It's time to roll out another contest in honor of fall's approach and in celebration of the blog tallying 50,000 visitors!
Since just about all my bloggy friends {Insert Hank Williams, Jr.'s All My Rowdy Friends tune here} are neck deep in the business of working on their WIPs and/or just keeping up with life in general, I'll make it easy:
- Pick from among the 10 photos I've taken recently
- Create a corresponding book title
- Leave your entry (Photo number, title and genre) in a comment
- One per customer, please
- Contest runs through Sunday, October 4th, midnight Central time
- Winner gets choice of Writer's Delight or Cajun Goodies package
