I have to share the good news!

There are many talented women on the internet who love to give things away!

Yes. It’s true. Lucky us!

I feel compelled to list a few here tonight.  I do hope you’ll visit their blogs and sites and become familiar with their work.

• First on the hit parade is Susannah Conway’s offering Unravelling The Year Ahead 2013.  This is available as a gifted download here. I printed mine off and took it to a coffee shop this afternoon. I didn’t rush. I took all the time necessary not only to bid a loving farewell to 2012, but to set clear and concise goals for 2013.  It astounds me that this substantial offering is completely free.  Please pass it on.

• Then we have a book giveaway over on Susan Tuttle’s blog. She is offering a lucky reader a free copy of Personal Geographies: Explorations in Mixed Media Mapmaking! by Jill K. Berry. The book is gorgeous and the perfect tool to make artful and inspired maps of your personal journies. What a great way to chart the voyage of your life or the corners of your world.  Just hop over here, look around and leave a comment.

• I adore Laura Luquin and she has a gift for anyone who longs to deepen their connection with Nature.  Signs and Symbols in Nature: A Beginner’s Guide for Enhancing Awareness of Spirit Guides and Messengers…is yours to download for free if you click here.

• Every now and then you find a blogger who feels like a kindred spirit from the start.  I was struck by Lis over at Dandelion Seeds and Dreams the moment I found her blog.  She recently collaborated with a group of five wise souls to put together a workshop called The Bones of Wisdom: Identifying and Collecting Deep Personal Meaning.  She is generously offering one gifted spot in the workshop all for the price of a comment.  I hope this workshop lands in the hands of a person who really needs the connection!

• OK. Now we have the advent event going on over at A Butterfly in my hair.   I barely know where to start. Let’s just say that it is 20 days of 2 giveaways a day of indie handmade beauty! You need do nothing but leave a comment on any of the posts appearing daily that show an item you have become enchanted by. The winners are drawn a few days later and this keeps happening for 20 whole fricking days!!!!  Do not be shy…enter every single one!

• And, last but not least. I am doing a little giveaway over here! My marvelous health coach Meg has written an ebook called Salad Alchemy. It is so wonderful that I recently purchased a package of them to gift to friends this holiday season. Well, I have one left and I want to share it with you! Please leave a comment here and I will do a drawing on December 15th. You can comment right up to 11:59 on the 14th! I will announce the winner shortly after.  Trust me, this book will change how you think about salad. My friend Kelly sent me this comment after making one of Meg’s magical salads.

“Ok, I tried the Power salad today, and it was pretty amazing.

Great colors, textures and flavor. It really looked and tasted like powerful sacred food.”
