*update of points as of 11/29/08 2200hrs MST – and HOLY CRAPOLY it’s not getting any easier to keep the points crap straight. Remind me next time when I get a wild hair up you-know-where and have another crazy giveaway that I keep this crap a lot more simple…for you and for moi!

As I mentioned before, if I’ve screwed something up, please, please, please send me an email: words at tinamcallister dot com – and give me the full run-down of what you’ve done.*

Yes, the ebook giveaway is still running. You’ve got until midnight November 30th to rack up the points!

As a re-cap – you have to post a comment on the original thread here and state that you want to enter the giveaway (and a little about what you want an ebook and all that would be kind of cool too). That single comment will get your name in the running and score you a point.

Post to any of your sites the link to the original ebook giveaway post and you get 3 points. Each time. No max. (Run out of sites? Get a friend or colleague with a site to post about the giveaway and attribute the post to you – 3 points each, no max!)

Tweet about the contest (and throw the @TinaMc in there so I can see it) and you can get 1 point. 5 points max.

Post the giveaway link on any forums you frequent and you get 3 points each time. 12 points max.

You can also post comments on other blogs (relevant comment posts, please…no spamming other peoples’ blogs b/c that is just so uncool)! 2 points each, 6 points max.

And yes, Facebook mentions get you 3 points, 6 points max!

Here’s the rundown of how the giveaway stands as of today. And if I’m missing anything, please leave a comment here to point out a site post, a url to the forum you posted in, the time/date you tweeted about the giveaway and your Twitter username…and I’ll update this immediately!!
