WE HAVE A WINNER (MAKE THAT 2!)

Karen McNamara and Kelly Kilmer both guessed the person who made the journal that was rak-ed to me by my friend Sharon.

Susan Atkins (aka Sadie Mae Glutz) was convicted for her part in the Tate-Labiance murders in 1969.

In 1999, Susan Atkins attended a watercolor class and enjoyed the medium so much that she has been studying art ever since. She has taken art classes offered at the prison, read art books and magazines, and practiced as often as she could.

Not sure, but I read that she has brain cancer, has lost a leg, and is trying to get out on parole because she only has a few months to live.

I've decided that both Karen AND Kelly are the winners. This contest was sort of tough. So CONGRATULATIONS to both of you! Karen, e-mail me your snail mail address and what you would like from my etsy shop. Kelly, I already have your snail mail address, so just let me know what you want from my shop!

I'm surprised blogger buddies! So far none of you have come up with the winning name of the journal maker. What's going on? Too much Halloween celebration this past weekend?

Here are the clues that have been given so far:

The journal maker's name starts with an "S"
1969
resides in Southern California
May 7th
October 1st
convicted

Ok, I'm generous, here are a few additional clues: the journal maker is female, infamous, currently hospitalized

Now hurry up and figure it out. I've added some new items in my etsy shop, but some of the etsy items you wrote that you would like to receive if you won, have already been SOLD! Don't miss out on something else you may want to get FOR FREE.
