Timely interview with Alyssa

I've had an unexpected family event that has prevented me from fishing going through the queries completely. I wont be able to announce winner until Monday - sorry :(

==========

The contest is now closed. We had over 100 entries.

I loved reading all the PAY IT FORWARD posts so thank you for participating.

Also, I appreciate everyone taking the step to put your query out there for everyone to see. Sometimes, that is the hardest part. There are so many good ones, I'm worried I won't be able to choose!

The top 5 will be announced on Monday, 2/13!

It just so happens my friend over at Mother Write Repeat did an interview this week with Alyssa.

Check it out!

Have a great weekend.

    I can't wait to see who the winners are. There were so many great entries. I wouldn't want to be the one who judges them. :)

    Family first! As eager as we all are to hear the results, we've all been there and understand that sometimes life requires a reordering of priorities. I hope everything turns out okay.
