2014 Cover Launch Party

The pieces are finally starting to fall into place, and the finish line is within site. World Domination Cat has nothing on me! Since I’m thrilled that The Year is Now is almost here, I decided to throw a contest with awesome prizes! The winners will be revealed when I release the cover!



“That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” - Neil Armstrong, 21 July 1969

I want you to create something based on that epic quote. The universe is the limit. If you knit, let those needles take off! Draw? Awesome; I want to see it! Can you sew? Make a wreath? A diorama? Dress your pet up? Make a meme? Do it!

Entries will be judged on effort and creativity

Prizes!

I'm giving out:

1 signed copy of The Year is Now!

 2 beanies or
2 (3in by 3in) mini paintings

3 personalized digital character cards. Put yourself in Elly's shoes!
