Thanks so much for visiting my website. I love to get 
 comments, suggestions and advice from fellow sweepers, so 
 please contact me! Here’s a little peek at the author behind
 Sweepstakes 123 and Sweepstakes 456 and some secrets as to
 what drew me into the world of sweepstaking.

 I have been an avid sweepstaker for many years and every day I
 look forward to it being THE ONE, the day when I win the big
 one. I began this hobby when we were down and out financially
 and I needed something to give me hope. That mean old mailbox
 was spitting out bills faster than an ATM machine and I wanted
 something to change. Now, with sweepstaking, every trip to the mailbox is a walk down fantasy lane and many times I have not been disappointed. It's Christmas every day of the year in my mind.

I’m an optimist who believes if your circumstances are not what you want them to be, find some way to change them.

I am also an author so I have learned how to take rejection, whether that is a rejection from a publisher or losing a contest. I forget yesterday and look towards tomorrow as a brand new opportunity. To learn more about how I juggle working a full time job, writing books, publishing a Contest and Sweepstakes column on Bellaonline and this wonderful, zany hobby called sweepstaking, please visit my website at Engaged-devotional.com.

I raised two wonderful children and have been married for 36 years. Will I ever quit entering sweepstakes? I don’t think so. My motto is if you don’t enter, you can’t possible win. As long as there are sweeps going on, you’ll find at least one entry in them with my name on it.

So all in all, I have already been successful at the most important things in life. If I never win another contest, I’m a winner at life!

Remember I told you I'd give you a "peek?" Well here you go.

 This is a picture of me that was posted on   BluBlocker's website after I won their contest. The  skill contest called for an essay on how you spend your time on the computer. I wrote on shopping Macy's while in my pajamas. Now that's what I call sweepstaking passion! Anything for a win.
