August 11 will be the one-year anniversary of me launching my blog.<\/b><\/span> I had no idea how difficult, time-consuming, and ultimately rewarding it would be. Since I’m very proud of making it a year (even if some months I didn’t write very much {ahem}), I asked the people who answered The Questions<\/a> if they would willing to donate a copy of their book(s) or some art for a dSavannah Rambles anniversary contest.<\/p>\n

I am honored and grateful (and thankful!) (and glad!) that so many of them said YES! Aren’t these GREAT prizes? (Note: click the link on their name to read their answers to The Questions. Or, if it’s an item I made, click the link to learn more about it.)<\/p>\n

To enter the contest today, scroll below the list of prizes and use the rafflecopter widget.<\/span> And come back tomorrow for more chances to win!<\/p>\n
