I need your help

'Emily's birthday surprise' has been published by knowonder. That's the good news and I'm thrilled. The bad news is I have to get loads of comments in one week in order to win the cash prize.

Could you spare a few minutes to read and leave a comment. I'd be really grateful. Thanks in advance.

When I click the link the page isn't there...

jilly61 · Oct 15, 2011

I'm sorry about that. It is now.

Kelkelen · Oct 15, 2011

Sure, I gave it a look & a comment. Good luck! (P.S. -- the website won't use my email for spam, will it?)

jilly61 · Oct 15, 2011

Thanks for the comments, Kelkelen. I haven't experienced any problems with the website in the past. It shouldn't be a problem.

Ken · Oct 15, 2011

... cool accomplishment. Congrats

I voted, I only regret that I don't have a website to link it to. Nice story, by the way, I've seen picture books about getting a pet, but don't recall many on how to make choices, unless it's just 'which kitten', or 'which puppy'.

Thanks for commenting, Frimble. I still need around a dozen votes but it's just nice to know that people are reading it.

jilly61 · Oct 17, 2011

Five more days to go...

And a big thank you to those who've already responded.

jilly61 · Oct 18, 2011

Four more days to go...

and I'm struggling. I don't expect to win...maybe next time.

alleycat · Oct 18, 2011

Done.

Snitchcat · Oct 18, 2011

Voted. Sorry I don't have a website or stories to link to, though.

Congratulations and good luck! (^_^)

SheilaJG · Oct 18, 2011

Good luck, Jilly!

jilly61 · Oct 19, 2011

Thanks. I really appreciate all your comments. So an update...

Three more days to go...

and I only need two comments. This is looking doable. Fingers crossed.

Mark me down for one comment.

I wasn't kidding, by the way, that was a really good children's story. You need to find an illustrator and make a picture book.

Don't we have a spot on the forum for just those types of pairings? You should poke around. I'm sure someone would love to work with you.

I'm open to offers.

Thanks for your comments, Tedium.

It's set to be close, there are only a couple of votes between me and the second placed author. The suspense is killing me!

Archerbird · Oct 19, 2011

A comment from me too. Good luck.

muse · Oct 19, 2011

Great story, jilly.

Left a comment, hoping that's how you vote because I didn't see another option.

Good luck, it's definitely a winning story.

You're right, Muse, that is how you vote. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

jilly61 · Oct 20, 2011

Two more days to go...
and five votes ahead. Hopefully it'll stay that way.

stormie · Oct 20, 2011

Really liked the story, Jilly! I voted and commented.

jilly61 · Nov 15, 2011

Just received an email confirming that I won the people's choice award. I couldn't have done it without you.

(For anyone that's interested, I'm to be published in next month's issue).

Calla Lily · Nov 15, 2011

Congratulations!

stormie · Nov 15, 2011

Yay jilly! Congratulations!
