Second-Chance Giveaway (Plus Winners Announced)

by | May 27, 2013 | books, giveaway | 109 comments

Greetings, once again, fellow readers!

Have you ever been offered a second chance? I have. The theme of second chances fascinates me. When I ponder how musicians, athletes, actors, writers, everyday people, women, children, marriages, and friendships have benefited from second chances my mind envisions all sorts of fun and intriguing scenarios.

Since I write about second chances, it seems fitting that I hold a second-chance gift basket giveaway, for all who didn’t win last week.

One lucky winner will win a basket full of fun—all three of my books, including Pennsylvania Patchwork, and a pretty bird bookend, a beautifully bound journal, two mugs, tea, and a few chocolate bon bons! The perfect basket for some great summer reading!

To enter, simply leave a comment below on this blog post. If you want an extra entry, follow me on Twitter and leave another comment below on this blog post letting me know your Twitter handle. You can also get another entry by liking my page on Facebook and leaving another comment below on this blog post letting me know you liked my page. That’s THREE possible ways of winning! You have until Sunday at 11:59 p.m. PDT to enter. Only those in the continental U.S. are eligible to win.

And the winners of Pennsylvania Patchwork and Leaving Lancaster from last week’s giveaway are:

Dana Lampert
Shaun Renee
Sharma Darby
Rebecca Gonzales
Jan Sherrill
Jody Rigle
Susan Lulu
Juanita Cook
Deborah Malone

And the winner of the basket from last week’s giveaway is . . . Johnda Scott!

All winners, please email your mailing address to caitlin {at} litfusegroup {dot} com. Congratulations!

    What a wonderful gift basket! Since I already have your books, I think if I won this prize I would donate it to the silent auction at our Alumni Luncheon and give other classmates a chance to acquaint themselves with your literary magic! Carolie Graddon
