    Number three for me. The bow looks like one from my son's christening outfit. Really?

      Hi Stephanie. Christening outfits look much prettier on babies!

    I agree with Suzanne! Number one is BAD! The top looks like office wear and the bottom looks like my four year old has hacked it up with blunt scissors! I'm saying nothing about the headwear!

    I have a favourite of the three uglies but I'm not saying!

    Number one is the worst, I think. Mind you, they're all pretty awful. Then again, looking back to my first wedding dress... *hangs head in shame*

    No 1. Toilet tissue titfer. School shirt. Net curtain skirt. Bowling shoes. It'll never catch on.

    No. 2 is like a large Mexican hat.

    No. 3 - Sun's up, Vampyra, go back to your grave!

      You nailed them on right on the head. No. 2 has some kind of weird shoes/boots going on with the Mexican hat. Ole!

    OK, No 1 is more 'no sex please, I'm busy' than 'take me. I'm yours'. No 2, on the other hand... Not sure the groom would know where to put his eyes, or the guests for that matter. ;) In short, start again, Robyn... please!

  10. Emma CalinJuly 3, 2012 at 7:00 AM

    We vote for the worst.. Yes?

    Number 1 is 'Numero Uno' for me: looks like she came from the office and put on her best pinny and borrowed the headdress from the Andrex Puppies.

    Number 3 looks soooo frumpy... close run thing.

    But Number 2 well - there is a hint of Can-Can dancer and I do like a bit of Ooh-Là-Là.

    I'd have to say #1. Although the others are still ugly in their own special way, #1 is the WORST out of all of them.

  13. Laura Hughes, MittensMorgulJuly 3, 2012 at 8:40 AM

    If someone told me I had to pick one of these to wear, number two would be last on the list. It's the one I'd be least likely to show up in public wearing. That being said, I can get behind number one actually being ugliest. The only reason I pick 2 is because it has a higher personal cringe factor for me. How do you sit down in it without being arrested for indecent exposure? Kinda awful.

      I would never be as bold to wear something that revealing in public, either, Laura! Or stupid enough to want to wear it.

    Okay. I have to put my vote in right here. I can't help it! If I were judging, I would have to pick #1. But truly, they all are just down right comical.

Operation Agent Ink

UPDATE: PLEASE FILL OUT THIS QUESTIONNAIRE AFTER YOU SIGN UP. Have you ever wondered what agents were dying to find in their inbox/slush pile? There have been many times I entered a contest and not even received a comment, not even from one of the agents. Or maybe the agent was kind enough to leave a comment that simply said, "Sorry, this just isn't what I'm looking for, but I love the premise and your voice." I always walk away feeling unsatisfied. If I had known exactly what the agent wanted beyond, "YA" or "Fantasy" I might not have even entered a contest I knew I wouldn't win! Even more, I wasted a very busy agents time! Well, your time of guessing is up! OPERATION AGENT INK to the rescue! That's right! This workshop will help aspiring authors get on the list of an agent's WISH LIST! When the workshop is over, your manuscript will be ready to view by a group of AMAZING agents who are dying to see what you've wri...

Writer In Motion CP feedback

Hey beautiful guys and dolls! Here it is! My CP feedback edited story. Had a hard time with this, but I hope it makes sense. I've got a post I'm working on I plan to put up after Thanksgiving. Here ya go. Enjoy... Every morning I wake to carnival day.  Today, though, I have my key. If I don’t use it before midnight, my way of escape will gone. It’s a silver key with a twisted metal handle, a sapphire stone half moon and engraved stars. There’s a tiny inscription on the moon, but it’s so small, I’ve never been able to read it.I’ve always kept mine in my jewelry box, but today, I string it on a ribbon and tie it around my neck. My two best friends will be wearing theirs, too, and I wonder how they will escape this carnival of dreams. “What’s it for?” Cress asks as we stand in line for the swings. I run my fingertips over the entire silver surface. “I don’t know. It belonged to my grandmother,” I say. “Whatever.” She shrugs her shoulder in a dismissive way. “Have ...

Workshop 10

Today, let's get readers hooked from the very first sentence. If you do, you are off to a great start and hopefully a great first chapter. We are going to focus on the first and second sentence and how you can draw readers in while introducing two major items about your book: 1. Your MC 2. The main conflict. How? Is it really possible to do this in only TWO sentences? YES! Example: My name is Snow, like the white powder that falls during winter, though I don't know what my mom was thinking because it was ninety degrees the day I was born. I turned twelve the year I married a man I hated and thirteen when my first baby was born. This sentence tells us a lot. It shows us a little about Snow's personality, it hints toward a shortened childhood and could possibly point to a different time era. I also can definitely see the conflict. Can you? You only have a few minutes to make a good, first impression. Make sure you wow your reader enough they'll actually t...
