Winner of the "Name Your Pet Clovort" contest

My pet clovort's name is Squirreljaw. I call him that because he can fit twenty squirrels in his— Um, I mean because he's cute.
When the "Name Your Pet Clovort" contest ended last night, Squirreljaw was hungry. He's always hungry. He laughed at all eight entries: Minnie, Kitty, Tinnell, Wilbur, Sylvester, George, Beklin, and Dimeadip.
I let Squirreljaw pick the winner.
I collected eight squirrels from the traps in my backyard, one for each entry. There were actually fifteen (to cover any late...

Interview with Liz Borino

I interviewed Liz Borino for a variety of reasons:  a) Her blog is unique. She posts each entry from the POV of a fictional character. I like that. b) She's a talented writer. c) She actually bought (and read) my novel, Rogue's Curse. And I always take care of my readers.
So here is Liz Borino…

The "Name Your Pet Clovort" Contest

Peaches Rogue's Curse is available for download at Lyrical Press  and Amazon.com , but I'm itching to email one shiny copy to someone. This is my first contest, so I'll make it simple. And no, I'm not giving away a pet clovort. That would be illegal. Clovorts are nasty monsters with a taste for human flesh. They'll eat anyone—and I mean ANYONE—which makes them efficient disposals of homicidal evidence. So yes, they come in handy. But no, you can't have mine.
What does a clovort look like? Well...

The Terrifying Clovort

Clovort
This is my six-year old daughter's drawing of a clovort (the monsters from my novel Rogue's Curse). 
Scary, ain't he?
