Oh My Stars!

I wish I could have a marching band coming in right about now.

Oh I can think of some great 80's tunes for them to play.

I could even do a little MC Hammer Dancing for you- you would be impressed. Especially if I threw my hair up in a side pony tail and sported my parachute pants--with matching jelly shoes and jelly bracelets of course! Like Totally~

Okay you gals are some mighty fine writers! I have been tickled, encouraged, challenged, and very blessed by visiting so many of your blogs this weekend. I had no idea so many of my bloggy friends would enter this little contest--- so picking just one proved impossible. After many discussions and e-mails flying back and forth between my team members, we finally decided to pick three winners and four honorable mentions.

And the Winners are:

Jesus at McDonalds by Carol Hatcher

The Determined Life by Amy Brooke

A Cup of Encouragement by Miss Sandy

The 3 winners will appear in our P31 Magazine. Glynnis will be contacting you to get your article scheduled. Please leave a comment over at Glynnis' blog with your e-mail address.

And the Honorable Mentions Are:

The Masterpiece by Sumi

No More Tears for Fears - Marriage as a Three-cord Strand by Linda

Graceful by DeeDee

Laying Down by Jess

The honorable mentions will be published in some facet of Proverbs 31 Ministries. Again, please leave a comment on Glynnis' blog with your personal e-mail address so she can connect with you.

And you may want to check out Glynnis Whitwer's blog today. After reading some many of your wonderful blog entries, she has some helpful hints and tips for turning your blog post into articles that are ready to be published. I think you'll find her information very helpful~

And again--- a Big thank you to Lisa B for all her help this weekend getting things linked and organized. So, she is the winner of the "For the Write Reason" book by Marybeth Whalen.

Now for the NEXT BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

Here was my clue to you: "The Biggest Rock went boom when it hit me as I spoke loudly to my girls."

The biggest- Melanie from Big Mama

Rock- Shannon from Rocks in my Dryer

went boom- and Sophie from Boo Mama

hit me- surprised me that they are coming to and teaching at

as I spoke loudly- the Proverbs 31 She Speaks conference

to my girls- to help teach us all about blogging!!!

Did you catch that? Wow!!! Not only will we have great sessions this year at She Speaks on speaking, writing, and leadership BUT we will also have a couple of classes on blogging too! These three ladies are 3 of the top Christian bloggers. Just imagine how fun it will be to hang out with these 3 top bloggers and learn from them. Not to mention how fun it will be to meet each other face to face.

So, will you pray about coming to our conference? Many of you have been to She Speaks in years past. Why don't you post a little about your experience.

If you've never heard about She Speaks, click here to read more about it. It will be held just outside of Charlotte, North Carolina the weekend of June 20th- the 22nd 2008.

It is a great time for personal revival and training. Plus some of the top Christian Publishers will be there to meet with potential writers. Each year, we rejoice with women who get book contracts as a result of their appointments with publishers at She Speaks!

Registrations will open up this Friday. And you will need to register early as we sell out every year. Last year we had 405 women from 37 different states that attended. So, think about it--- pray about it---- talk to your family and friends---- and get ready to register starting this Friday.

Oh I do hope to see many of you this summer!

Happy Monday~
