It's a Contest!




***THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. THE WINNER IS TASHA RIORDIAN, WHO SUGGESTED THE NAME ALEXANDER.***

I'm having a contest revolving around Coast, the short story I have planned. 

I need your help. I'm searching for a name. A character's name. I need the name of a six year old boy. The blurb for the story is below, in case it inspires you.



Coast  Have you ever coasted along because the cost of leaving would be too high? Stayed because you don't want to start over again, or risk damaging the fragile heart of a child? Stayed even though you knew you should go; even though you knew something better was waiting on the other side of the door? Sandra has. Sandra stayed, not wanting to risk everything she held dear to her heart. Until the day came when she just couldn't find the strength to coast along any longer. This is Sandra, and this is her story. (Coming Soon)













Entering the contest is easy. Simply comment with the name you've chosen and your email address. (If you don't feel comfortable sharing your email address in the comment, feel free to email me at beth@authorbethhale.com and let me know you've entered the contest.)

The contest will run until February 10, 2016. The winner will be announced on February 15. 

What will the winner get? His or her name mentioned in the thank you section of the story, with credit given for the chosen name and a $5.00 Amazon gift card.

Go ahead. Start sending me some names.
