Congrats
I just read that entry and it is fabulous. And despite a genre bursting at the seams this seems fresh and intriguing. You had me from the first line to the last. I would read this book without question. You deserved to be picked. I wish you tons of good fortune going forward.
Wow thanks Tricia! And thanks Gaby!
OMG Valerie! You said our stories sounded similar but WOW! Our character would totally be bff:)
CONGRATS! You deserve it!
Congratulations Valerie, I thought your entry was terrific - very short but you said a lot with such few words. The scene was powerful and I can guarantee that most people would want to continue reading!! How long did it take for you to come up with this? Is it part of a larger story? Have you been signed now?
Candyland - I told you! LOL
Lynsey - Thanks so much! The entry is the first 250 words of my novel Imaginary Heart. I'm not sure how long it took me to come up with the idea. I just sort of had it one day and I wrote the first draft of the book during NaNoWriMo, so it took me about a month. Haven't been signed yet. That's the next goal!
Awesome news! Congrats!
Wierd, I have a WIP named Imaginary Sunshine with a MC named Rainy! Thought I was being so original, lol.
Loved every word of your story so far. Good luck!!
Congrats, Valerie! I'm not stunned - it's an awesome book! :)
Wow, congrats! I just read the excerpt and it was awesome. I'm not surprised yours got picked!
Super-huge congratulations!!! :-)
OH! I can see why you won! So good. Huge congrats (Jennifer sounds awesome)
Congratulations! That's awesome.
Congrats! Seems like your jump from filmmaking to writing is going to be a ginormous hit!
What prize did you choose?
I was one of the ten, too:
Entry 37: DRAIN.
Congratulations! I loved your entry.
Thanks too for your lovely comment on my SA entry (No 15 Emma Undone) it was a great to have such a nice first comment.
Good Luck!
Congrats-- really nice entry!
Oh MY, no wonder you won. That makes a great beginning to a novel. Congratulations, and good work!
Wow, congrats! And that was an amazing entry. I got goosebumps as I read it. You are a gifted writer!!!
SOOO exciting! Mucho congrats!
woah congrats! Gonna pop over now to read your excerpt! :)
Yea - I picked yours as my favorite without knowing it was you. (I'm way jealous, because I'm one that entered, got no confirmation or rejection, and have no idea why it didn't work.) I'm a teacher and one of my favorite students is Raine. My heart breaks a little everytime some says "Raine, Raine, go away, come again another day." Stupid bullies.
