As promised on Friday here are the two contests in celebration of Blog Jog Day:

First contest:

The Golden Pathway e-book giveaway and as an added bonus The Golden Pathway Educator's Guide PDF. A $20 value.

Synopsis:
Be transported through time to the Underground Railroad, where high-pitched screams echo each night. David’s cruel Pa always chooses the same victim. Despite the circumstances during slavery, David uncovers the courage to defy his Pa.


Raised in a hostile environment where abuse occurs daily, David attempts to break the mold and befriends the slave, Jenkins, owned by his Pa. Fighting against extraordinary times and beliefs, David attempts to lead Jenkins to freedom with no regard for his own safety and possible consequences dealt out by his Pa.

The Golden Pathway Educator's Guide is a comprehensive across the curriculum based teaching tool for English, Social Studies, Math, Science, and Art teachers, as well as Homeschooling families. The PDF guide is 25 pages. 


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Second Contest:
 

Dynamic Media Release Services - one free media release written and distributed to five on-line media release sites. A $60 value.

You’ll discuss your good news and happenings to get a clear indication of your direction. Your valuable information will then be written into a dynamic media release and provided to you for your networking purposes. Even if you don't have publishing credits under your belt or even if you aren't a writer, announcing guest interviews or your topic of choice will help draw traffic and recognition to you and your blog.  

All you have to do is: 

• Leave a comment (be sure to leave your email) and indicate which contest you would like to enter or both.
• Become a follower (be sure to leave your blog address so I can follow you back) at The Golden Pathway blog.
