The Adventures of Tilda Pinkerton–And We Have a Winner!

by

TildaPinkertonI’ve been dashing around like…well, like Tilda Pinkerton in her magical hats! Which would explain why I’m just now drawing a winner for Angela Shelton’s fun-o-rific book, The Adventures Of  Tilda Pinkerton. But I threw all the names in–wait for it–a hat, and pulled out…

GAIL HANDLER!

So, Gail, you’ll be hearing from me today and your hat will be winging its way to you before you can say “tinctumutation.” (It’s in the book.)

For the rest of you, you can look it up in the dictionary. (But it would be a lot more fun if you read The Adventures of Tilda Pinkerton!)

You Better Watch Out! (Writer-ly Things Are Coming to Town! Er, the Blog)

I’m making a list here, so you can check off each of the writerly things!

1. I love lists. And I wrote about the writer who makes a wish list over at The Muffin today. I managed to work in W. B. Yeats and one of my favorite poems, …hold on a tic. I’m not just going to tell you. (But I think it’ll be worth the read!)

2. Remember, I’m giving away a copy of The Adventures of Tilda Pinkerton on Fun Friday! Dash away here to read more about this fun middle-grade novel and how you can win!

3. I have a surprise guest visiting tomorrow with another middle grade novel and she’s giving away…well, you’ll just have to drop in tomorrow to find out. But trust me. You will squeal like a kid on Christmas Day if you win it!

4. I have an Etsy Christmas bookish thing coming in the mail and I hope it will be here in time for a giveaway. Because,  in the spirit of Scrooge and the gang, I would like to say thank you very much to all who drop in every day. I only have the one gift, but the sentiment expressed is for each and every on of you!
