Ana's Advent Calendar

               

In my family growing up we never had an Advent Calendar. I never used one with my kids either. We celebrated Advent in church and anticipated Christmas.

Last year was the first time I actually did an Advent Calendar. Ana had me hooked!

Just a little laughter before I post Ms Ana's Calendar event!

I drew the banner for the , and Katie did the Graphics! In my mind I made the elf in the corner our very own Ms Anastasia Vitsky!

We all know what a naughty little elf she is!

Ami even decided to donate a pair of polka dotted knickers to strengthen the connection between my drawing and naughty elf Ana!

Ana’s Advent Calendar 2013

Do you remember, if you were lucky, having an advent calendar as a child?  The traditional kind had small, perforated paper windows to open for each day of December.  Each day’s window revealed a small surprise.  Usually it was a piece of chocolate or candy.  I never had one, but I envied the children who did.  Guess what?  We’re going to have an Advent Calendar, but we’re going to do it my way!

How will the advent calendar work, Ana style?  There will be rules.  Of course there will be rules.

• Sign up!  (Bonus point if you sign up before December 1st!) Be sure to leave your email address (so I can contact you if you are a winner) and book preferences (S for spanking, K for kinky or edge, and V for vanilla)!  This will ensure that I track your comments to give you credit for each day that you play.  If you have any trouble leaving a comment, please let me know immediately by email.  If you do not sign up, you will not get credit for your entries!
• Play daily.  Leave a comment responding to a post or answering a daily Advent Calendar question.  Only one comment per post will count as an entry, but you are welcome and encouraged to leave additional comments as part of the conversation.
• Check for the winner list on Christmas Day!  Those who participate the most will win!

Yup, that’s it!  Oh, you want more rules?  Well, if you insist.  

• Surprise Checks!  Prizes will be awarded during random “surprise checks” throughout the month.  It may be the first person to post on a certain day, a randomly selected commenter on a randomly selected day, the first person to mention a secret word, or anything else.  Surprise!
• Perfect Attendance award!  Everyone who comments every day (by midnight EST on the day of each post) of the month will win a small surprise.
• Free book days!  A few authors will be offering one or more books free on select days in December.  Check for details on the blog throughout the month.
