600th Post Anniversary Giveaway!


Listen, my readers, and you shall hear of the midnight ride of Paul Revere fun and fabulous 600th Post Anniversary Giveaway Party for Sue's News, Views 'n Muse (established in August of 2008 and still going strong). This blog experience just keeps getting better and better, which is why I want to celebrate all of you...my valued readers...with the opportunity to win a prize that you will value, a prize suitable to your own worth. To me, I mean. Because I think you're worth quite a lot.

Needless to say, finding an item of this caliber took some searching, but I think I've managed to come up with exactly the right thing. I hope you'll agree.


In the event you don't agree (i.e. the "i blog" necklace doesn't appeal to you aesthetically; you are a blog reader only, or you are a blogger who doesn't care to wear that information), then you may opt instead for the nienie necklace, pictured below.


Hopefully, one of these two beauties will appeal to everyone, because these are the only choices you get! And two runners-up will win a copy each of my most recent book, His Children. Which means there will be three winners in all! How's that for exciting?

What do you have to do to throw your hat in the ring? Two things. Make a comment below, and be (or become) a follower. Pretty easy.

By the way, if you put a link to the giveaway on your blog, I'll add your name an extra time into the big, red bowl from which I draw the winners.

Entries will be accepted until Wednesday (August 11th) at 11:59 PM, and winners will be announced Thursday morning.

Good luck, everyone! And many thanks for the support, encouragement, and comments that make me a happy blogger.

=)

PS. One more thing...If you've won my giveaways before, don't let that stop you from entering. This is a whole new ball game, so take a swing at it!

PPS. Guess what...I just won Freakshow Friday again, over at Leigh vs. the Laundry. This is my lucky day!!

VK said...

Wow 600 posts. I go in spurts with some months only posting 6 or 7 times. You will be hard to catch up to.

Lauren said...

I don't comment often, but I do love reading your blog. You always have something nice or beautiful or funny to say!

CB said...

WAY fun!! Love the necklace. Of course, I am a follower and commentor!
Keep your great blog going Sue - You are a gem!

Caroline said...

Congratulations, Sue! The comic at the beginning cracked me UP! I think that 600 posts is a wonderful thing to celebrate and your blog is loved by so many (including myself). Great giveaways--I think they are both lovely.

:)

Janis said...

Wow! 600! That's a lot of posts! I love to read them! You are an incredible writer. I'm not a blogger myself, just a follower! Love the "All is Well" necklace! Thanks for the opportunity!

jenettew said...

Is it possible to produce 600 posts in only 2 years time? Wow! I have just started a family blog and find it hard to keep up with it. I really like your blog and have been by to visit many times. (Maybe because I know how awesome the blogger is.) Not all blogs are created equal.

I think the "i blog" necklace is very cute! I can imagine how hard it was to find. Happy Anniversary!

Lisalulu said...

600 posts wow. Quite an achievement! and considering I've been so lucky in the past... well I'll just cross my fingers.

Joyful Noise said...

I do not blog, just read blogs. I can honestly say that your blog has helped me to get to the point where I can say "All is Well", even though there are still struggles... If I am so lucky I would love the "All is Well" necklace.

Thank you for blogging and thank you for sharing your life.

karen said...

Consider my cowboy hat that has been thrown in the ring. I love giveaways because I'm a romantic dreamer. Congrats on an astounding number of quality posts!

People Who Know Me Would Say: said...

I very rarely enter giveaways, but I'll toss my hat in the ring for 'I blog'. Yes, I will. :)

Momza said...

So dang cute!
You always have fun giveaways!
I should check to see how many posts I am away from a significant number!
Have a super day!

Joy For Your Journey said...

600 posts is amazing!!And that each is always of value is even more impressive. I have enjoyed following your blog and like to leave comments.

I also really appreciated the comment you recently left on mine. Thank you for that.

Grandma Honey said...

I LOVE that necklace! Seriously.

But I have no idea what this follower thing is all about, or how to sign up. I'd do it for you Sue. I know, I've been blogging for over 2 years but I don't know anything about followers. Congratulations on your 600th post!

Kaci Jo said...

I do love the 'all is well' necklace!!! So cute!!

All is well for me. It may be just the thing I need to start believing that.

fawndear said...

What a fantastic treat! I'm in awe - 600 posts. I have a feeling that I'm going to be visiting here for a while. Follow I will.
Loving both necklaces, especiall the Nie one. And your book would be a treasure.

Cheryl said...

600 posts? If I'm still able to write by that point, I'll be so impressed I'll probably puke.

I love the "i blog" necklace more than anyone else in the whole bloggin' world. I want it, I need it, I must own it.

Jocelyn Christensen said...

Hey Sue! You are pretty awesome, I must say! I would love to win one of those necklaces and your book, my, my! What wonderful prizes!

So are you joining me for my Family Proclamation fun? Do you feel like doing a guest post for me in September on some aspect of the proclamation? Let me know!

Darlene said...

I guess I would have to choose the "All is Well" necklace should my name be drown from the red bowl, since I am not a blogger, I only read blogs. However, if you do draw my name, I think you should draw again, because you already give me (and Dick) far too many things. It will be interesting to see who wins though. The second and third winners will be particulaly lucky because I absolutely love that book, and know anyone would be thrilled to have it.

leigh hewett said...

After all of this time, I had yet to hit the "follow" button. I am your newest follower!

Now, please send me that lovely necklace! :)

Myrna Foster said...

I like both of them. Congrats on 600 posts. I hit 83 yesterday, so it would take me another five years or so to catch up.

Man, I need to keep up! I really wish I had entered this contest. The Nie necklace has me drooling and coveting. 600 posts? That is insane! Every post inspiring and full of goodness and wisdom. I am so glad you blog.
