To commemorate the Golden Anniversary of "TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD" by Nelle Harper Lee heralded as the "Best Novel of the 20th Century", "Southern Princess" blog is having a contest. One of the prizes will be: the 50th anniversary edition of one of the best-loved books in American history: Harper Lee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning classic "TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD". Featuring some of the most memorable characters in literary history—attorney Atticus Finch, his children Scout and Jem, and of course Boo Radley—To Kill a Mockingbird is the indelible story of race, class, and growing up in the Deep South of the 1930s.Check out the "Southern Princess" blog for additional CONTEST details. Contest ends 28 July 2010!
Nelle Harper Lee was born in 1926 in Monroeville, Alabama. She attended the local schools and studied law at the University of Alabama. For some years she spent most of her time in New York City, where, until she began writing, she was employed in the reservations department of an international airline. "Aside from writing," says Miss Lee, "my chief interests in life are collecting memoirs of nineteenth-century clergymen, golf, crime and music."
Until next time...stay safe, stay well, and may the Lord bless you all.

Ha ha ha! So does this mean you didn't tell Courtney that I sent you?! LOL! :-)
Wow...that sure hurt my feelings, Shannon. :o(
OF COURSE I did, silly, and I mentioned to her that she owed you +5 points for referring me, too. You can look for yourself if you don't believe me. It's included in my comment on her blog, right below where I tallied up MY points (just a few spots under YOUR comment).
You can check to make sure that she saw it if you want, but I did do it.

Hope you're having a wonderful 4th of July!
You, too, Missie!
It's been a glorious day.
God bless you.

Cynde,
I swear I was only joking, darling. I saw your comment and you are such a sweetheart! I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I was just laughing about the fun circle we could have with Courtney. We could all really make her head spin if we tried. Thanks for the points. I adore you! Really. :-)
You're such a doll, Shannon!
I was pretty sure you didn't REALLY mean it, but if you had, I would have felt SO bad.
Yeah, we could go round and round with Courtney and get her all confused, huh! She seems like such a sweet girl.
I'm so glad it was YOU that got the extra points. If I don't win the "MOCKINGBIRD" CONTEST, then I hope you do!
And I adore you, too. Honesty, I do. :o)
This was fun, wasn't it?

Google found your site for me--probably because Robert J. Medak's blog is being channeled to your blog page and he just reviewed my multi award-winning The Frugal Editor. Seems we should have connected a long time ago. Won't you drop by and see what you think?
