book giveaway!



“Can I have your autograph?” I look up from my coffee and smile. She must be waiting for the speaker I’m assisting at the conference. But she hands me a pen.

“You want my autograph?” I ask, incredulous. After all, I share the writing credits with fifty other Moms in the compilation book.

“Oh, I do!” The woman insisted, glancing at my pink designated-author pin. “You never know. You might really BE somebody someday!”

Right.

It’s not very often that I’m speechless, but this comment did the trick. I just signed her book and smiled.

It’s a privilege to be included in this fifteenth anniversary compilation book from Hearts at Home, I’m Glad I’m a Mom! This book would make a great Mother’s Day gift for any Mom, young or old. The stories will make you laugh, cry, and in case you’ve forgotten, they’ll remind you why you’re glad you’re a Mom.

Leave me a comment or send me an email for a chance to win a free copy! Baby b. will draw the name on Monday morning, so I’ll leave the contest open until then. The contest is open to anyone, anywhere in the world.

And if you win, I’ll even sign it. With my real name. Because you never know. I might really BE somebody someday!

mommanator -- Yes, I am Somebody! And it has nothing to do with my blog or my published writing. Psalm 139 tells me the truth about who I am really...who we all are...and it's good news. :-)

And reading all of your comments, I want to send everyone a book! Which is why I will never make any actual money on my writing! ;-)

Oh. Wow. Why do we talk, sometimes? ;)

I'm not a mom, so I'm not sure exactly how the book would apply, but it would be cool to have something in hand (and not just in-computer) that you had written. Plus the autograph, of course.

Greetings! What a delightful book. I always tell people that my two teenage sons are what I am most proud of. I have been a SAHM since the birth of my oldest son. That is almost 20 years. I have seen each boy's first smile, step and heard their first word! Wouldn't change a thing.....Please enter me in your drawing for this wonderful book.
Thanks,Cindi

Ummm...wow, people really have a way of trying to lift you up and tear you down at the same time, you know?

Being a mama, a wife, and a llama owner is a lot of work, and personally, something I believe makes you somebody...today. :)
