Thanks to the almost 100 of you who entered the Book Title contest! I couldn't believe the amount of entries or the quality of titles to go with photographs submitted. GREAT JOB, y'all!
If you missed the original post, read it and the cool title entries here.
The hard part was choosing just two winners. I finally put the top 10 entires (written out on sticky notes) in front of me and asked myself, "Self, which books would you take from the bookstore shelf and buy just by virtue of the cover art and title?" Having the help of several extra sets of reader eyeballs helped too.
So without further ado, the winners are:
The Writer's Package -- Tere Kirkland of The Lesser Key. What a wonderful title she crafted for picture #4. It actually made me laugh. I know I'd want to buy this book and take it home to devour: "Mary J. Freed's Summer of Stupidity" - Women's Fiction.
The Cajun Goody Package -- B.J. Anderson's entry for photo #7: "Blending In: & Other Essentials for Staying Alive in High School" - Young Adult. B.J.'s book does sound like essential school equipment!
{***I'll need your mailing addresses ladies!}
And the close runners-up were:
Mandy at Mandy's Life After 30 for photo #3 - "If It Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It: A Healthy Guide To Cajun Marriage" - Non-fiction/Self-help.
Regina Green at Red Bird Chronicles (a wonderful poet herself) for #9 - "the color of north" - Poetry.
Sandra Leigh's "Touching Gauguin" - Romance - from photo #1.
Chromiumman for #8 - "Turn, Turn, Turn: My Summer as a Carnie" -Autobiography.

I'll be running another fun contest soon, and in the meantime, don't forget to continue leaving links to your favorite online indie artists/artisan's "shops" so I can compile them into Shoppers' Resource Guide for the holidays. Thanks!
