Hi all -

I did this character tournament for my facebook group The Awethors for our semi-annual party back in October. I would love to do another. I will have the sign up form available very, very soon but I first wanted to see if there was interest in this.

Basically the way it works is you will sign up a character from one of your published works. Every author will get to submit 1 Protagonist and 1 Antagonist. I will gather the information and create voting match-ups. then you can invite your readership and whomever to come vote. The tournament will take place over the 3 day convention.

Here's the one I did last time to give you an idea of what I can do:

Just comment that you are interested. If I get enough interest I will open the sign ups.

Cheers,

Joe Compton

Wow, Joe! I am so out of it today I only just now processed that this thread (which I have been following since you posted it) is the topic we discussed in our emails. LOL... Okay. I'm taking the rest of today off! :) See your tomorrow everyone!


message 13: by Lydia (new)

Lydia Sherrer | 18 comments Awesome! I've emailed in my submission. Out of curiosity, do you have any idea yet when exactly the contest will run? The reason I ask is because I provided my kickstarter link as the "buy" link bc that is currently where you can pre-order the book. But if the contest isn't running until late march or April, by that time I'll have it up on Amazon pre-order, so the buy link would be different. Let me know, thanks!

Okay! Well then when you send me your email reply confirming you got my submission, I'll reply to that as SOON as I get the books up on Amazon with the correct buy link. Is that alright?

******CHARACTER TOURNAMENT for BRAIN TO BOOKS CYBER CONVENTION 2016*****

This is the last weekend to enter your Protagonist or Antagonist into the competition. (Just FYI Antagonists right now is thin, the path to winning for a good villain is there.) It works just like March Madness. I did one in October.

http://brackify.com/b/136/antagonists...

So come one, come all...this is it after Sunday I will be done collecting and I am going with what I have.

If you want to enter your previous entry from October, just PM me and I will get you in there. If you are new, missed the one in October, and want to enter, go to my form here and fill it out:

https://pub5.bravenet.com/emailfwd/sh...

I take no more entries after Sunday March 27th. So get yours in tonight!
