Indie e-Con Game - The Shipping Game!

So, here's the deal, I'm going to be posting a game each morning. You guys are going to email me with your guesses each day, and when we get done, the person who has the most right answers will win three random ebooks, a random bookmark, and a mini dragon donated by H.L. Burke.

Today? Well, in honor of us talking about romance, I've gone through and found ten couples from our line-up of books, and gave each couple a shipping name ... which basically means I crushed their names together and awesomeness insued.

Some are harder than others.

Now edited with answers. How many did you get correct?

1. Kyannie
Kyle+Vannie of Morgan Elizabeth Huneke's Espionage
2. Izzython
Izzy+Jonathon of Tammy Lash's White Wolf and the Ash Princess
3. Merian
Valarian+Mercy of Katy Huth Jones' Mercy's Prince
4. Elivett 
Ellen+Everett of Kelsey Bryant's Suit and Suitability
(Sorry about being confusing on this one. It was late and I got mixed around on names)
5. ScholarXDragon
Shannon+Ewan of H.L.Burke's Dragon and the Scholar
6. Rafeah
Leah+Raphael of Laurie Lucking's Common
7. Reutra
Reuben+Petra of Kendra E. Ardnek's Lady Dragon, Tela Du
8. Kamaeyn
Kamarie+Oraeyn of Jenelle Leanne Schmidt's King's Warrior
9. Corbet
Corwin+Lilybet of Savannah Jezowski's Wither (Five Enchanted Roses)
10. Jalella
Jalen+Estrella of Emily Mundell's Sorceress and the Squid

So, there we go, ten points up for grab (and half-points if anyone finds a substitute couple that works just as well ;)

Make sure you EMAIL ME your guesses, though, at Kendraeardnek(at)gmail(dot)com. In the comments below, tell me YOUR favorite couple in indie fiction.

    Fun game! I'd have to say my favorite indie couple is Nyssa and Ellis from H. L. Burke's Nyssa Glass series (Nyssell??)

    Oh, also - will you be doing a post each day for us to report our word counts like you did last year? Or should we just keep count and then tell you our weekly score instead of day-by-day?

Introducing: The Arista Challenge

Well hello, everyone! I imagine that most of you know about the Rooglewood Fairy Tale contests, where everyone scrambles to rewrite the same fairy tale in hopes that their story will one of the five selected for the coveted collection Five Something Something.  I wrote for three of the four collections, CinderEddy for Five Glass Slippers , Poison Kiss for Five Magic Spindles, and The Seven Drawers and Red as Snow for Five Poison Apples.  Unfortunately, The Seven Drawers  was the only story that I was able to finish in time to send it in (And I'm now waiting with bated breath to find out whether or not I won.) Unfortunately, Poison Apples was their last contest. So, we were talking in the Facebook Group about how sad we'd be to lose the community. And I had a thought. I can't offer a contest, but I can continue the challenge. The picking of a fairy tale and the writing together with fury. I can't offer a single collection with cash prizes, but I can offer a joi

Handling the Physical with Tammy Lash

How far is too far? Kissing? Handholding? How do you handle the physical part of writing your romances? (I mean, it has to be addressed unless your romance is confined 100% to letter writing). I have Tammy Lash here with us today to talk about just that. Tammy's the author of a lovely romance novel called White Wolf and the Ash Princess , a book that was completely not what I explected and reduced me to a sobbing mess of tears. (Internally, at least.) Over to you, Tammy!

Accurate Dialogue with Kelsey Bryant

Image
I have Kelsey Bryant here with us today to tackle a controversial subject indeed - historically accurate dialogue. We don't live back then, so how can we possibly even come close to sounding like we do? But, then, our readers don't live back then, either, and we might confuse them... Kelsey is the author of the lovely Suit and Suitablity , a Depression-era retelling of Sense and Sensabilty which is my newest favorite book. Seriously, I can't recommend this story highly enough. Kelsey Bryant Christian/Contemporary/Historical Fiction/Retellings Author of Suit and Suitability Website ~ Blog ~ Amazon ~ Goodreads ~ Facebook Copyediting Historically accurate dialogue is one of those controversial topics that only historical fiction lovers debate. We know that dialogue is crucial—it brings the world of a book to life, and if it isn’t done right, readers can never fully immerse themselves in that world. So how is historical fiction dialogue done right? Well, her
