This is just a copy and paste from what I just posted on the blog. It's just too darn long to rewrite it again.

Today is the day to post all the contest winners. Everyone who has won a prize from our grand opening contests has already been notified by email. Winners are listed below. I have excluded their last names for confidentiality reasons.

Contests and Prizes

Statue of Isis for answering our contest question for Kindred - the winner is Melissa

Ice Cream and Chocolate Lovers Cookbooks for answering our contest question for The Kandy Shoppe - the winner is Muriel

(I asked Muriel to send me her favorite recipes and I will post them here on the blog when she does).

Leather Writing Journal for answering our contest question for Passion’s Tapestry is Jennifer

Those were are 3 main contest prizes. Congratulations to our winners.

A second group of prizes was autographed copies of each of the books. I had 4 of the winners thank me but told me to use their copies for other contests and prizes. So thank you to Shawna, Michelle, Taryn, and Melissa for donating back your copy. The remainder of the copies go to Jennifer, Jennifer (yes they are different people), Steven, Shirley, Debbie, Dianne, Lisa, Aditya, Kari, Tanya, and Sarah.

The Header was won by Melissa but she is not a writer nor does she know any. This is copied and pasted from her email with her permission. “Thank you very much for picking my name for the web site header. I am not a writer and I don’t know any writers so if one of your authors would like it please give it to them.” So if you are a romance or erotica website and would like a new header you can send me an email to abby@bladepublishing.org. First one who requests it gets it.

The signature tag that can be used in forums, myspace, blogs, ect. now has the name Terri on it, congratulations Terri.

Ten names were also drawn for a $5.00 blade gift certificate. The gift certificates have been emailed to the winners with an expiry date of 1 year. The winners are Meagan, Jennifer, Jacob, Silent Bill (posted on request of the winner), Jackie, Shirley, Sarah, Chelsea, Christine, and Dianne. Congratulations to all the winners.

Thank you to all who purchased books in the month of June and entered our contests.

The Blade staff and authors send out a congratulations to all our winners.
