Hello everyone,

Kody here, wanting to announce the arrival of my first contest. Sponsored in part by my publisher Lame Goat Press, we are looking for someone to do the full wraparound cover for my upcoming short story collection, An Amorous Thing . Centered around the theme of affection and how, despite the meaning, it can lead to horrible things, my collection will feature at least twelve tales with the theme of affection. From slit-mouthed beauties to the horrible reality of discrimination, An Amorous Thing will be released sometime in 2010 by Lame Goat Press.

What's the prize?

Currently, only $25 and a contributor's copy, provided by the publisher himself. But fear not--I personally plan to supply a few more prizes, from books, to CDs, to movies, and anything else I can get my hands on. I'll be sure to update everyone on the progress of the contest and what prizes will be added to the pool.

So, without further ado, here is the link to the post my publisher made on his blog: [link]

Once again, thank you all.

~ Kody
