The jack-o-lanterns have all been extinguished and the trick-or-treaters tucked safely in bed, their little limbs twitching from excitement and sugar overload. Thus we come to the end of the 1st Annual Coffin Hop. The whole affair was a roaring success, made possible by Axel Howerton and Julie Jansen, as well as 100 talented writers, publishers and artists in the horror field. I would like to thank them all and say it’s been a pleasure to meet and work with every one of them. But mostly, I would like to thank you, the readers, without whom, this would have been a pointless exercise. You are all rockstars in my book!

To give you an idea of the attention this blog hop generated, I can give you my own personal numbers. Over the last 7 days, I have received over 3,000 hits to my webpage with around 1,200 of them unique. I aquired 39 new subscribers to my blog, and made literally dozens of new friends. The organizers of the event have decided to make this an annual, if not bi-annual, occurance, and I greatly look forward to working with them again. The best news is that I have been recently bombarded by e-mails from Africa that offer me millions of dollars! Yay me! Looks like I’m about to be rich, suckas!

Okay! I have probably made you wait long enough. The winner of my contest, determined by a highly scientific process involving a bunch of tiny slips of paper and a mixing bowl is…….Jennifer Smith! Thank you so much for the support Jennifer. I will be sending out the big box-o-swag as soon as I hear back from you! I hope everyone else had as much fun as I did with the Coffin Hop, and I hope your Halloween was a fun and successful night 🙂 Only 364 more days until the next one. Now that’s scary…
