The End
Haven't you always wanted to do an Oscar-winner speech for something? Well, I'm honored to find out that many of you think my blog, my cause, and my artwork are worth a large donation, and I think that means I'm a winner. I'm nearly to my goal!
In such a case, I believe a speech is appropriate. So here goes! With a little help by the Online Oscar Speech Generator...
Twyla's Acceptance Speech for the Best Blogathon Experience Ever Award:
Thank you everyone! I can hardly believe this! I feel so blessed! And this big pile of money you've donated - it's so shiny! Oh, thank you again! I just want everyone to know that even in my wildest dreams, I never would have imagined that you'd donate so much! And to the other super-amazing bloggers, I want each of you to know how totally wonderful your pledge amounts make me feel right now. You know when they first told me how much money I'd made for charity by sitting in my chair and typing, I just had to take a minute and laugh about how generous my fans have been. I guess it all just makes me feel kinda special.
You know, there are so many people to thank! First off though, I want to thank the esteemed folks of the Blogathon, who looked deep within their hearts to start a program like this one! Also, I want to thank God, for being such a powerful force in my life. And my Mom, who taught me how to be so sarcastic and witty which is what made all of this so interesting... I want to thank all my sponsors for their kind generosity, And finally, a huge thank you to all the crazy people who think my artwork is cool and made big donations just to get some - I couldn't have done it without you!
Thanks to Eileen and Kate and Roberta for inspiring me! You ladies rock.

Thanks to all of you in the blogosphere and the big world, and good night! Remember - nobody should be for sale.
