Cat's Corner
Blogging About Books, Writing, Travel, Film & More
This September marks the start of my THIRD year as a blogger and Kid Lit author. It’s my Two-Year Blogoversary!
WOW! These 48 months have been a roller coaster. Exhilarating at times; daunting the next. I’m deeply grateful for people I met along the way who support me: colleagues who share practical tips and creative ideas; readers who tell me how much they enjoy my tales; teachers, librarians who welcome me into their schools; and kind folk who keep me smiling when I need a jolt of joy.
This Two-Year Blogoversary is a milestone as much for YOU as it is about me. Without YOU, there wouldn’t be a Cat Michaels, writer. So it's definitely time to say thanks and celebrate. And a giveaway of Sweet T Tales swag is just the ticket! Read on for details about my Two-Year Blogoversary Giveaway.
Prizes
Ten entrants will win one of the five prizes below. A 12-inch, crocheted, chubby-cheeked Fuzzy rabbit pal of your very own to cherish. A unique, thoughtful gift, especially when paired with Finding Fuzzy, my tale for early readers.
