Win a $10 Gift Certificate to OneBookShelf - Just Name My Dragon to Enter
Just a reminder that yesterday's contest is going on through Sunday evening, at which point entries will be closed and then poll will be posted. The winner of the poll gets the $10 gift certificate, and the name they entered for the dragon in the video attaches to him permanently. I might add another prize or two for the runner ups.
Isn't he just cute? :)
