Our First Book Giveaway Winner!

We have a winner!

But before I announce the winner's name, I want to thank everyone who posted in response to our first Guest Teaching Author interview. We loved the variety of picture books you all shared, and we enjoyed your wonderful comments!

I also want to again thank Ann Whitford Paul for her terrific interview. And I need to apologize to Ann--I neglected to include a link to her website when I posted the interview. So if you'd like to read more about Ann and her books, please visit her website. (Hope that makes up for my mistake, Ann!)

I won't keep you in suspense any longer. Our randomly-selected winner of an autographed copy of Writing Picture Books is Diana at the Mysterious Title X blog. Congratulations, Diana! But don't forget--you need to reply to our email within 72 hours, as specified in our Giveaway Guidelines. If for some reason Diana doesn't get in touch with us in time, we will choose an alternate winner.

For those of you who didn't win a copy of Writing Picture Books, watch this space for an upcoming review of the book by one of our Teaching Authors, and for a second chance to win one of Ann's books. And stay tuned--we're planning more book giveaways in late August and early September!
