Our contest having concluded, it is time now to select a winner for “High Heeled Sneakers.” In a departure of previous manners of judgment, this time ANYBODY can place a vote who read the entries.  No restrictions.  Even staff are eligible to win this one!  AND you get three votes.  Two can be for your favorite, and one for your second favorite.  The criteria is easy:  pick the one that left you with the best feeling, the one that lingered, and maybe left a few goosebumps.  I will tally the votes by Wednesday, announce the winner on Friday, Jan 11th, and send off the trophy before I depart for Prague.

We’re not in Kansas anymore

Also pleased to announce that after delays in getting our order the T-shirts from our previous contest have arrived.  If you were a participant in our contest “One-of-a-Kindness” make sure you have sent me your physical address and T-shirt size to thorn@awordwithyoupress.com asap so I can get them out to you before I leave for Prague and my fairy-tale princess who lives in Cesky Krumlov, my ultimate destination.

Thornton Sully

Thorn founded A Word with You Press in 2009, having Jack-Londoned his way across the globe sleeping with whatever country would have him, picking up stray stories along with way. A litter of dog-eared passports that have taken up residence in his sock drawer are a constant temptation, but, having at last discovered paradise, it’s not likely he will stray too far from his adopted city of Prague. He has helped hundreds of writers reach their potential, including best-selling authors and award winners. He is the author of Fire in the Belly: How to write your novel with Purpose and Passion, Almost Avalon, The Boy with a Torn Hat and The Courtesans of God saga, and multiple anthologies.

    This contest was a delight to enter and a bigger one to read!! I want to thank the staff that have been on-board, who have really pitched in with the production end of the site. I have noticed a sweet change of comments being posted, which, in my opinion got a little out of hand on the last contest!! I am a big fan of our Editior-In-Chief, Mr Sully, and I am delighted to see his vision to strengthen and encourage us writers being manifested….
    Happy Trails to all, from Jerusalem.
