A Thank You, An Announcement and a $50 Prize Voucher

Hey all! I'm so seriously excited. Not only did I hit 1000 GFC follows, but I got the go ahead to make an announcement I've been dying to share.

Sadly, no official release date yet and no cover. Instead, I can announce that Doorways will be published under a better, more epic sounding name.

But as a show of my gratitude and because I'm just a tad evil, I decided I'm going to make you guys work for the title. I'm going to give you spaces, and you need to guess the letters. I'll fill in the correct letters one at a time. So if there's a repeat letter, I'm not slotting it in again before someone guesses the letter a second time. Only one guess per person and one letter per guess, please!

Once all the letters are filled in, I'll enter all the people who guessed (whether they guessed right or wrong) into a draw and the winner will get a $50 Amazon voucher.

Please please please spread the word! The more the merrier, right?

Okay. Here are the spaces: 

 The War of Six Crowns: The Vanished Knight

Get guessing!

 But before I go, I just want to say thank you. Your advice and support have meant so much to me. It has been an honor to get to know you.

    Replies
    1. Misha GerrickAugust 25, 2013 at 8:05 PM

      Yeah, but the decision to change it was actually mine. Reason was twofold: 1) The name no longer fit the story as perfectly as before and 2) It didn't suit the series title I picked and loved.

      And nope, all the A's are in.

    It was so nice to hear from you recently. I feel that your star is rising and I am happy for you.
    I was hoping to hear you sing, or did I miss it, I hope not. I know you are very busy with several things going on.
