I read once that all writers are a bit narcissistic. We love feedback. We love compliments.
And so, I love seeing my group of followers grow. I get giddy when my number goes from 28 to 30 over night!
Then I get all sad when I notice that a friend has 169 followers. How did she do it? Is there a gimmick I'm missing?
So, I'm going to do something a bit gutsy. I'm offering a prize to all my followers...once I hit 50! I'm so close, only need 20 more.
Everyone will be entered into a drawing for a gift bag of my yummy, orchard hazelnuts. (Oh, you know you want some!) FYI: I was cracking nuts last night as I watched The Office and I now have blisters. So, this prize comes at a huge cost to me. But that is what I'm willing to sacrifice to be 50 Strong! Spread the word. Tell your friends.
(The irony will be if no one response, and I stay right at 30 right into the New Year! Ha!)

This is too funny! Isn't it strange? I'm the same way. I feel so great that I have gone from 4 followers to 30-something in a little over a week and then I see someone else with 200 and I'm immediately deflated. You go with the hazelnuts!! I'll follow you..stop by my blog and follow me at http://sidac.blogspot.com
