Giveaway Winner and Write On Con Critique

10 Comments

Thank you to everyone who entered Denise Jaden’s LOSING FAITH giveaway. One lucky person has won a signed copy of Denise’s debut novel and a handmade bag featured on the Warehouse Fabrics blog.

And the winner is Jennie Englund! Jennie, I’ll need your mailing address. Robyn, I’ll need to stop by soon to pick up the bag (thanks again!).

Most of you are probably familiar with Write On Con, a free on-line writing conference for kidlit authors. The August conference was a huge success with one small glitch: so many people participated, the server was initially unable to support everyone. In order to make next year’s conference run smoothly and remain free, the Write On Con ladies are hosting an auction tomorrow (Tuesday, September 14).

Eleven Elevensies have donated books, critiques and other prizes. Items will be available for one hour only. Here’s the schedule each author’s donation will go live:

7 AM: Beth Revis

8 AM: Julia Karr
9 AM: Lisa Descrochers
10 AM: Carrie Harris
11 AM: Tom Greenwald
12 PM: Ruta Sepetys
1 PM: Maurissa Guibord
2 PM: Kendare Blake
3 PM: Tess Gratton
4 PM: Caroline Starr Rose
5 PM: Randy Russell
I am donating one of three critiques (the winner will choose which one is the best fit):
the first chapter of a mid-grade novel
OR
the first ten pages of a verse novel
OR
an entire picture book
Stop by Write on Con tomorrow and place your bids!

** Those of you who have participated over at Write on Con can see I really botched the description here! While donations are welcome and can add to your chances of winning, anyone may enter. It’s not an auction. Everything is free.

Sorry about the confusion!

    I remember reading all about Write on Con on the Twitter and blogs and having no idea what it was about. Thanks for clarifying!

    Oh my gosh! Today is SUCH a good day! It’s my lovebug’s 39th birthday, my MS is out on submission to publishers, the kids are all the way back in school, and I won Caroline’s contest!!!

    I will TREASURE the signed copy of LOSING FAITH.

    And believe it or not, I have never owned a purse and am in dire, dire need!

    Thank you so so much, Caroline.

    All this goodness will be paid back, I promise!

    Love, Jennie

    Hey! I randomly stumbled onto your blog, and I just wanted to say that it looked lovely. So I followed. 😉

    What children books are you the author of? I think I’ve seen your name somewhere, but I can’t place it…
