Welcome to A Shady Glade Christmas 2011

Well, today is the first of December, so that means....

A Shady Glade Christmas 2011!

A Shady Glade Christmas is back for the third year. I really struggled with this feature last year, mostly because I hadn't planned on doing it again after my first time in 2009. But a lot of people asked me if I was doing it again, and so 2010 went on with a little struggle.

BUT, this year I did plan! So hopefully it will be great this year. I know for sure I've got lots of Christmas and winter themed book prizes to give away this year. Because getting presents this time of year is always fun. :)

For those of you who are new, A Shady Glade Christmas is a series of posts celebrating all things Christmas, wintery, and holiday. There is (hopefully) one post a day from now until Christmas on the 25th. There's book reviews, reflections, gift lists, and of course the always popular 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway.

If you'd like to join in, I am always really excited to have people submit guest posts. Share with us your favorite winter/Christmas/holiday book/movie/song/tradition. It doesn't have to be long or fancy, and don't worry if you're not a good writer. It's the content we care about after all. If you're interested in doing a guest post, check out the call for them at this post.

And if you have a blog, make sure you grab some bling for your blog. It might earn you some extra entries for contests later. *hint hint*
