My blog isn't a year old yet and I already have FAR more followers than I ever thought would be interested in reading what I have to say here ;-) I have learned so much from "meeting" all of you, and though blogging is a super time-suck I enjoy every minute of it! And I hit a nice number today - 333 (thanks, Manzanita!).
To say THANK YOU to all my followers I'm giving away a $10 Amazon gift card!
Just think of all the $0.99 e-books you could buy with that! (For those of you who don't do math, it's TEN plus a bit of change...;-)). To make it fun I decided to have a little treasure hunt, and since we just had Easter, it's golden Easter eggs you'll be hunting for. Here's what you gotta do:
- Be a follower of this blog (duh, this whole thing is to say thanks to FOLLOWERS!)
- Visit the other pages on this blog (About Me, Book Reviews etc) as well as the sidebar and count all the golden Easter eggs you see.
- For an additional entry tell me where you found the X-marked Easter egg.
- You don't have to tweet or facebook this if you don't feel like it, but if you do I'd greatly appreciate it :-) (I even wrote out this lovely 84 character message to make it easy for you to copy and paste ;) Count the Easter eggs and you could win a $10 Amazon gift card! http://bit.ly/kykxAV )
- You have until the end of next Thursday, the 5th of May. I'll randomly draw a winner on Friday 6th May.
THIS TREASURE HUNT IS NOW OVER.
Great idea! I'll definitely try it once April is done. :-)
ReplyDeleteAn actual treasure hunt. What a great idea for X.
ReplyDeleteWhat a very clever way of using X!
ReplyDeleteSounds intriguing....I laughed when I saw this post as anotehr blog had come up with the exact same title for today, too!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on all the followers. Well-deserved!
ReplyDeleteSuper idea to celebrate, Rachel! Once April is over...I'm swamped now.
Did you see the shout-out I gave you?
Too tired to hunt right now but congrats on all the followers!
ReplyDeleteOh, you're so generous! Congrats on all the followers. Well deserved!

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun contest, Rachel. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteWow, that was fun :D

Congrats on the followers - 333 is a pretty cool number (incidentally, if you follow numerology at all, 3 is actually the number of creativity! How cool is that?)
ReplyDeleteI hereby give you permission to continue posting randomness! Lol...
Count me in - I am off to count eggs! :-)
What a fantastic idea.
ReplyDeleteI will do this as soon as I get back home to a proper computer.
If I post this message I will get all the other message replies to remind me about this contest. Lol
Love the blog by the way, looking really good.

ReplyDeleteHope i was in time :-)
ReplyDeletejust got home and counted the golden eggs. My eyes still have not quite adjusted to all the gold...lol
I have been staring at the relative merits of 'white' today as i hunted for a shirt for the boys to wear to the wedding. lazy sods made me get them.
anyway,
Great and novel competition.
Have a great evening,
Sarah
