Name That Book contest winner!

We have a winner! You all sent in some great (and I do mean GREAT) entries. In fact, with the next book, we'll be doing this again, and I'll hold on to everyone's email who entered this time.

The winner is Jo Stapley with Con & Conjure. I think it describes perfectly what I have planned for Book 5, plus it has that playful humor I know my editor will be looking for.

Congratulations, Jo! Your name will appear on the Acknowledgements page of Con & Conjure.

Have a great weekend everyone! (And remember, keep those writing questions coming. I'll be answering the ones you've sent in next week.)

Lisa

BTW -- I'll have another contest coming up soon with some new prizes that I just got in the mail yesterday -- they're great!

"Con & Conjure" - I like it. I hope that means there's going to be a good con in that book.

Most definitely plenty of cons. The Benares family fights back in their favorite way. Phaelan's older brother Mago is in this book -- a banker and con man extraordinaire.

Awesome title! Congrats Jo! I have enough trouble with titles of my own WIPs that my mind just refused to cooperate for this contest. :)

Yep, Phaelan has an older brother. You all are gonna love him -- dry wit, shrewd and suave. ; )

Jo that's awesome! Whoohoo!

Lisa - Phaelan has a brother? Will I like him more than Phaelan????

Hmmm, don't know. His personality will develop as I write him. I've already written part of Chapter 1 and he's showing himself to be a strong character (aka he tells me exactly who he is and what he wants to do).

That does sound like a good book. {Smile}

I hope you have as much fun writing it as I'm sure we'll have fun reading it. {REALLY BIG GRIN}

Yay!

Yesterday I saw all your books in the bookstore. I had to resist jumping up and down and yelling 'Buy her books! I know her!' I did tell my friend though :) Unfortunately she's broke so couldn't buy them.

Good times.

I was drawing a blank so I didn't enter the contest. But Con and Conjure is an awesome title, and it fits perfectly!

I love the sound of this book already! Phaelen has an older brother? That's just awesome! The Benares family just keeps getting better! But, you know, I can wait for this one... just not Bewitched and Betrayed ;)
