Thanks for following my blog so closely!!!!!!!!!
And also, I can't post my query letter :( Turns out its a no-no. Yeah, sorry about that. BUT, because I feel bad (and also because I like to help others out), I've decided to hold a contest instead.
Those of you intimate with my critique style, like the wonderful Ruth Lauren Steven, know that I'm a nitpicky grammar Nazi. Also, I like little smiley faces. So enter the contest at your own risk :)
So what is this contest, you ask? What are the rules, you say?
Rules:
1) Follow my blog
2) Write a caption to the picture below (in the comments section). The picture is of my husband and my son (when he was wee). If you look closely, you can see Ben is clutching onto my husband's hair for dear life. It's hilarious. ONE ENTRY PER CONTESTANT. Fine, two per contestant. Best caption wins.
3) There were only 2 rules.
The Prizes:
First place: 10 page critique by non-other than me
Second place: 5 page critique
Third place: Query letter critique (not for public viewing!)
So come on, people! Don't be shy! Any kind of caption flies! Have fun! Get creative! Get funny! (or not, that's okay too). CONTEST CLOSES WEDNESDAY MARCH 21ST at 3PM EST.
I figure I've got a solid couple of minutes before anyone notices their kid is missing.
ReplyDeleteHe won't be smiling for long once he realizes what I'm doing up here.
ReplyDeleteThis is crap. Mum's hair is WAY more fun to rip out. And she's got those things off her ears to pull too!
ReplyDelete"How long until this is over?"
ReplyDeleteI know that thing behind the hay stack is the Big Red Chicken from Dora. What's wrong with you, man. Run!

ReplyDeleteIn the wrong places, that's where :D
Just grin and bear it, just grin and bear it...
ReplyDeleteWho are you and what have you done with my Mommy?
ReplyDelete"Turn me around to see that creepy hay-chicken again and you'll be the next spokesman for Hair Club for Men."
ReplyDeleteThis stopped being fun a long time ago, Dad. So last year.
ReplyDeleteI demand to be taken to Wiggles and Giggles at once!
ReplyDeleteThe only thing we have to fear is...oh, hell, falling from great heights!
ReplyDeleteThe chicken...cannot...be trusted....
ReplyDeleteI hear this is how Matt Roloff sometimes gets around the pumpkin patch when the cameras aren't rolling. ZING!
ReplyDeleteI'm not paying you to showboat. Giddyup!!
ReplyDelete-OMG THE UNICORN APOCALYPSE IS COMING!! Daddy, save me!!!!
ReplyDelete-Relax, kid, they're just unicorns. Furry, friendly, sparkly horses with horns on their foreheads...
