I’m straying from my usual tip-giving to share an exciting announcement: A team of awesome people have been helping me compile a WFMW ebook!
It’s called That Works For Me: Tried and True Tips from Works For Me Wednesday and it’s featuring hundreds and hundreds of the greatest tips from you.
Can I get a woot?
For the first time, the best tips from carnivals over the past several years will be organized in a searchable, categorized easy-to-use ebook!
It will be released Spring of 2012.
If you participate regularly in WFMW, please check your inbox (or comments if you don’t have an email on your blog) for a time sensitive email in case one of your tips was chosen for the ebook.
A portion of the proceeds will benefit Mercy House.
[Updated] I forgot to mention that my portion of the proceeds are going towards our savings fund to bring our kids back to Africa with us this summer to do our annual staff development, skill training and develop our new community program for single moms.
I hope you’re as excited as we are!
Because that works for me.
AND—to celebrate this fun news, I’m mixing it up with a thumbnail picture linky instead of what we normally do. I’ve been thinking about trying it. Make sure you leave your preference in the comments: regular linky or picture.
I don’t have a tip this week – but I wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS and WOO HOO on the ebook!! I’m so thrilled, honored and excited to have one of my tips featured, and I can’t wait to read the rest of the great tips in the book!
Awesome on the book! Thank you so much for hosting this link up every week
Excited about the book!! Congrats! And I prefer the linky with the picture! Thanks!
Looking forward to the eBook! I filled out my information earlier tonight!
Thanks for hosting Kristen!

Oops – forgot to say – I MUCH prefer the thumbnail picture.
Thanks Kristen!
Love the picture linky, and can’t wait for the ebook!
Congrats about the book. So exciting! I can’t wait for it. I am a very visual person so I love seeing all the pretty pictures. Vicky from Mess For Less
LOVE the image linkys… and SO excited about the book! Way to go! Thanks for featuring one of my tips.
I love WFMW and can’t wait for the ebook’s release!
I’m not a fan of the picture linky. To me, it makes it harder to scan what people have posted, and I don’t like having to find a picture for my link.
Woot! on the ebook!
I agree completely on both points. Looking forward to the ebook!
Yay! I’m excited about this. Congratulations on the upcoming ebook! I can’t wait. =)
Cover looks great.
(And I love that new pic of you + your husband)
So exciting! Congrats on the book and having such a faithful following! I like pics
I really really prefer the list because there is too much scrolling down to view the pictures and my old computer doesn’t scroll without a lot of complaining and crashes.
I like the pictures, but many times the tips that I am sharing do not include a picture. I could certainly try to take a picture of a basket of clothes if I am posting about laundry, but it’s not something I would normally do. I could go either way, but think the list was good.
Congrats on the book! I love your party. This week I linked up some Cranberry Ricotta Pancakes and some yummy Banana Honey Bran Bread! enjoy
So excited about the eBook! Congratulations! And I miss the text-only link party! I think there are so many great posts that don’t have pictures….
Congratulations on the upcoming e-book! I’m so glad that part of the proceeds are going to Mercy House.
Personally, I prefer the standard text linky. With the pictures it’s harder to read the link titles, and will so many people who participate in WFMW, it looks a little bulky. But that’s just my opinion.
Today I’m linking up a yummy cheeseburger pie recipe that’s always a hit with my family!
Congrats on your book! I like pictures as it catches my eye. The only complaint I have is that I’ve noticed that it makes some blogs load very slow!
Congrats, I’m honored to share! Have a blessed week.
Awesome idea with the ebook! I personally prefer the list without the pics. It’s easier to scan to me. And sometimes I just don’t have a picture to share (like this week).
Aweseomesauce on the book! Always love your link up. I’m partial to linky up with photos but I’m a visual person. Either way, I”ll be here once a week, at least, linking up and checking out the other link ups!

Hi Kristen! I put up #140 Kill Mold Naturally Now! It’s actually far more interesting than it sounds1!
I’m hosting a weekly linky which is all about seasonal celebration and would love it if you popped over and linked this post! It would be great to introduce your blog to my subscribers! Seasonal Celebration Linky http://naturalmothersnetwork.com/seasonal-celebration-sunday/seasonal-celebration/ Really hope to see you there! Rebecca x
Congrats!

