We have lots of winners to announce from our birthday bash. First though, I want to take one more opportunity to thank our very generous sponsors: Amber Quill Press, Samhain Publishing, Dreamspinner Press, and Silver Publishing.

A few of the winners were announced earlier in the week, but here are the rest:

Signed paperback copy of Finding Zach, by Rowan Speedwell, is Gyn.

There are two Amber winners, Damond and Jayhjay. You’ll each receive an ebook of your choice from Amber Quill.

The winner of the 5 ebooks from Silver Publishing is Molly.

We had a drawing which I said was for a swag pack from Silver, but then I got confused and gave the swag pac away in the chat, so I’m giving this winner a coupon good for 20% off your entire purchase from Silver. That goes to Andi Byassee.

Now, for the scavenger hunts. Each winner here will receive a $50 gift certificate from Dreamspinner Press. For Scavenger Hunt #1, the answers were:

What makes this lovely boy a twink?
I guess I’ll have to stop and think.
He sure ain’t soft (make no mistake)
He’s not a slab of yellow cake.
He does look nice out of his wrapping
With that sweet ass so good for tapping.
I stare and wish with all my might
That I were there to take a bite.
I’d love to have him for myself
Can’t find him on my grocery shelf.
I gawk and gasp, as I keep wishin’
No closer to the definition.
I know at last! A point of pride
They’ll both…ahem…have cream inside.

All of our winners will be contacted via email about claiming your prizes. We hope you all enjoyed our birthday bash! Thanks so much for being here and making this site as fun as it is.
