T-shirt Contest

It's J's blogjacking wife again. I am a very brave person. I just woke up a sleeping author and had him draw a folded up sticky note out of a cup. (Don't worry, he went right back to sleep.)

So... I can now announce that the winner of last week's T-shirt contest is... drumroll... Miss Arrogant. She won randomly (and not for her awesome comments) but I also love what she said: "Void City is fantastic and full of complex and witty characters. Eric is an easy favorite for his downright refusal to be the romantic vampire we've been getting an eyeful of lately. The lore of this world is fascinating and well-written. And Greta is frickin' awesome." Miss Arrogant, please send an email to janet@authoratlarge.com and let me know what size T-shirt you would like (subject to availability) and where I should send it. You are going to *love* CROSSED- it has lots of great Greta scenes. :) It'll be out in January.

That was fun! Let's do it again! In fact, I think I'll give away a T-shirt every week for the rest of October! To enter, please comment on this post and let me know 1) your favorite character from the Void City series 2) your choice of a theme song for your favorite character and 3) why you think that song fits that character. You've got all week to decide! We'll close the contest at 11:59 PM on Saturday, October 23. The winner will be random, but J does listen to music while he writes- he might just add your suggestion to his playlist.

Don't forget to bounce over to Pocket After Dark and give five stars to J's latest blog, which includes the fantastic short story "For Want of Chocolate".

I love Talbot, he is a bada**. I really like Tabitha also, I think she is a good character in the book and really loves Eric. I really want to see more Talbot. I think his character is very intersting. Love the books and I have been recommending them to my friends, it is hard to explain to them why I like Eric so much when he can be such a jerk. The books are awesome, something different and refreshing.

Eric runs the show and he's the boss and the Bamf. So, Eric is my favorite character... even if he was a side character he would be my favorite. A theme song is hard. I'd probably say some sort of rock song for when he kicks ass. I'd say... Korn's "Right Now" It's dark and hard core enough for his big batty monster self and would make sweet background music for all the ass kicking.

I like Greta. She cracks me up. For her, hmmm, "Short Skirt/Long Jacket" by Cake.

And I have to say for Stang the mustang - "Bad to the Bone" by George Thorogood.

Talbot is my favorite. I like that he such a bada** and he knows it. I think the theme song would have to be something from AC/DC like Thunderstuck. I am not good with themesongs though, but I think AC/DC rocks!
