I have more than 400 followers and I feel like celebrating! I have learned and been gifted with so much from my blogging friends. I want you to get something as well. This is why I have designed the Wonderland Giveaway blogfest.
So, get ready to give and receive. Anyone can participate as long as they keep it reading, writing or publishing related. So what can you give away?
1. A copy of your book, short stories or poetry.
2. Gently used books you no longer want.
3. Free cover design (I don’t want to leave out my artist friends!)
4. Gift card to Amazon, Barnes/Noble etc.
5. Writing supplies such as journals, paper, pens, etc.
6. Critique – writers are always looking for another free pair of eyes.
7. Or award interview, book review or guest post space on your blog.
It’s all up to you. Please feel free to come up with other offers in this vein. You may come up with your own rules for your chosen giveaway.
To participate, simply follow the instructions below.
1. If you aren't already a follower, click the button. I can't wait to meet you!
2. Sign up using Mr. Linky, then feel free to leave a comment..

Interesting idea. Must consider how a Bear would get into the happening.
Hmmmm. Think, think, think.
This sounds delightufl. But Im not sure I have anything to give away. I really like this idea!
Blessings
Hi Sylvia - congratulations on 400 followers .. and good luck with the Wonderland Giveaway blogfest ..
Have fun everyone .. cheers Hilary
Hi, Sylvia.
Interesting idea. I'll be away that day but could write the post early and have it publish then. Hmmmm...I need to think of something to give away.
Good luck with the 600 followers!
I've entered. I'll spread the word. :)
I've signed up. I could offer a guest post (anything writing related since it is a writing blog)....or an author interview for one of my Writing Wednesday posts.
Which would work? I could also offer both if that is okay...do let me know. Will also tweet and blog this awesome blogfest!
Damyanti - Either offer would be wonderful, but offering both would be fabulous. The more you offer, the more responses you are likely to receive. I'm so glad you joined. I look forward to getting to know you!
Congrats on your many followers!
I've never done a blogfest like this one before. How is it organized? I don't quite understand the rules :)
Christine - you simply sign up with Mr. Linky here and on Aug. 16, offer a giveaway on your blog. The rules are yours to design along with whatever you wish to give away.
Instead of just giving one thing away myself (I'll probably offer several prizes that day) I thought one organized day of giveaways would be fun. My own blog will be the hub or directory for giveaways at everyone else's blog. I wanted to share friends and followers with all interested and I thought this might be fun. Please let me know if you have any other questions!
I've entered to try this out. I think I can offer both a critique and also a featured spot on my blog. I hope I do this correctly!
I don't really understand, but I'm signed up. Please remind me, Sylvia.
Thank you SO much, Sylvia, for sending me an email about this. My "blog tour" ended and then life and the heat got me and my daughter, and I haven't done much blogging this week, and I've missed some things I shouldn't have!
I will happily give away a copy of my memoir, and also a guest post on my blog.

I've signed up, can offer a PDF copy of my recently released romance 'His Leading Lady' (four 5* reviews so far!), and guest post or interview on my personal blog and one on our group blog 'Heroines with Hearts'.
Congrats on 400! I need to mark this down on my calendar lest I forget. Very great idea!
Wonderful idea for a blogfest! I shall add it to my blogfest page.
Ellie Garratt
I added this to my blogfest page!
Right, Sylvia, I'll offer both :).
This should be a fun blogfest!
Finally got my name added, Sylvia! :-)
I've signed up and I'll be giving away a book cover design, a review/critique and an interview on my blog. I'm not sure how I will choose the winners though or whether to have one winner who gets to choose a prize or three winners. Hmmm...
Jody and Tizzy - welcome to the blogfest. I look forward to seeing what you offer. I'm so excited about this idea. We all love free stuff and I'm continually amazed at how authors support each other. Happy writing everyone!
This sounds like so much fun. I have to ponder this for a little bit, but I know I have some fantastic writing stuff to offer for a give-away ^_^
My book isn't out until September, so I'll be giving away either cover art or a map for your story (I make maps for a living, so I can totally do up your fantasy location :D)
