T-shirt winners are:

• Commenter Melissa
• Commenter Cyprienne
• Facebook user Rachel Slavin
• Tumblr user starluxury
• One of my fave bloggers, Fear Street (who, by the way, is doing a horror-related post every day this month because October is awesome)

And the lucky winner of one hardcover copy of Sweet Valley Confidential is my good friend Megan at Trapped in the Attic. (And please go check out her blog if you want some hilarious V. C. Andrews snark.)

Thank you so much to everyone who entered! Winners, send your mailing addresses to me at shannon@shannonsweetvalley.com. Your shirts will ship directly from Sarah at St. Martin’s Press because she’s amazing. Big thanks to her for making this giveaway possible!

As if that weren’t enough to make your Tuesday afternoon, I also have an extra hardcover copy of SVC just chilling on my bookshelf, and I figure this is as good a time as any to give it away.

I want to make this is easy as possible, both for you guys to enter and for me to keep track of. So here’s what you can do:

1. Reblog this post on Tumblr. Everyone who shows up in my feed as having reblogged it will get an entry.
2. Retweet this tweet on Twitter. Everyone who retweets gets an entry.
3. Go to my Facebook page and share the link I put up. Everyone who shares the link gets an entry.
4. Leave a comment on this post and tell me you want in!

So, you can potentially have four entries. I’ll announce the six winners on Thursday morning!

Since I was clearly quite fashionable in the 90s, I decided to write about my favorite clothing item: Umbro shorts. You can read my post here. After you get totally blown away by me and my Umbros, check out the rest of the Children of the 90s blog. I promise, you will not regret it. And while you’re at it, make sure to follow Children of the 90s on Twitter and Facebook.

Thanks to everyone who participated, and I hope you all enjoyed Sweet Valley Confidential day! We’ll return to our regular Sweet Valley Twins posting schedule next week.

In other news, it appears Lila Fowler is living in Atlanta these days. This pictures was snapped by Anne, a reader who knew we would all be interested. We’re not one hundred percent sure, but we think that looks like a lime green Triumph.

Just to let everyone know, I’ve already finished reading the first Sweet Valley University book. Todd sure is a jackass, huh? Recaps will be forthcoming, probably in the next few weeks. In the meantime, you should check out Lorelai’s blog, ABC Not-Just-For-Kids. Join her as she talks about 90210, Lizzie McGuire, Sesame Street and some Australian shows I never heard of but want to see now that I’ve read Lorelai’s recaps.

Congrats again, Lorelai!

First, the good news: a really amazing reader, Talya, has offered to send me her entire collection of Sweet Valley University books. I should be receiving them this week, and then I can get started on recaps! Thanks, Talya!

I’ll have another similar giveaway coming up very soon. Thanks to everyone who participated!

I created a couple designs for t-shirts and stuff, and I’m giving away the first batch – a t-shirt, coffee mug and magnet – along with Lila’s Story and Bruce’s Story. Because who couldn’t use a little more Lila and Bruce in their lives?
