus or not, there's no way I can start saving all my comments eveywhere.

Thank you Denise!

Ooh, you won't be disappointed, Theresa (I hope)! I love that book!

Congratulations Liz!

Thanks Melissa and Nas!

Congratulations J. L.!

Thank you Naina!

Big congratulations, Susan!

(so many exclamation marks...)

Thank you Tara - does this mean your pc troubles are over?

Hiya. Guess what? You're invited! I am starting up a networking community for supporters of the LGBT community, as well as readers and writers of LGBT fiction and nonfiction, called Everything LGBT. The blog will discuss LGBT novels, movies, music, rights/issues, current events, etc. I would love it if you would join and share the link with whomever you can. I believe that media will bring the next big change, and I want to help to make that happen. Thanks.
