Thursday Challenge and a Giveaway

*UPDATE* WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!

Ann Voskamp of Holy Experience is now the rightful owner (via random integer) of this beautiful Penelope Parker Bag full of Mother Letters.

Thanks so much to all of you who have helped us spread the word. You continue to bless us.

Alert: this post could result in the giving away of massive amounts of paper, neatly wrapped in a very girly (can I say that?) bag. 

In an effort to spread the word, we are hosting a drawing of sorts.  First, sign up to write a letter or make a pledge of $0.10 per new letter generated.  Then, help get the word out about the project.  Post about it or add the MLP button (it has a new code) on your blog. Twitter about the project.  Let your Face Book friends know about it.  Stumble it. 

For each action about which you tell us, your name will be added to one of those random integer things, and on Saturday night, after our date, we’ll post the recipient’s name. 

What exactly would I be receiving? We’re glad you asked. 

The winner will receive a bound hard copy of the first edition of The Mother Letter Project tucked beautifully inside a Penelope Parker original - the Pleated Purse in Navy Floral. Gentlemen, you can always give it to your Mama.

Will you help get the word out?  Leave a comment or five to let us know how you participated.  

DO NOT FORGET TO PUT YOUR NAME UNDER THE CORRECT TAB IF YOU ARE PLEDGING OR WRITING. This project would be nothing without your help. Thank you.
