So, Haunted Halloween 2011 is well and truly over. Jessica and I both agree that we surpassed last years event by leaps and bounds. It's a fun event that we both work hard on for a few months before and about a month after, but what can we say? We love it! We're already starting to talk about next year, and have a few things up our sleeves.

We can't say THANK YOU enough to each of you who entered and to those behind the scenes who made all this possible for our second year. Since all the giveaways have ended, I figured it's time to post the last group of winners. They have been emailed and I'm not sure all have responded YET, so if you see your name here and think you've won something.... but haven't received an email from me yet, please check your spam folder OR email to claim your prize! Anyone who doesn't respond within 48 hours from this post going live, another winner will be picked - using Random.org - to take their place.

NOTE: Be sure to read the whole post! Some of you were lucky and have won MORE than ONE Giveaway! Also, some of the winners of giveaways that were being hosted on BOTH blogs will only be contacted by one of us. So, please keep an eye out for an email from Jessica or myself. Again, be sure to check your spam folders as well and if you have not received an email from either of us, please email to claim your prize asap!

If you were one of the winners posted and you haven't received an email from me, be sure to check your spam folders or send one to me to claim your prize.

If you have any questions, please feel free to check my policy page or email.

Thank you again to Amber for the donation of her most recent book - 7 Kinds of Ordinary Catastrophes - that made the giveaway possible.

First and most importantly - Yes, we do have a winner…Congrats to Amanda W. who should be receiving her Kindle in the mail any day now.

Second, there are definitely some lessons we learned from running this contest. We thought we would share just in case anyone else ever considers hosting a similar contest:

1. There are a lot of people interested in winning a Kindle. Over 1,000 people totaling up to over 5,000 entries (based on the entry guidelines).

2. If you are going to run a contest with high interest, consider how difficult it will be for the person(s) who will be selecting the winner.

3. If you haven’t considered how long it will be to go through all the entries, plan on lots and lots of time.

4. If you are sharing this between bloggers, develop a plan for how to select and contact the winner and who is responsible for what.

5. Have a back up plan for when “life happens” so that someone can jump in and help another person.

6. Also, clearly have a agreed upon plan for how long you will wait for a "winner" to respond, just in case your first one or two people don't respond.

Finally, we just would like to express our deepest apologies for how long it took to select and announce a winner. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding.

And once again…congratulations Amanda and happy reading.
