More MUF-i-versary… Let the giveaways continue!

Last week, the MUF blog officially celebrated its 8th MUF-i-versary with loads of giveaways for our readers.

So what’s better than a bunch of giveaways? . . . Even MORE giveaways!

Since this is the second giveaway for the blog’s 8th MUF-i-sversary, I started doing some thinking (and some math . . .).

8 years . . . 8 books

2nd giveaway . . . 2 winners

8 books x 2 winners = 16 books

Do you see where this is headed? If not, it’s pretty simple—I’ve dug into the batch of advanced reader copies (ARCs) and other new middle-grade books littering my bookshelf and gathered 16 of them. I’ll select 2 lucky winners who will each receive 8 free books.

*Major shout-out to Simon & Schuster and Scholastic for sending us copies of so many great books we can feature on MUF and use in giveaways!

It’s hard to believe that MUF has been around for 8 years (and I’ve been around for 6 of those, writing and rambling about all-things middle-grade . . .). It has been an adventure, and I’ve enjoyed every moment of it. It’s exciting to see where MUF has been and where it’s now headed. A new look. New features. But always the same middle-grade love.

So . . . want a chance to REALLY share in the middle-grade love? Leave a comment on this post for a chance to win a batch of new middle-grade books. You can even earn extra entries by sharing about our giveaway on Facebook and Twitter, following MUF on Instagram, etc. Giveaway entries will be accepted through Friday, June 15th, 2018.

NOTE: Due to shipping costs, this giveaway is only open to mailing addresses in the United States.

Happy 8th MUF-i-versary! #Giveaways Galore

 

Happy Anniversary to the Mixed-Up Files of Middle Grade Authors blog. Can you believe it’s been 8 years already?  To celebrate our anniversary, we gave ourselves a rockin’ new face lift!  Did you  notice?

We have brought this blog firmly into the 21st century with our updated and  dynamic new home page.  All of your favorite topics are right at your fingertips.  Each post has been placed into a specific category so if you need to look for one, you can just click on the drop down tab and go. Of course, we still have our search the blog option available, but using categories should make things a whole lot easier.

Take a moment and look around. Scroll up and down. See how things zoom across the page at you? Did our smiling faces across the bottom make you want to smile back? Great!  That was our goal.

After all, we want this blog to be a great place for you to visit when you need the latest information on all things Middle Grade KidLit.  But don’t worry, our face lift is not just cosmetic, we have some changes in store for you as well. We have already brought you STEM Tuesday, but now we will be bringing in two new features in the next few months:

Agent & Editor Spotlight   and  Teacher Tips Thursday

Stand by for more information on these exciting additions soon.

For now, our final party of our celebration is our gift to YOU.
