Winner of Quote Contest Announced!

Thanks to everyone who entered my contest last week. I enjoyed reading your thoughts on Cervantes' quote, "All in good time."

I guess the bottom line is: All in good time!
(This frustrating truth may be one reason why liquor stores have such great business despite the economy.)

The winner - drawn randomly from the entrants - is:
Sarah Butland!!!

Sarah wins a signed copy of my novel The Girl Next Door.

Congratulations, and please e-mail me (Ldymcbeth@aol.com) with your details, Sarah!

Stay tuned for a new contest next week, everyone!

Contest Winner!!!!

My apologies for posting my contest winner a day late!!! There has been a bit of madness in my life this week, between writing, college applications and school vacation.

The winner of my surprise box of ARCs is Lisa Reiss, who posted such a great story about a gift from her daughter. Tooooo sweet!!!

Today is supposed to be Guest Blog Friday, but my intended guest blogger had surgery recently, and she is not feeling well enough to contribute today. I put in a request to another friend, and we'll see how that goes. It's a tough week to contribute, I know ;)

So, we may have to content ourselves with the knowledge that many guest bloggers will come our way next year. Let it be fruitful and literary and bright.

Thanks for sticking with me and my ravings :) On Monday, there will be a consideration of the importance of dialogue. Just the thing for the new year!

Cheers,
Selene
