Yes, this is what I am asking of you. There is a fabulous contest put on by Stella Cameron every year called the Scarlett Boa. This year, the contest is for the best paranormal opening scene. My darling mother told me about this contest and after lots of discussion with some of my very PUSHY friends, I entered. So what I need from you is simple- go read the entries and vote for your favorite (Scene 15). No worries if you don’t vote for me. I think it is every writer for him or her self. (Although, you know what? If you don’t vote for me, the next time you see me, I may be huddled in the corner under the counter, rocking back and forth muttering nonsense about how I was one vote away or some such shit. So if you can live with that guilt, then go ahead and pass right over Scene 15.)
Really, I want you to read the entries and vote for your favorites. There are some REALLY good ones. I am up against some tough competition, including some of my fellow Samhain authors. First round voting closes on the 15th so hurry! Go forth and vote! It is easy to do. Simply click on the photo below to be taken to the page with all the fabulous entries. Read them. Take notes. Then when you are ready to place your vote, scroll down to where it says Important Dates. Click on first round voting (should be highlighted white) and fill out the entry form. Easy as pie! Happy reading and good luck to all my fellow authors!
There are some good entries. I haven’t made through them all as of yet, but I like your entry the best so far.
