Book Winner Edition: PrimeTime QuickHits

Whew. It’s been a busy weekend. Currently working on a secret project that I’m hoping to share with you in the coming weeks. Finally made time to get to the quick hits, which I guess aren’t so “mid-week” anymore.

Before I get to those though, I need to mention that earlier this week I offered up the chance for a free book to one lucky reader. Friday I made my random selection, and the winner is…Carroll. I’ll be mailing the book out via media mail this week. Carroll has offered to pass it along once she finishes reading it, so I’ll be sure and keep ya informed.

I finally made it back in the carnivals this week after a big 2 week lay off. Thanks, hosts!
