Winners and a Bit of This and That

Winners:
Mary Gray has won the Class of 2k11/Elevensies swag pack for October’s One Sentence Debut Reviews. Congrats, Mary!

In order to win an ARC of Hilary Wagner’s THE WHITE ASSASSIN, commenters had to identify Hilary’s favorite mid-grade novel that included rodents. Only one person got it right — Debra Driza (For those of you who are curious, it’s THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS). When I contacted Debra to tell her she’d won, she told me she was already planning on buying a copy of Hilary’s book and to feel free to give it to someone else. I picked Kimberly Sabatini, who said her boys love series. Here’s a new one to add to their collection, Kim!

May B. Odds and Ends:
Two more weeks to sign up your classroom, library, or reading circle to win the May B. Book Club Kit giveaway.

The Class of 2k12:
For those of you who have signed up to follow The Class of 2k12 blog through Google Reader Connect, there seems to be a current problem. But no worries; we’re working on it. Kathryn Burak‘s recent post, Silence. Exile. Cunning. And Faith , is a must read for writers at any point in the journey.
