queensthiefYOU have something I want. And maybe, just maybe I have something you want, as well.
I want to see Eddis, Attolia, and Sounis united under one standard to fight back the vile Mede. I actually want to see the standard...you know...the flag, the symbol that would represent a unified Eddis/Attolia/Sounis. I tried to make one myself, with the triangle symbolizing the three countries, the symbol for interdependence emblazoned in the background, the names of each nation in a never-ending circle. The outcome was just a cheesy blinking icon, dang-it.
But I've seen your wicked-awesome artistic skills, Sounisians, and I think you're holding out on me. So how's about I offer an incentive for your creative labors. If you can offer me a unified Eddis/Attolia/Sounis symbol, flag, crest, seal, etc, then I can offer you.......
A copy of Each work published my MWT (to my knowledge) to date. That's right. I'm offering used but SIGNED copies of The Thief, The Queen of Attolia, and the King of Attolia in paperback, a copy of Conspiracy of Kings (not signed), paperback version of Firebirds containing the short story "Baby in the Night Deposit Box", paperback Instead of Three Wishes, and a copy of August 2000 Disney Adventures Magazine containing the "Thief" short story. All packaged lovingly and delivered to your doorstep.
So go. Make something beautiful. And profound. And shiny. I await your awe-inspiring submissions.
Post entry or intention to submit by March 20th. Because I may not have the heart to pick one lovely winner over another I reserve the right to choose a winner by random selection or to double prize packages to award to multiple winners. Void where prohibited.
