300 GiveAway
I can't believe it, I passed the 200 follower mark in record time. One minute I had 167 followers and the next time I looked I had 210. This debunked my plan for a 200 follower giveaway. (says she with an afraid to be overly pleased grin on her face). Of course my follower number increase is due to the very wonderful Crusade I signed up for. I must give credit where credit is due. So a major THANK YOU to my fellow Crusaders. I hope you all enjoy your visits to Inkpots n' Quills as much as I have enjoyed meeting you.
The sword welding Rachael Harrie at Rach Writes the Crusader Organizer is holding a follower celebration at the moment too. Pop over and have a gander.
Talli Roland has graciously agreed to send me three signed copies of "The Hating Game" which will be released on March 9. One copy will go to follower 300. Oh and Tallie is holding a "Hating Game" launch week with a Mega Bookosity give away. Great books in the offing there!Names will be drawn from follower commenters on posts until March 9, for the other two copies and two Amazon Gift Cards.
I can't say Thank you enough for following Inkpots n' Quills. Thank you for taking the time to read and comment on my posts. Your support and encouragement is greatly appreciated.
You are STARS! Yes you are!

Congrats! and I'd say good luck on getting to 300... but it doesnt really look like you'll need it. I'll say it anyway.
Good LUCK!
Thank you for the stylish blogger award Ann! I've been very busy lately, but hope to do my post on it in next day or so. It's great the crusade is connecting you to so many people. I'm going to try the A-Z bloggers challenge in April. I really want to get my hands on a copy of Talli's book! I'm new to this blogging malarky, but I'm loving making connections with people with similar interests.
Congratulations on your followers! The Crusade really has built them up, hasn't it?
Hi Amy, Thanks for stopping by. I hope you are right....
Hi Aine, I have been following the news at home and it seems Mr. Comb Over and his friends got their come uppence! See you on the A-Z Challenge.
Hi Margo, I am fairly sure this would be a 200 giveaway if not for the Crusade!
Whooo Hooo! Great job, Ann. I'm having an explosion of followers, too. Though I'm still at 171. Have to think about a give-away... ; )
Congrats on building your blog so quickly, so well! :)
Congrats on the many followers, Ann! And what a generous give away that you're doing. I can't wait for Talli's book to come out. Cheers!
Yup. This crusade rocks. I was going to do the same thing when I hit 100, but 100 is long gone. Going fishing now for good 200 give away ideas.
Congrats on all the followers!
Well done, Ann and what a great competition!!
I love that I've been with you for so long, back before you hit 100! And me too, that was back before I had hit 50.
Yay! Congrats on all your followers - very well deserved. Thanks so much for using my book as a giveaway, Ann! :)

Congrats on passing the 200 mark! And thanks for stopping by last week and commenting on L'Aussie's blog where she highlighted my writer's journey. Yours was the second comment where you said my journey gave you hope--something we all need, all the time really. I HOPE for you that your following continues to grow!

HI Ann! We've all had quite an explosion with the crusades haven't we? I passed 100 without having time to even blink really. Now I'm closing on 200. I guess I should think about a giveaway or something... Cheers to you!!!

I'm a new follower(coincidentally another Anne from Wisconsin)Congrats!
Nothing like the crusade to shoot the numbers up. I still haven't got around to everyone but I think I just about follow everyone in the 'sphere. Congrats on the nearly 300 mark. How on earth did you get Talli to offer up some books for prizes? Wow. Well done.

Yay! Congratulations on reaaching 300! :)
Congrats on all the new followers! That 300th is right around the corner.
My follower count has soared with the crusade as well, and I've really enjoyed getting to know some fellow crusaders, especially those in my groups, better and better. It's been a great experience!
That's a cool prize! I've heard so much about Talli's book! Last I checked you're just 5 away from 300! Will help push you along by mentioning your giveaway on my blog. :)
If this was facebook, I would have liked you all. Now there's a thought!
Hello. I'm kinda late to the game but saying hi nonetheless.
I was #299! Damn! Anyways good luck getting to 300! Talk to u on the crusade!

Wisconsin and Ireland - that's an interesting combo; I'm trying to imagine leprechaun cheeseheads scamping around the place.
Make that "scampering," although I wouldn't put it passed a talented leprachaun to scamp, too.
