PHOTO DESCRIPTION:
The photo is of a hot nerdy guy. There’s really nothing more to it than that.
STORY LETTER:
Dear Author,
Do you laugh when you read a blurb about another book with an obscure animal shifter? Do you ever want to write a shifter story of your own but tire of those wolves and big cats and dragons? Well, here is your chance to write a character that changes into an animal your readers will be rushing to Google!
This man changes into one of these amazing creatures (your choice). Is he a timid African bongo, with graceful vertical horns? Is he a waddling capybara, who make some people giggle with mirth and others jump onto their dining room chairs at the sight of him?
Is he a civet, captured in an underground perfume trade? Is he a jerboa, with a tail longer than Princess Diana’s wedding train? Or a kinkajou, nicknamed Pooh-Bear for his love of honey?
Is he an okapi, who looks like he can’t decide what animal he is?
The story, barring a few specifications, is entirely up to you!
Story MUST:
-not take itself seriously (obviously!). Bonus points for humor!
-make this character nerdy/geeky/uncoordinated/whatever, as long as he’s uncool. And not poser uncool like a hipster… unless unbeknownst to him he’s cool because he’s so uncool, like a real hipster… nevermind. He’s an outsider among his kind, for whatever reason.
-not be bittersweet. HFN is fine.
-and no girl parts please!
Sincerely,
Kyle Adams
