November Giveaway

The holidays are coming, isn't that a great reason for a contest? I thought so, too! To get in the spirit of the season, I'm giving away the "The Art of Bellydance" CD. It features some amazing musicians, including master drummer Issam Houshan, Oojami, Beats Antique, Galactic Caravan, and many more.

To enter the contest, click over to http://www.deannacameron.com/. I'll select a winner at random at noon (PT) on Tuesday, November 30.

Good luck!

And the June Contest winner is...

Thank you to the 200-plus people who entered the contest for the new, jingly yellow hip scarf. As always, the winner was selected by my highly official and incorruptable assistant. It was tricky this time -- Sesame Street was on and she just can't get enough of Elmo.

And the winner is:

Dana Packer

(Yay!!!)

Congratulations, Dana! I'll be sending you an email message in the next couple of minutes to get your mailing address.

To everyone else, thank you for playing! I'll be posting a new contest soon, so please check back to http://www.deannacameron.com/ to see what's up for grabs.

Happy Monday!

And the February contest winner is...

Thank you to everyone who entered the contest for the brand new, jingly red hip scarf. The winner was selected, once again, by my unbiased and incorruptable contest official. I admit, she was a little distracted this time. I was unfortunately cutting into her nap time ...

And the winner is:

Marci

(woot-woot!)

Congratulations, Marci! I'll be sending you an email message in the next couple of minutes to get your mailing address.

To everyone else, thank you for playing! I'll be posting a new contest soon, so please check back to http://www.deannacameron.com/ often to see what's up for grabs.

Today's winner is...

It's been a great publication day! I discovered more good reviews (Bookreview.com and BarnesandNoble.com, to name a couple) and that book sales are already strong. Yay :-)


For all of you who bought the book: THANK YOU! I haven't had much time to soak it all in yet -- most of the day has been spent with the little one running to and from the post office to get the bookmarks and other materials out to all the people who have requested them from here and the belly dance forum on Bhuz.com, along with some bookstores around the country.


But here's the fun part of the day: giving away a belly dance hip scarf to today's lucky winner.


So, here we go:

The second week winner is...

We had a lot of new entries this week for the Countdown to Publication contest for THE BELLY DANCER, so the competition was a little tougher. I'm not surprised, though. Who wouldn't want a free copy of the Bellydance Superstars' "The Art of Bellydance"? So, once again, here is my ultra-scientific random drawing process:
