"A Candle Loses Nothing By Lighting Another Candle" - Father James Keller


Friday, November 25, 2011

Welcome to the Black Friday Book Bonanza at ABA!


I look forward to Black Friday every year. I don’t get up extremely early, nor do I fight crowds to get an gift at the best price. But I do spend the day shopping, kicking off the holiday shopping season, with my mom. We meet for breakfast and go over Christmas lists from the kids. We always happen upon a few great deals and just enjoy our day, although it is always a real shop till you drop day :)

So, for my giveaway this year, I decided I would shop for my followers while I’m out. So, I can’t say exactly what my giveaway will be. It will include one of my print autographed books, but I will also be shopping for something to go with the book while I’m out on Black Friday. If I can’t find anything good, then I will probably make something to go with the book as one of my favorite stops on Black Friday is the craft store - I love to make a few Christmas gifts each year too.

To enter, the only mandatory thing you have to do is be a follower of the blog (GCF or Networked) and comment with your email address so I can contact you if you win!

    I'm usually a black Friday early morning shopper. But this year my DH and I are celebrating our 10 year anniversary in Jamaica. So while I'm waiting for the DH to wake up to start our day I figured I would hop online and see what was going on.
    Thanks for the giveaway!

    There's a sense of mystery and anticipation at not knowing what book will be given away. :) There are several of your titles I would love to get my hands on, Kiki, but I'd be excited about any of them. Thank you for the giveaway!
