Still roaming around. Is there a way to see the date of these posts? I was wondering if this 'not a contest" prize bunny was still hopping, and although I can see plenty of new posts, I can't find dates except on the first one. I usually use the dates to see how recent conversations are so that I don't post to some conversation Cleopatra had with her buddies way back when...
Using the Easter Bunnies as a guide, I'm guessing this thread is current. Or that I've really gotten lost and Easter already happened this year. Time flies!!! Erk!
Maria - This is an ongoing thread. Since we're not allowed to have contests here, Got Books? is an "incentive" I offer to all of you who visit faithfully and post comments to let our guest authors know there's someone besides me chatting with them!
At the end of every month I scroll through the comments and write down names of all the people who commented. If you've posted comments on four or more author threads that month (sometimes we have a lot more guest authors, but you only need to comment on four threads), I'll mail you some books, bookmarks and other goodies - sometimes a mystery magazine, sometimes a fun button/pin - you never know!
The books include used ones from my own humongous collection (my husband is thrilled that I'm whittling it down a bit). The package may include books I've just read and sometimes you'll get some brand new books, too.
I'll let the others tell you more about the kinds of books they've received. I'm not sure how long this has been going on - a year, maybe? I'll keep it going as long as you all participate, and as long as the books last. Some months you may receive more than others, especially if I've been to a conference recently. I like to surprise you!
If you want to participate, just remember to post comments on the author threads and send me your address in a personal message here. That's all it takes, and it's open to everyone.
