18-12-2011 - Thank You For Coming To Me Baby Brother Excited!My mood while writing this blog:
Excited!



Hi Ladies, wow! It's been a REALLY LONG TIME! Baby boy is 14 months already and "baby" girl is 3 1/2! I joined back when I was only 11 weeks pregnant with baby girl. A lot has changed of course!

I wanted to share my cool news! I have become a freelance writer and I write for a few different mom's blogs. Mostly funny parenting stories and top 10 lists about life as a mom. However, I am most excited about my children's book! I wrote a children's book that was inspired by my 2 little loves and it was accepted into a national contest to win a publishing contract. Also, if I win the elementary school where my mom taught for 22 years will receive free ebooks for a year from the entire MeeGenius library! Her program changed over the years, but she was originally hired to teach creative writing!

Anyway, one day Summer and Ely were playing on the floor and Ely made Summer laugh. She knelt down and took his sweet little baby face in her hands and said, "thank you for coming to me, baby brother" and (after I wiped the tears from my eyes!) I thought, I HAVE to write that down! So I did and now it's in a contest!

Today is the final day of voting (the 18th) to get into the finals. There are 2 ways to get into the finals. 1.) is to get the most votes and 2.) is to be a judge's pick. Right now I'm ranked 15 (out of 400 entrants) so I'm hoping to be a judge's pick! If I become a finalist they will then illustrate my book, turn it into an ebook that will be avail on ipad, iphone, android, the web, etc., and then it will go up for another round of voting.

If you have 2 seconds, (it literally takes 2 seconds to vote) I'd love your support for my little story! You just click on the link and then click on the pink star on the story page and that is it! It's super easy to vote. You don't have to sign up for anything or give your email or anything.)

Here is the link: http://meegenius.com/challenge/thank-you-for-coming-to-me-baby-brother-by-colleen-duncan-canavan

And please let me know you stopped by on the voting page by leaving a comment! Thank you!
