Sarah of Salad for Breakfast has drawn the winner of the Notebooks, Etc. giveaway on her blog. In Sarah’s words: “I’m so pleased that this giveaway had such a huge turnout! This one racked over 100 entries in less than 10 hours from being launched…craziness I tell you!” So thank you! The winner, in a draw made by Sarah:

#165 is Bill And Lorie Shewbridge!

Congratulations! I already have your mailing address and will be getting your prize out to you soon.

I am floored to have over 300 comments on that particular post and reading the comments was insightful as a shop owner– I know what people like and would like to see more of in my shop. I am particularly thrilled to know that my non-kawaii drawings (in particular, the squirrel and the hot air balloons) are receiving as much love as my anthropomorphic kawaii illustrations. It encourages me to draw more things for my own personal enjoyment/satisfaction and not be so much of a sell out with the tried and tested commercial stuff. Haha.

With over 300 comments on that post (384 to be exact), I felt it would be a shame to have only one winner. So with Sarah’s permission, I went ahead to pick another number using random.org’s Random Number Generator to win a consolation prize.

Congratulations, Aik! Please respond to my e-mail within 48 hours or I may pick another winner :)

Thank you to everyone who participated in my first giveaway and a huge thank you to Sarah from Salad for Breakfast for hosting it!

And by the way, WEDGIENET.NET turns eight years old today! Happy birthday, domain! This website has actually been inactive longer than it has had real content (I started updating this site again only last year, after years and years of inactivity and “Under construction, please check back soon” front pages) but I am trying my best to keep this blog updated with new work. I have updates and new images coming in the next few days!

Readers, we have a giveaway.

Woot!

I am giving away a set of sushi stationery to 1 lucky person who leaves a comment on this particular post on Salad for Breakfast. Just read the full details and mechanics of the contest on that site and join away… Sarah of SFB will be using a random number generator to pick a winner but I might just pick out another consolation prize winner myself. Wink, wink!

This contest runs until July 9th and is open to EVERYONE. Goodluck!

Also check out the Google Friend Connect widget thingee I installed on the right sidebar. What it does is it lets you “follow” my blog and receive new posts right on your Blogger dashboard/Google Reader when I update! That means you don’t have to come ’round this site to check for new posts (and find none). Instead, you’re updated a few minutes after I hit “publish” on this blog.

Please join as it’s really sad seeing only two followers (and I’m one of them, too). I just discovered there’s a small number of people already following my blog via Google Reader, though. I’m surprised. I thought I only had two visitors or something. Won’t you come out from lurking and introduce yourself? :)
