Roryism Quote Writing Contest: And The Winner Is...

For this contest, we asked readers to submit their show-stopping statements written from the viewpoint of Rory Falcon, a very special character in the novel Wicked Good. Readers could enter as many times as they wished, and the length of the quote was of no matter. The contest was open from September 12 - November 30, 2011 to anyone who purchased a copy of Wicked Good and entered their "Roryism" via e-mail. So without further ado...

Congratulations to Darrell Lindsey for the winning statement: 

“Say what you will about stubbornness, but it invented the lightbulb.”

Darrell has won a $100 Prepaid Credit Card! In addition, Darrell’s winning quote will be published in Wicked Wise, book two in the Wicked series.

Here is a list of the top contending quotes in no particular order:

Of course, I believe in forgiveness. So feel free to apologize away! -- Darrell

If you want static, go to your dryer instead of me. -- Darrell

If you see a cloud that looks like an animal, hopefully it won't be a unicorn. -- Darrell
