Freebies: Birthday Postcard giveaway!

Published by mortaine at 9:08 am under fun and games Edit This

FireworksAs promised, I’m going to hold another 6-postcard drawing, this one to celebrate my birthday, which is today!

Post a comment on ustravel.today.com or drop your entrecard between now and Friday, August 22. ONE lucky winner will receive a packet of 6 randomly selected postcards from my travels. You can ask to have all six mailed to you in an envelope, unmarked, or I can write random messages on them and mail them to you one at a time– your pick!

By the way, I contacted the winners of last month’s drawing, but didn’t hear back from 2 of the 3 winners. Go Amie and Simply Mayang , would you both please drop me an email at mortaine at gmail.com with your mailing address so I can get these out to you? Thanks!

Fine Print:

Don’t put your mailing address in the comment, but do check your email or this blog after Saturday the 23rd. I’ll announce the winner on Saturday and try to contact you if I have any kind of link or email address to use.

Your contact information will not be shared with anyone for any purpose and will not be used for anything except sending you the post cards. Non-US participants welcome, but I can only send post cards where the U.S. postal service permits. All spam comments will be deleted and are ineligible for entry. “Spam” is defined by my own internal filter. Like obscenity– I know it when I see it.

This giveaway/contest is being run by the independent writer of ustravel.today.com and has not been reviewed or endorsed by the webhost, Today.com.

Note: Comments are moderated, so if you post one and it doesn’t go through, don’t panic– it’s just being held for moderation.

Also, I know the captcha is annoying. I already get about 20 spam messages a day, even with it, and I shudder to think what it would be if I disabled it. The plugin my host uses, re-Captcha, uses words that have been scanned for inputting public domain works into online libraries which the OCR software is having trouble recognizing. So, as annoying as it may be, at least you’re helping to contribute to the availability of e-texts.
