Bloggers over Borders- giveaway winners

                                                    here


Hi everyone,

   Sandy has randomly drawn five winners for my giveaway.  The following will each be receiving a copy of "Toronto: A Photographic Portrait", by Mike Filey.  They are:

In Joy and Sorrow
A Poet's Circus
I Know, Right?
Leah
Past and Future Tense

Congratulations, your books will be mailed this week.

In addition I'll be sending out a commemorative letter to all of you who have participated, as my way of saying thanks for your support.  Currently I'm in the midst of matching all of you with another blogger; over the course of the next two or three days I'll be e-mailing everyone with further information.

I've decided to make this an annual event, hopefully growing more each year. Thanks everyone for doing your part to make this a success.  It's been a lot of work but also a lot of fun.

I look forward to hearing any stories you have as this is set in motion.

  6. I am so fascinated by your Secret Fridays. I have Fridays off and do most of my blog catching up then, and I always come across that post - it's such a great idea - so interesting. What a great way to share in a way that's safe and comforting.

  10. I think you should give away a coffee table next time, so we can have somewhere to store our coffee table books

  11. Just so everyone knows, the picture above isn't the cover of the book, although it does have tons of fantastic colour photos. The book itself is about 8 1/2" x 11".

    Tony, I'll fax you a coffee table.
