Hi all,
In the first 31 days of this year, 42 people signed up to write for at least 31 minutes every day. For those of you who tried but didn’t make it daily, the trying is just as important sometimes. Judging from the comments and the emails, most of you still had a great productive writing month, and learned things about yourselves and your writing. Not to mention, most of you wrote a lot.
For the 32 of you who stayed in the running to the bitter end — many of you also writing more than 31 minutes daily — cue in Queen, because yes, you’re the champions, dears, and I am so proud of you! Take what you learned last month, and carry these lessons forward! The projects you have completed — and made progress toward — are the icing on the cake.
And now, for the prize drawing.
I wish I could present a gift certificate to every one of you, because you all totally deserve it. It was fun, though, I have to say, picking out a giveaway winner with a nice number of participants. My daughter helped me choose, as always. I trust in her hand.
And the winner is: Christie Wright Wild!
Congrats, Christie, the winners and all the participants! Christie, please email me at katiawrites (at) gmail (dot) com with your mailing address, so I can rush the $31 Barnes & Noble gift card to your house.
According to a Russian superstition, the way you start the New Year is significant in that it will determine how the rest of your year goes. For our sakes this year, I hope it’s true. May you all have a marvelously fruitful, productive rest of 2013!
Love,
KR
