Giveaway Week: Blogger’s Prize Pack

By

Welcome to Giveaway Week at Homegrown Mom! If you’re new here, you might want to subscribe to my RSS feed or by email!

Have you entered the Gussy and The Rusted Chain giveaways? They’re ending soon!

Today’s giveaway is for bloggers! If you have a blog, you are going to L-O-V-E this! You have a chance to win all of this:

1. A Complete Design from Flibby Pie!

Flibby Pie designed the website for the Relevant 2010 conference.

Isn’t it pretty? She does Blogger and WordPress, and generously offered to give one of you a complete design! Head over to her website to see some more of her work. Here’s what one client had to say about her:

“Katie of Flibby Pie was awesome to work with, was able to make exactly what I had work in WordPress and happily worked out all the other little changes that I requested. And when I accidently somehow made it all disappear, she was a genius and fixed it again. I am doing a little {happy dance} this morning. If you are looking for a whole new look, a transition or just a little something like a new header or a button, Katie is your girl!!”

You can fine her on Twitter, too. Thanks, Katie!


2. 31 Days to Build a Better Blog by Problogger

ebook-copy1

If you don’t know who Darren Rowse is, then you’re probably just reading this post because you know me in real life and think it’s so cute that kooky little Ang has that ‘blog thing.’ The rest of you will understand why I have the biggest crush on his blog, and it has nothing to do with his Australian accent.

A while back, ProBlogger asked his readers what they liked about the 31 DBBB work book and I of course commented. When you go to check out the book, scroll on down and see whose awkward little picture and embarrassing comment is there. Yep. It’s me.

I’m not ashamed to tell you I was giddy when I saw that. Anyway, people email me all the time to ask me about the book and I tell them just why I loved it. They inevitably ask me if I am an affiliate, and no I am not. I just seriously enjoyed the 31 tasks and all the info I learned as a new blogger reading this book.

So, I am giving away a copy of the workbook to the winner. I guess I could have started with that.


3. $25 Amazon gift card, donated by CKY Books.




CKY Books is a fantastic site that pays to sell used books Check out their website. You enter the ISBN of the book you wish to sell and they make you an instant offer. Easier than Ebay! You can also find CKY books on Twitter. That’s where I met them.

I went to their site and entered in a few ISBN’s I had lying around, just to try it out. In less than thirty seconds, there was an offer on almost all of them. My eleven year old Grisham novel wasn’t being sought after, go figure. When I get ready to go curriculum shopping soon, I will definitely be stopping by CKY books first to boost my budget!

I’m so excited CKY books is donating an Amazon gift card. What would you get with your Amazon card? A blogging book? Pens? A laptop pad? Slippers? Or is that just me? Thanks, CKY Books!


4. A pound of Jarbee Coffee from Daily Shot of Coffee

Funny story, I found Mike Crimmins’ site through the original 31 days to Build a Better Blog challenge. He had me at coffee. What blogger doesn’t inhale coffee? Jarbee has the yummiest sounding flavors! I never knew I wanted peanut butter chocolate coffee but now I must have it!

Over at Daily Shot of Coffee, if you sign up for his newsletter, you’ll get a free ebook full of Starbucks recipes. I got it a while back and we make caramel apple cider every fall! Mike was happy to give a pound of coffee to winner, who may or may not be sleep-deprived! Thanks, Mike!


5. For the Write Reason, donated by Becky Doughty


write reason

Becky Doughty is my real life friend and I’m going to start bragging about that now because she’s going to be a famous writer. Very soon. You’ll want to follow her blog, so you can brag, too.

Becky has a book coming out that I’ve had the pleasure of hearing snippets of in our Bible studies, and let me tell you… her writing will transport you. She’s been traveling the Christian Publishing path and thought my bloggy friends might like this book as much as she does.

Because Becky is a fabulous friend–the kind who wouldn’t tell anyone she caught me and Eric fighting at a marriage conference–she is giving a copy of For the Write Reason: 31 Writers, Agents and Editors Share Their Experiences with Christian Publishing to the winner. You can find her on Twitter, too! Thanks, Becky!

      Oh, how funny! I followed you over here from Darren’s blog and you are giving away the very book I was interested in. 🙂

      p.s. I love that sweet little honey pot in your banner.

      Wow what an awesome pack. I have been blogging on and off for a while but just decided to make the effort to be consistent and DO something with my blog-this prize would sure help :). sobyn at hotmail dot com

      What a wonderful prize! I’ve just started a blog called “Not Quite Twins!” and am working so hard to get it in order. To make it fun, I’m starting with a weekly feature called “Craftsmom” where I feature one artist/company making a great product which a lucky reader will then get to win. I love the idea of moms helping moms out that way! I would LOVE this prize because my blog doesn’t look quite polished up yet 🙁 I find the formatting and technical things to be a little difficult 🙂

      Please check out my blog at http://www.notquitetwins.blogspot.com to find out more about Craftsmom, which debuts THIS Wednesday 4/7/10 with a triple giveaway. Thank you!
