May Third Annual MEGA May celebration of Strong Women came to an end Thursady. I hope you enjoyed my humorous family stories and others that were also included. (Photo above from my Death by Painting story. Click here if you missed me telling on my son!)

If you recall I was offering two chances to win books from this blog in May. One was for people who entered their email addresses above in the Yahoo slot to join my egroup, LynCote_to_Readers. I send out an occasional note to readers about what I’m reading, writing, doing and information about contests on other blogs and websites. If that interests you, just look up on the top right and enter your email address (which by the way I keep confidential.)

The winner of two of my books is Marion! Congratulations, Marion.

Secondly, I always celebrate May with the MEGA May basket to which many guest authors donate books to.  The winner of this years 3rd annual MEGA May basket is–drum roll please–Rose! Congratulations, Rose!

Also in May, I always participate in Brenda Novak’s Diabetes Research Auction. The photo above shows what I donated. Vince won the bidding and he’ll be receiving this soon. Thanks, Vince! I will be sending these off this week. Promise.

Now finally, my friend WI author Andrea Boeshaar is offering a complete set of her Civil War series, Seasons of Redemption. Click here to drop by and leave a comment. This drawing ends Monday June 6th so be quick about it!

I love blogging since it gives me a chance to interact with readers regularly. I hope you’ll consider joining my egroup (above right) and considering leaving a comment occasionally. It’s taken a while (since Nov 30, 2008) but I feel like this blog is becoming a two-way street, a good thing.

Happy June!–Lyn
