2013 Creative Pay it Forward - slight update

Once of my friends on Facebook (FB) made this suggestion and I thought it was a great idea, so I posted it on my FB page: "2013 Creative Pay It Forward: The first five of my friends to comment will receive a random gift from me sometime during the year...maybe something handcrafted, maybe a book, baked goodies, a surprise! Your gift will arrive whenever the mood strikes me without warning. Here's the only requirement: You have to post this on your wall as well and commit do doing the same for five of your friends. Please message me with your address if I don't already have it."

I got 5 people to comment and agree to re-post and do the same. I got to thinking why not promote this in blog land too, and you don't have to be one of the 5 people to comment to carry it on either.

So here goes my attempt in blog land. Sorry you must have a blog to participate.

The first 5 people to comment on my blog and then post a link to their blog doing the same Creative Pay it Forward will get a random gift from me sometime during the year. If you are one of those first 5 please include an email address I can contact you at if your blog does not have that information. Thanks. Also I give you permission to copy and paste any of my words in this post if it will help you with your blog post.

Since I have comment moderation on, I will keep checking the comments more often than normal until I get the 5 participants. But, if you see 5 comments, still check them out since not all may be participating.

If you are not fast enough to comment, please consider doing a Pay if Forward on your blog anyway, we should start the year out on a fun positive note!
