Hi there!
I know it’s a day late, but I had to celebrate my birthday after all. Cakes and parties are over, though. Here are the contest winners!
By the way, just to spread the win evenly, I decided that each contestant could only win once. That way, nobody hogs the prizes :

Winners:
First Prize (2 Books by June Casagrande): CHORVA
Second Prize (1000 EC credits each): KRANJCARZ and TOMGU
Third Prize (500 EC credits each): ALL CONTESTS, ZRIZ, MARS, KAT, SHERRY

If you want to seen the Random.Org results, just leave …

It’s my birthday tomorrow, and you know what that means: the contest is over! We’ve got more than a few contestants now (a lot more than I actually expected, being a new site and all) so I think overall it’s been a success.
Thanks to everyone who joined!
Results will be announced tomorrow

There’s still time to join the contest and win June Casagrande’s books and thousands of EC credits. Joining is easy and there really isn’t a lot of competition, so your odds of winning are seriously up. Prove to the world that a book can be just as enticing as first prize as gadgets (for us nerdy writer folks anyway). Join the contest now!

True, as a new blogger, I also sought out the free web hosting options available online. I didn’t know if my pro-blogging efforts …

Despite its seeming simplicity, a lot of people still can’t figure out how to use the apostrophe properly. You’ll be surprised how so many people still get mixed up when it comes to this simple punctuation mark. How many times have you seen someone type “salad green’s” instead of “salad greens”?
I know it seems confusing (though it most definitely isn’t), but using the apostrophe really shouldn’t be so difficult. Just remember these few important guidelines to using the apostrophe properly:
1. Apostrophes are used to show possession.

With PJN, however, it’s the President and CEO (Kris Jones) who actually responds to your email. Pardon the cussing, but no shit — it’s actually him. I have to say you can’t get any better than that. But you can. PJN has two tools that bloggers can use to maximize their affiliate marketing strategies. You don’t just follow whatever rules the affiliate program offers (of course you still have to go by their guidelines), you can actually talk to the company and propose your own plan for introducing and promoting their products or services.
