Winners, winners everywhere!!

First up, the winner of the book triplets scavenger hunt: Nine Fly!! Congrats, and thank you everyone SOOOOO much for entering!!

Next is the winner of my contest in the virtual van tour post for Mandy Hubbard's novel Prada and Prejudice. And the winner is Cherry!! Please email me at rhonda at rhondastapleton dot com to claim your book. :D Huge thanks to everyone who followed our crazy van tour--we had a BLAST doing it!

LAST. We have the biiiiiiiiig winner of my book launch contest. Cue drum roll here. Now, let me just say that we got some really, really horrible poems. I am impressed by the caliber of wretchedness and purple prose we saw, as were the judges!! You guys made everyone laugh, cry, and even throw up in our mouths a little.

But alas, there can be only one.

The winner, of the most horrendous love poem written in the history of mankind, IS.........Jessica!

Here's her entry:

You are a treat.
And are very sweet.
Your hair looks like wheat.
I like repeatedly passing your street.

I do not cheat,
so you should send me a Tweet,
and we can meet,
and get something to eat.

I am very neat.
You should give me a greet.
My name is Pete,
and I like your feet.

For your love, I know I must compete.
But I am elite.
And my love—as strong as concrete!
I will defeat.

My heart is incomplete.
And only YOU can make it complete.
Please go out with me. . . .

Thank you, thank you, thank you everyone. I have gotten tons of support and love for the launch of Stupid Cupid. I greatly appreciate it!

My plan today is to have a leisurely lunch with friends, and then run around like mad and sign stock in several local stores. haha

Have a great Dec 22! I know I will. :D
