Ever Wonder Who Wins Giveaways with What Entries?

by Chautona Havig · 2 Comments

Well, I’m going to tell you this time. I’m going to tell you what entries became the winning entries! I mean, why not?  It’s fun information, right? I mean, did your newsletter sign-up get you the prize? What number was it?  Were you the first entry?  The last?  A generic middle?

who wins

(Note:: links in this post may be affiliate links and I’ll receive a small commission at no extra expense to you.)

So… let’s look at the three winners of the I Heart You Collection.

I mean we have three winners.  Who won?  Why?  Let’s check it out.

Winner #1: Rosetta
Entry Method: Comment Form  (I make my husband a nice dinner and we spend the time together enjoying each others company.)
Entry Number: 1316

Winner #2: Sarah
Entry Method: Email (the first thing you do to start the entries!)
Entry Number: 518

Winner #3:  Julie
Entry Method: “Other” (it doesn’t tell me which one)
Entry Number: 324

I want to point something out.  

Look at “Other.”  That one.  Have you ever wondered, “Who wins with an ‘other’ entry?”  Well… Julie did!  Those little things do make a difference sometimes!  So, if you wonder if it’s worth the time?  Well, any one of these people could have been that number one winner.  So yes! I think it’s totally worth it.

So what won the whole box?

Grand Prize Winner: Elizabeth G
Entry Method: Twitter Follow
Entry Number: 1672

Just a simple Twitter follow!  And it was LATE in the game.  According to PromoSimple, there were 1602 entries.  Why it says that Elizabeth was Entry 1672?  I have NO clue.  But it did.

I used the Random.org option within the widget, and it spat out these names. That’s it.  That’s all I did.  And it chose the winners. It’s so cool!!!

Did you see the other cool thing?  I have never seen this happen before, but look at those numbers. They’re all even numbers.  I’m pretty sure that has never happened.

congratulations

There you have it! Who wins these things?  These guys did!  Congrats all!

Book winners, please contact me with the email address you’d like your book sent to.  Elizabeth, check your email!  I’ll be asking for your address!

UPDATE:

According to the spreadsheet of individual entries, there are 1845.  So I don’t know where PromoSimple came up with 1602 in the dashboard, but considering number 1672 won, I think the 1845 is much more accurate.

    I wasn’t sure if you got my email. I was excited to see I was one of the winners in your Valentine contest. You are one of my favorite authors. My daughter Jennifer got me hooked on your books. Always look forward to the next book coming. Thank you, Rosetta Miles

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 594: A Chat with Joy Crain
byChautona Havig

If you love a good royal romance, you won’t want to miss the third Royals of Andelar book, The Promise of a Princess. Listen in as Joy and I chat about this third book (and wait’ll you hear about the second half! EEEP!).

note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.

Don’t know about you, but I’m pretty sure I’d never want to be royalty. The stuff they go through. That said… I sure do like watching authors torture them on the page. All the drama, none of the real strain.

The Promise of a Princess by Joy Crain

The Royals of Andelar, Book 3

Princess Genevieve’s life seems like a dream. She has a loving family, a devoted fiancé, and a future set in stone. But beneath the perfection lies a secret she has guarded for years, one that could shatter everything if it were ever revealed. When an ancient doctrine resurfaces and threatens the very foundation of the monarchy, Genevieve is forced to face a choice that will cost her more than she ever imagined.

Learn more about Joy on White Crown’s WEBSITE and follow on Goodreads.
