Alliteration Contest Winners
Time to announce the winners for the A to Z Blog Challenge - Alliteration Contest I had going on for the month of April. There were over 140 Alliterations - wow!
Some were long, some were short and sweet! Others were just plain wacky (including some of mine) :) - but it was a pleasure to read them all and every day I looked forward to it. Three of you nearly posted an alliteration every day -Samposey, Nicole, and Colin!
So without further delay, here are the winners ! Each receive a $25 Amazon gift card (via email).
Samposey for the letter C - which cracked a lot of us up when we read it!
Cats can't consume candy-coated canaries.
Colin for the letter S - This one wins the longest alliteration and awesome award for making sense!
Severus Snape's silvery smokey subconscious strands smoothly slithered, silently surrendering some salient suggestions surrounding subplots strenuously suppressed, surprising steadfast series supporters.
And finally, (I know I said only 2 - but I have to give props to Nicole who had so many cute, short and sweet alliterations!
Here's a sampling of some of Nicole's short and sweet entries:
C -
Cheers! Can't compete. :)
G -
Good grief! :)
L -
Lovely!
O -
Oops, out of order.
S -
Superb simplicity. :)
Congrats! Let me know your email and I will get the gift cards to you!

The Writer's Voice Contest Entry #134
The Writer's Voice is a contest hosted by Brenda Drake of Brenda Drake Writes, Monica B. W. of Love YA, Krista Van Dolzer of Mother. Write. (Repeat), and Cupid of Cupid's Literary Connection. To see what it's all about, please check out their blogs.
Congratulations to all the writers that were picked! This contest is so cool and I'm excited to watch it all play out!
Anyway, since all the awesome picks have been made, I've taken down my entry. :)
The suspense of waiting, and hoping, and wondering, and madly checking email, my blog, and twitter was fun and exciting.
Thanks to Brenda, Monica, Krista, and Cupid for taking on such a huge event.
Good Luck to all,
Kimberly
