What a great response to the Win A Book contest! So, I'm going to announce the winner . . . at the end of the newsletter! :)

The correct answer to the contest is 3 donkeys. Yes, we acquired more animals this past weekend. They are very friendly - just like big dogs. Thanks for the great donkey names! We're having fun with the possibilities. Drop by the blog to leave your suggestions.

Several more of you have entered stories for the upcoming Chicken Soup books. YAY!! I'm so proud of you! Keep it up! Unfortunately, you don't hear instantly from them. They collect all of the stories and poems first before making any decisions. If your story is chosen as a possibility, you will hear from them anywhere from a month to six months AFTER the DEADLINE.

Hey, what are you working on now? I've got a girl's teen devotional that I'm preparing. More about it later . . .

Ok - you've waited long enough. The winner of the book of HER choice (in record time, I might add) is: Linda Snider. Congratulations, Linda! Let me know which book you'd like to receive.

I'll have some more contests for the holiday season. Although, adults - I gave you a slight advantage this time, sending out the newsletter while the many students on my list were still in school. Next time, I might wait until they're home so they can have a chance. Wink, wink. We'll play again soon.

My love to you all,

Paula
