Today it's the Page 70 Pitch contest. Take page 70 of your completed, polished ms, and see if it's got any voice. Tweet a seven-word desc of your MC and hope it has voice.
Hope the bonheure of the universe favours your entry being selected, and the lucky winners get their entries perused by agents who may make requests.
So my hat is in the ring, along with a secret code name I cannot reveal and the book I hope to reveal to the whole world.
Now that I've submitted my entry and tweeted my tweet, I am having serious doubts about my voice.
I will not give in to my whiny muse. I will finish my WIP before I attempt to fix OTD's voice. In fact, I might write another book, then have a look at OTD's voice.

*Summer... when Her Grace say "summer", she really means Cancerian summer, as experienced by the Northern Hemisphere (June, July, August). For Her Grace, who lives Down Under, Capricornian summer (Birak and Bunuru) happens in December, January, February.
So yeah. Right now it's cold and miserable in her part of Australia. And dark.
