Bloggiesta Day 3 – We Have Winners!
It’s Day 3 of Bloggiesta (but we still have almost a full 24 hours left so jump in at the starting line if you want)! Wow. Your enthusiasm is awesome! People are making Mexican food for dinner, listening to mariachi music and some like Dawn are going all out!
Yesterday we took a whack at the pinata. A pinata full of books!! So who broke the darn thing and won a book of their choice from our awesome sponsors: Scholastic, Hachette Book Group, Peachtree Publishers, Lisa Roe, Publicist and Bloomsbury Publishing?
Well . . . J.T. Oldfield from Bibliofreak has arms! Those before her just couldn’t do it but when she took a whack, books went flying everywhere! Not only did she snag a book but we had bloggers flying in from the sidelines and frantically scooping up the goods!
Joyful from Joyful Journey used her elbows and did some damage and also emerged victorious! But wait. Angela from Bookish Blather is a sneaky one too. She crawled into the mayhem and crawled out with a book as well! Congrats ladies!! (J.T. will get first choice, then Joyful and then Angela. I’ll be emailing you for details.)
Don’t forget you can connect with other Bloggiesta participants by subscribing to the shared Bloggiesta RSS feed, follow @Bloggiesta on Twitter, and use the hashtag #bloggiesta to join the chatter. Miss Remmers’ was kind enough to put together a Twitter list of participants.
I’ll be posting the finish line post about mid-day today, so watch for that. But we officially go until early tomorrow morning for you die-hards! Carry on!
Hey you! Yes. You! I've noticed that you've stopped by to visit a few times! But I don't know who you are. Why don't you take a moment and introduce yourself. Don't be scared. I try not to bite. I know you're a lurker but I'd love to hear your thoughts about what's been bringing you here. And if you haven't done so already, don't forget to never miss a post by subscribing to my feed or receiving updates by email. Thanks for visiting!

I’m still plugging away here, on my tasks.
While I’ve finished most of the ones I listed for my “Focus Blog,” I have so many blogs, that I’ve wandered over to the others to do a little “blog love.”
Thanks for giving us the motivational opportunity!

on January 10th, 2010 at 12:02 pmWoo-hoo! This is definitely the best pinata I’ve ever cracked! Especially because I’m doing Game On diet and so candy would be bad.
