Day 13, 2012 Writer Mama Every-Day-In-May Book Giveaway Winner!

I went with two winners, tonight. I rounded up ‘cuz it was Mother’s Day. 🙂

And the winners of Writer Mama, How To Raise a Writing Career Alongside Your Kids and with a bonus e-copy of Author Mama, How I Became a Published Author and How You Can Too both by Christina Katz are…

Cara Holman

and

Dee

Both winners were chosen by Random Number Generator.

Cara’s response was:

I was surprised, when towards the end of her life, Mom told me she also had writing aspirations at my age. Mom a writer? And then I began to think. About the bedtime stories she wove for me, how she helped me with my high school essays by suggesting just the right turn of phrase, how she could always mesmerize whoever she happened to be talking to with her stories of everyday events, the job she took after she retired as a teacher, doing editing and freelance writing of math books, the two math books we co-authored together, the little books she wrote for my children when they were young, the stories she wove for them… Mom a writer? Of course!

Dee’s response was:

My earliest memories of my mom have been seeing her read.  Well, read and watch Star Trek (I was born in the late 60s).  I think I decided I wanted to be a writer because it was OBVIOUS that writing was very very important if it commanded so much of my mom’s time.  She even read while we ate dinner! I should say that I was offended, but … it just seemed normal in our house.

Congratulations, Cara (again) and Dee!
