Upon further information regarding Chad’s accident, I now know my original idea of his injuries was much more accurate than I gave myself credit for.
Therefore, I’ll be going back and adding in much more serious injuries to his hand, face, and arm as well as a broken rib. Furthermore, he stayed an extra night so both chapters 115 and 116 will have to reflect that. I’m just making notations in the manuscript at this time and will add that info when it comes time to edit.
Sorry about the confusion but I erred on the side of underestimating damage rather than overestimating and I think it was best but now that I know what I know, it’s time to make it more accurate.
I was talking with my eldest the other day and she pointed out what a great blog prize a Willow Tree figurine would be for this story. Well now, I’m not a big fan of most of the Willow Tree things but occasionally I see one that makes me smile at least. This one wrung my heart. For the first time, I see raw emotion. (I will be buying from the above website since I found it on there.)
This woman, to me, is a perfect representation of Kari. She’s protective (The name of the piece is The Guardian). She’s there to be the buffer against the storms of this world- a shield against evil. But there’s more to it than that. I see vulnerability in the woman. She’s so strong, protective, but she isn’t invincible. It just fit the story perfectly.
So, this is the prize. I will have this shipped to the winner. But what is the contest? Glad you asked.
Write somethign for Willow. It can be dialogue, a journal entry for Kari, a scenario- anything. It doesn’t have to be polished. It might even not end up looking like you intended it to by the time I incorporate it into the story (because people interpret differently etc) but the winning entry will get
1. The above figurine sent to the address of their choice
and
2. Their idea “published” in the story.
This contest ends, Wednesday, September 30 at 6:00 PM PST. I’ll post a winner ASAP.
Enter as often as you like. Sky is truly the limit. (Well, our atmosphere is. No sending her to the moon. I won’t use it. Snort.)
If I was going to use something OTHER than Past Forward (Which I still love) I think Anne’s simple title,
Willow
would be it.
I tend to think of all of my books as the main character’s name anyway. I have Alexa, Grace, Ami, Hope, Ella…. the list goes on for HOURS (ok, not hours but it’s knd of pathetic)
So Anne…. Email me your addy and watch in the mail for…
