Black Friday Contest Winners

contest winners

Black Friday 2013I hope everyone had a fabulous holiday season and are staying warm if you also had a crap-load of snow just dump on you. Seriously. Is it any wonder that I’m still sick when I’m out there shoveling a foot of snow off my sidewalks.

Sorry…let me not start on that tangent. Anyway. It’s time to announce all the winners for the Black Friday contests. Those who entered via a rafflecopter widget, you should have been contacted already. Speaking of which, the winner of the event-wide $25 Amazon/BN giftcard was Sebella (the ecard is on it’s way).

For those non-rafflecopter contests, that’s why we’re here now. *grin* I want to thank everyone who stopped by during the event. It was another successful year with a ton of great authors participating. If you missed all the Black Friday craziness, you can check out the stories here.

And just to get it out of the way, winners have 72 hours from the time of this post to email me at jackie at literaryescapism.com (subject: Black Friday Winner) before I draw a new name. Winners of all LE contests are determined by this snazzy plug-in and is completely random.

About Jackie 3282 Articles
I am a 30-something SAHM with two adorable boys and a supportive husband who is very tolerant of my reading addiction. I love to read and easily go through about a dozen books a month – well I did before I had kids. Now, not so much. After my first son was born, I began to take my hobby of reviewing a little more serious and started Literary Escapism to help with my sanity. I love to discuss the fabulous novels I’ve read and meeting all the wonderful people in the book blogging community has been amazing.
