And the Summer Winner Is.....

Hello! Sorry I'm a little late in getting this up. My excuse is a government test, but you know, who likes excuses?

So, thanks to randomizer.org, the winner is Cheyanne! Please e-mail me at christacarol_jones(at)yahoo(dot)com with your mailing address and which critique you'd like: First 10 pages, Query, or 2-5 page Synopsis. CONGRATS!!!


I really enjoyed reading all of your favorite childhood memories in the summertime. While I have many memories of running barefoot after the ice cream truck (and the ice cream man frequently giving me an extra free treat), I also have vivid memories of running through the neighborhood to squeeze out of the small crack in the brick wall, cross the busy street to 7-11, and spend a looong time picking out which jolly ranchers I wanted (for 5 cents each) and filling up a Big Gulp with Slurpees. And then there were the times me and a neighbor would tie a pillow case around our necks and run around the street jumping off mailboxes (um, the brick ones) pretending to be Wonder Woman. All of this, of course, was done barefoot.

I hope everyone is having a saucy summer so far! Bare with me as I play around with the new template thingie majig. I need to fix my header now, it annoys me being off-center! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to crash. With music camp in the mornings and swim lessons in the late afternoons followed by night school, I'm ZAPPED.

SHINE ON!
