    Ooo! Congrats to you on 100!! (171 actually, now!) How fun. And what a great giveaway--the critiques as well as the book (that's been on my TBR list for a long time!)

    Happy Valentine's Day, Michelle!

    Thanks everyone!

    Deborah, you could still put your name in for a chapter critique if you'd like!

    I am a new follower, and i've started a book, but I am brand new, so no chapter critique for me yet. But, I would love the book because that is the best way to learn about writing! I look forward to reading your blog!

    Oooh, that would be fun. Though I don't know if my first chapter is even my first chapter anymore. Hmm...

    Congrats Michelle.

    I've been following you since around your 5o follower mark... So wonderful that you've got a good start toward 200!

    I'll give you a tweet.

    I'm an "old" follower, although I feel all creaky and cranky admitting it. Also a fellow Crusader, fwiw. Very generous giveaway!

    Congratulations on the 100 followers! Can we choose to enter for the book or the crit? I'm not crit ready yet with a whole chapter.

    Old follower though ;)

  21. Michelle MerrillFebruary 14, 2011 at 7:15 PM

    Thanks so much Heather for the award. I'll blog about it next week :)

    CherylAnne-I'll be over tomorrow to see the post. Thanks a ton!

    Sweet! I'm not on Twitter Michael, but that's awesome!

    All you "old" bloggers are so funny! I'm not calling you old and wrinkly or anything. Haha.

    You can certainly tell me if you want to be in for one drawing or another. I am totally open to critiquing anything around 3000 words if you don't have a first chapter...even if it's not revised much, or not at all. The more eyes the merrier right?

    Thanks again everyone for stopping by!

    CONGRATULATIONS! You have well over 100 followers. I would love to be put in the contest. I'll blog it at sharibird.blogspot.com (thanks for visiting me previously--yay for the Crusade) Also, I was a follower before I found out about the contest, so does that count for two? Anyway, yay for contests.
