Riddle Me A Contested Winner!!!

A week ago Friday, I introduced a contest for the masses, in which you had not only a chance for immortality but shot at a free book. All you had to do to enter was to suggest a new title for my recently deceased debut novel "Line 21".

I had a lot of people talk about it but only one person was brave enough to step forward and offer up a suggestion: fellow writer Peter John. His suggestion The Inner Sibling, will be the new title for my upcoming re-release of Line 21. Not only does he win a collector's edition copy of my novel, but he will be featured in the acknowledgement section of the re-release.

Since I now have a title, the next items up for completion will be: 1} a new cover and 2} new content for this exclusive e-book release.

I have a couple of graphic companies in mind that I would like to use, of which one I have used before. The other will require a little exploration/research.

To close out this post, I leave you with a recent pic of my daughter Jenelle, who at her last skating competition (of which I made a rare appearance at), finished 1st in reverse (aka, last place). Hey, sometimes as a parent you just have to put a positive spin on a disappointment.

  1. Bet Peter is glad he made a suggestion!
    Your daughter is cute. Heck with where she places, right?

  2. I bow to Peter John, who has a better imagination than I do. I quite like his title. And I hope your daughter is not discouraged by the skating results. It's the participation that's important. As long as she loves to skate, she should do it!

  3. Alex: I sure hope so. A little credit can always go a long way.

    Yes, she certainly is that (my Al Bundy days are coming soon for sure), and yes I agree with that other statement as well.

    Debra: I don't think so. This was one of her first competitions at her new level (previously was Pre-Juvenile and now is Juvenile), so it's just the matter of practice practice practice.

  6. IMHO children are subjected to far too many competitions these days. I hope that she sticks with it. She's a beautiful girl!

  7. S.R.: Thanks.

    She's actually toned down on her competitions since she started concentrating on skating about 4 years ago. By concentrating on skating competitions, I'm saving roughly $700 year by her not doing dancing competitions.
