Happy Bloversary to Me! And Winners!
Today marks three years of blogging! On May 29, 2009, I decided to create this blog. I already had one on Livejournal, but my friend Aubrie told me about Blogger. Quickly, Blogger became my blogging home. Aubrie was also my first follower. Three years later, I have over 500 followers and have almost 700 posts and 35,000 page views. I'm amazed and humbled by all of this.
In honor of my blogversary and 500 followers, I am offering a $10 Gift Card to Amazon. All you have to do is comment below and sign up for my author newsletter here. Anyone who signs up for my newsletter receives a free fantasy short story. If you already have signed up, then just comment below to enter the giveaway. I'll announce the winner on Thursday, May 31.
Okay, I know why you are all really here. You want to hear the winners for the 2nd Annual Flash Fiction Blogfest. We had 63 entries, and I narrowed it down to a top six finalists. Voting began on Friday and ended yesterday. We had 180 votes! I said I would pick a random winner as well of a $10 Amazon GC. That winner is:
In third place, we had a tie of 22 votes a piece for Geek Banter (1) and Far Away Eyes (2). In the event of a tie, I said I would use Random.org to choose between them. Our third place winner, who will receive a $15 GC from Amazon, is:
With 48 votes, our second place winner, who will receive a $20 GC from Amazon, is:
With 60 votes, our first place winner of the 2nd Annual Flash Fiction Blogfest, who will receive a $25 GC from Amazon, is:
Congratulations to all the winners! Thank you so much to everyone who spread word about this blogfest, participated, and voted. There will definitely be a third flash fiction blogfest, so stay tuned for details of it in May 2013.
And don't forget you still have a chance to win a $10 GC from Amazon. Comment below and sign up for my author newsletter (I promise not to spam you!).

Wednesday's Writing Update: Rewrites and Winners
Happy Wednesday!
Last Wednesday was the one year anniversary of the release of my horror novelette Once Upon a December Nightmare. For those who commented, if you wish to have a copy, it's yours. These people are Summer Ross, Nicole Zoltack, C D Meetens, and Julie Flanders. Just send me an email at cherie.reich(at)gmail(dot)com to claim your prize.
Tomorrow is September 1st. I can't believe it. August stats and September goals will be up next Wednesday. Also, I will begin my September blogger schedule tomorrow:
Mondays – Promo Mondays (Promo, Interviews, Guest Posts)
Tuesdays – Teaser Tuesdays (Two lines from a current book I'm reading, hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading)
Wednesdays – Wednesday's Writing Update
Thursdays – 1st and 3rd Ask the Editor
2nd and 4th – Purrsonal Thursdays
Fridays - #fridayflash
Now, on to rewrites. I'm working hard (NaNo-style) to finish up the last half of Virtuoso. Right now, I'm focusing just on the story and getting it all into 1st person. My goal is to finish it by Labor Day. Then, I can make sweeping passes for emotions, descriptions, additional scenes needed, etc.
So what are you working on lately?
