Get your name in one of my novels!
I NEED YOUR HELP...and I'm offering something in return. I have a nameless, abandoned baby boy in an upcoming novel. (This book is still in the planning stages, so it'll be a while before it's actually in print - just a heads up. Publishing can be a slow process. ) My heroine finds the infant, but since she has no idea what his name is, she and the hero fall into the habit of calling him "the little guy" - which soon turns into Little Guy. I like the way that works...on the surface. Problem is, Guy just doesn't seem plausible as a name for a baby in today's world. So...yep, I need a name for my "little guy."
If I use your suggestion, I will use YOUR FIRST NAME for a secondary character in that same novel, AND I will dedicate the novel to you. Sound like fun?
Here are the rules:
1. "LIKE" MY FACEBOOK AUTHOR PAGE . (If you've already liked it, that's OK, you've already taken care of Step 1.) Do let me know in your e-mail (Step 3) that you've "liked" my page, whether you do it now or had already done so.)
2. SHARE THIS POST on your Facebook timeline and tag me (@DeliaLatham) so I'll know you took Step #2. (Use the SHARE link at the top of this page or copy and paste this link: http://delialatham.blogspot.com/2013/08/want-novel-dedicated-to-youand.html.
If you'd rather TWEET about it, that's fine (you can do both, if you'd like!). Just tag me on your tweet
(@DeliaLatham). Here's a ready-made TWEET you can use:

3. SEND YOUR SUGGESTIONS for a name for the little guy to: DLathamWrites@yahoo.com . Please put "LITTLE GUY" in the subject field so I won't overlook your entry.
That's it. I'll take suggestions through August 31st, and if I receive a suggestion that blows me away, I'LL ANNOUNCE IT ON MY FACEBOOK AUTHOR PAGE, sometime during the first week of September - along with the winner's name. If I receive duplicate suggestions for the winning name, the winner will be first person who suggested that name.
Have fun naming the little guy - and be sure to spread the word!
(Note: All three of the steps above must be completed to be eligible for the drawing.)
