| Resurrection Blogfest Badge #1 |
RESURRECTION BLOGFEST!
In this first year of bloggery, before I'd connected with other bloggers and attracted regular readers, I posted stuff which never got the attention I felt it deserved. I was sure I couldn't be the only blogger who felt that way. Only, you might feel kinda bad about just trotting out an old post, fearing accusations of laziness (if you're neurotic, or, in fact, lazy). (Like I am.) So I thought I'd just host a blogfest so I could resurrect a piece from my first year of blogging. (Yeah, I know there's Linked Within, but there's no certainty folks'll click on your older stuff to check it out, now is there?)
Fellow bloggers, you're all invited to join in the fun! (PLUS there will be PRIZES!!!)

I reserve the right to break any ties by flipping a coin, or reading chickens entrails strewn about the backyard, or maybe picking petals off a gerbera daisy till it's nekkid. - Yes, I'm totally serious about all the rules. No, I'm not serious about the entrails. Gross.

| Resurrection Blogfest Badge #3 |
- *All days/times are based on EST.
- Subject matter is up to participants but whatever the topic, the post must have originally appeared on your blog in your first year of blogging!
- It's OK to sign up if you're still in your first year of blogging and want to use something from the past few months.
- It's also OK for participants to sign up more than one blog, however, in the spirit of Highlander—THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE prize per participant.
- Participants whose Resurrection posts are not up by 11:59pm EST on Nov. 7 will be removed from the linky-list.
- Topics/blogs with adult themes should have the appropriate preliminary warning before any participants or readers see your blog/post. Any participants' links who take the clicker to adult subject matter without warning will be removed at my discretion. And don't give me any crap about not knowing what I mean by "adult themes," 'cause you totally do.
- 1st Prize = $20 Amazon Gift Card; 2nd prize = $15 Amazon Gift Card; 3rd Prize = $10 Amazon Gift Card, to be sent to the respective winners via e-mail.
OK, y'all; this has to be one of the easiest blogfests going, seeing as I'm not making you come up with any new content for it. Sign up and spread the word, already, sheesh. ;-)
