I’m a little behind in letting you meet the winners of my First Friday Freebie.

Check out the First Friday Freebie rules below. You’ll find out how simple it is to enter to win.  This is a special monthly gift for my email subscribers only.

Meet August’s winner –

Liz from Boonville, Missouri.

Congratulations, Liz! 

Liz is shown here with the “Welcome Home” decor she won. As an email subscriber, Liz commented as directed in the freebie post on the day it arrived in her inbox.  I require this tiny bit of effort each month in order to prevent spam and make sure you’re on your toes and paying attention. 

I send freebies anywhere in the continental U. S., so don’t think you’re too far away to enter.

If you’d like to see other past winners and their gifts check it out here on my Freebies! page.

You can see the original First Friday Freebie offer for the one Liz won here. 

Trying to subscribe?  Here are a couple of tips –     

NOTE:  Subscribe with an email you intend to keep and check the week after the drawings.  This is my only means of notifying winners.  If it isn’t up to date, you may not get your gift!

We live in a life filled with gadgets and you’ll find that this blog can have a different appearance depending on whether you are on your computer, tablet or smartphone.  You can easily navigate to “SUBSCRIBE” at the top of the page or in the drop-down menu. Then, fill in your email and hit the “SUBSCRIBE” button.  Confirm your subscription when the email arrives.  If you’ve don’t receive a confirmation email, please email me at barb@midweststoryteller.com – it seems that from time to time, a subscription will get “stuck”. 

Subscribers get an email reminder each time there’s something new – like when there’s a FREEBIE, news on my “Morgan’s Landing” novel series, a new story or recipe.

Please share what you find here with your friends and family.  When you share on MeWe, Facebook, Instagram, X, Pinterest, you’ll give them the opportunity to subscribe and win also.  Subscribing is free.  Freebies are free. 

On October 3rd, you’ll see the new Freebie.  Enter to win that day.  Then, check your email in the days following. 

Smartphone reminders help.

Though we’ve turned the page to October, the leaves are still green and the temperatures are very warm out. I’m hoping that autumn arrives and stays a good, long while.    

Leave a comment – have you any ideas for fun activities that fit between naps so that Lil’ Snookie and Fruity Pebbles can get as much fall fun in as possible before cold weather comes?
