Win a free homesteading calendar!
The 2014 Homesteading Calendar is now ready to preorder! You can
see all the pages and read far more than you probably care to hear on its official page. The most relevant points are:
- Mark's step-Mom, Jayne, is 80% responsible for making this calendar a reality. Thank you, Jayne!
- It's pretty! The proof copy is shown above --- the real calendar will look slightly different, mostly in that it will be stitched instead of spiral bound. I liked the proof so much I immediately sent it on to my mother, who was over the moon about it.
- It costs $11.99 plus $2 shipping (with the shipping not increasing
no matter how many calendars you buy). (Sorry we weren't able to
keep the price down to $9.99 --- we went for pretty instead of cheap.)
My only reservation about
this calendar project was my terror that we'd end up with boxes of
perishable product that are suddenly useless on January 1. So I
hope you'll help me spread the word so that all 300 copies find happy
homes in the next two months!
To sweeten the pot, we're
going to draw a name out of the hat and give away a free calendar next
week. To enter the drawing, spread the word in any way you want
--- in person, on facebook, on your blog, etc. --- then leave a comment
with a note on your efforts by midnight November 3, 2013. I'll add
your name into the hat once for every venue you hit, and then I'll use a
random number generator to pick the winner. Be sure to check back
here Monday to see who wins so you can collect your prize!

What Calendar program are you using to create this calendar? I have sued one called Photo Calendar Creator Pro, but I do not think it can do everything yours is displaying. Thank you.
