Hello! It’s me, Jaunty P. Quills, Porcupine Extraordinaire. I had a lovely Thanksgiving, thank you for asking. And it’s only 26 days until Christmas! Have you bought me a gift yet? Shirley Karr’s new book looks yummy (hint, hint!)

One of you is about to get an early Christmas present. Christy (hawkes@cit…) is the winner of the Jaunty Quills one-year anniversary contest. You’ve won a tote bag full of signed JQ books and a $75 gift card to Amazon.com.

Email Shana Galen at shana@shanagalen.com with your address and one the the JQs will send you the prize. I’d send it, but they don’t allow porcupines into the post office.

Oh, and Anne says to scroll down and read her blog on catch phrases…
