100th Post Celebration & Giveaway

July 11, 2008

Okay-dokey. This here is the 100th post on this, my beloved book-bloglet. I started in late January, with two little welcome posts and have rapidly moved up from there. In a short six months, I have found a wonderful community of book-bloggers. In honor of this historic event, I’m having a giveaway!

Official Giveaway Prize

The prize is a book-lover’s package:

a book of your choice (up to $15)
a bookmark
a set of book plates
a box of tea or hot chocolate (your choice)

Official Giveaway Rules

1. Leave a comment on this post as your official entry.

2. Get an extra entry for every additional comment made on any post on my blog during the month of July.

3. Open to anyone, anywhere, as long as you have a way to get mail.

4. The contest runs through July 31st. I’ll put all entries in a spreadsheet and use the random number generator to select a winner. The winner will be announced on August 1st.

Good luck!

(Thanks to The Kool-Aid Mom at In the Shadow of Mt. TBR for the rules template. Make sure to check out her giveaway.)

18 Literary Feline July 12, 2008 at 10:26 pm: Congratulations on reaching your 100th post! The blogging community turned out to be something bigger and yet more intimate than I ever imagined it would be. It’s even better with you in it.
19 The Kool-Aid Mom July 12, 2008 at 11:54 pm: Always a sucker for a free book… WoOt! And cool rule thing-y and link back :-D That’s how I found you ;-)

I like your speed of reading ratings, too. I like the 75s, but the 35s are good, too. I’ve got one I’ve been nursing for two or three years that’s about a speed limit of 2. You can only read it a paragraph at a time, then you have to digest for a week, before coming back.
20 Laura July 13, 2008 at 11:59 am: I followed you here from wordpress to see what you are reading and I am very interested in how you analyze the process of reading.
Why did you decide to leave wordpress?
