Breaking Daylight Finalled and Heroes
moar funny pictures
I came home from my Christmas party last night to find Breaking Daylight finalled in the Golden Palm! I have a week to revise, then send it back and it's going to Leslie Wainger. It's been a long dry spell between finals, y'all. This feels GOOD. Wow, and I just got the results for Don't Look Back...if they'd had 4 finalists instead of 3, it would have finalled, too!!
I should get to write today. I need to make a quick trip to the grocery store, and then the SARA party tonight, but in between, no obligations.
Okay, heroes....I was reading this book recently where the hero was just, well, horny all the time. All. The. Time. It went a bit beyond the level of being sexy and was actually a little creepy, especially since he'd wanted this girl since she was 17. (He was about 10 years older.)
When I read Shelter Mountain, I had trouble getting past the hero's bald-big-be-earringed appearance.
I read another book where the hero made unfortunate choices in footwear. Just. Not. Appealing.
And another where the hero was, shall we say, hirsute. I didn't mind that quite so much because I have a feeling my current hero is as well, but I wasn't going to go into that in the likelihood it would be a turnoff to someone.
What hero characteristics turn you off, either physical or not?
Look what Natalie found!

Fun Supernatural video! Particularly like No. 2. :)
Overbearing heroes always leave me cold. Other than that, I can't think of anything...
Wow, hirsute. I learned a new word today. :)
Congrats on the contest final!! Such a hopeful feeling...
Hope you're enjoying a Christmas break already!
Overbearing heroes definitely and i dont like them too hairy either. Otherwise, I can't think of much I don't like LOL
Congrats on the final and good luck!!!
Trish, I was wondering what number 2 was, then...ohhhhhh!!
Natalie, you wouldn't have liked that one story I was reading, then!
LOL, Sarah, I've been playing Gina's Freerice.com game. Plus I was listening to an audiobook and they used the word ;)
Thanks for the congratulations, Amie and Sarah!