I prefer pictures, a lot of times I won’t even linkup or view the regulat linkups because I have limited time to read each one to see if I’m interested in the link. With pics I can decide quickly if it’s something I’m interested in
Hi Kristen, so excited about the book! Linking up a swimsuit recommendation. I found a swimsuit that works for me…after trying on two hundred or so. LOL!
This is my first time linking up with WFMW! I have to say that I prefer the list linky, because I don’t always have a photo in my posts.
I’m so excited to see your book announcement, and honored to be a part of it! Hooray!
I’m so glad that you are doing a linky with pictures! I am so much more of a visual person. Sometimes titles of things can be deceiving and even sound boring-but they are really good projects!
I linked up two projects today:
When life gives you too many scarves-make a shirt! My Springy, Silky Scarf Shirt. It’s easy to make, fun to wear and looks good on everyone.
And I created Free Bachelor Bingo that accompanies watching the Bachelor on Monday nights. It’s a great way to interact with friends or family while you’re watching!
Have a great week!

I really like the pictures!
Love the photo linky. Congratulations on the book!
I’ll be here, picture or no pictures!
Yay for the book…and yay for that cute valentine picture of you & the hubby! ♥
Woot!!! So excited to be included in your e-book! Thanks for including me!
Congratulations on the new book! That is so exciting!! I wish you all the best with it. I really like a linky with pictures, gives me an idea as to what I’m clicking on. Thanks for hosting!
Congrats on the book and thanks for hosting this every week!! I like the thumbnail linky!
YAY for a new book – loved your first one – read it in one sitting – re-read it as time permits! I know this one will be great!
I lkike the thumbnail linky – blessings!
The pictures are great! But for me, I kinda messed up in posting mine and put my name instead of the name of the post (number 209). Think you could delete that for me? Thanks
Initially liked the pictures, but it seems less organized than when it was just words. It also takes longer to go through. Just my .02.
I’m SO (dramatic pause) excited about the book! I think the thumbnail picture is kinda fun!!
Congrats on the new book!
Love the thumbnail picture linky! And what a neat e-book.
I’m excited for the ebook! I like the picture linky — I don’t really look at the pics, but I like the space b/t the text. I find it hard to browse the all-text linkies.
I like pics!!
I like the picture linky, too, though it makes the linky list even longer than usual! Very excited about the ebook, and I’m so blessed to be included. Can’t wait to see it!
WOOT WOOT
I think this is my first time at this party. It looks like it is really fun. I look forward to the ebook. I link up to several parties that use pictures so usually have one available, but I don’t have a preference. I will be going back through your blogs and checking out some of the older parties. Today I brought Red Velvet Cherry Bars. I will be back, pictures or not. Thanks for hosting and have a great week.
I like the pictures better than the words!
Thank you for hosting again! Congratulations on your book! I know it will be fabulous.
Woot! So excited about the ebook! Thanks for including one of my tips. I like the picture linky.
How exciting for an ebook… makes me wish I had submitted more tips over the years!!
I am a fan of picture linkys because I am a visual person… and if there is not picture in the blog, it’s fun to see a picture of the writer of the blog.
I love the linky pic…I’m a visual person and I just have to see a pic and it saves me a lot of time. I can’t wait for the ebook..it will be the first one I will buy…love your service to our God,your husband and kids!
I prefer the old linky way. It’s easier to scan
The pictures are pretty, but to be honest i find it hard to scan through. And i kept trying to click the pic rather than the text underneath and then wonder why it wasn’t working
Linky pics!
i love WFMW- but i’m not bloggy enough to participate the majority of the time! i have done a few in the past, but obviously i wasn’t chosen for the book… i like the picture linkys, but it wouild be less overwhelming if the picture had to do with the post- it’s hard to sort through all the words AND non-related pictures. just sayin’…
Yay for the book!! I do love the pics, but I’m good either way – whatever “works for you” – LOL!
I loved as much as you will receive carried out right here.
