Mardi Gras Wrap up/Grand prize Winners

Thanks to Elana Johnson for throwing this CRAZ-EE PAR-TEE with me!

After the hectic last few weeks preparing for the party, I've decided to not blog this week and focus on my new book. I also want to try and visit some of my new followers during my breaks and we all know how long that takes!

To all my lovely new followers: thank you and don't give up on me just b/c I'm out this week. I will be back on my regular blogging schedule next Monday.

To those who dont know, I give a 30 day money back guarantee. If I don't make you laugh at least three times, go "hmmmm" at least twice, and think "I feel the same way" at least once, you have my permission to UNFOLLOW me :)

Don't forget: Next Monday's Marvelous Marketers are Alyson Noel, Melissa Marr, and Kelley Armstrong talking about how they've been setting up their new group book tour that starts this summer.

(FYI - all drawings last week were done by assigning each entry a number or numbers for the Scavenger Hunt. They were assigned as the entries came in and I used a random number generator to choose.)
