The winner is????




Here at TFTR, we like to shake things up a little.

So, I did the high tech work of writing each entrant's name on a piece of 3x5 index card, folded it perfectly and put it in a hat.
But not just ANY hat.
My straw cowboy hat I bought last summer at the Indian Trading Post in Oklahoma. 

It is being worn by my handsome assistant, Zachary. Who is also modeling our unfinished steps.






"Can I wear the hat?"

"Sure."


He's shy, JUST like his mother. And he needs a bath.








"Now what do I do?"

"Shake up all the pieces and make sure you touch each one a few times."




Which he DID, but I accidentally deleted that photo.






"Now what?"
"Pick one!"
"Okay!!!"



                               



"Hold it up to the camera."














The winner of Lori Benton's debut novel, Burning Sky is 
Patti Iverson!
Congratulations, Patti!


I will email you and get your deets, and Lori will mail the copy to you.


Sadly, it will NOT be personally delivered by Neil or Tames His Horse.   


Which I think is just wrong...

    1. Yes, lucky girl! If I didn't already have a copy, there *might* have been one or two hundred pieces of paper with "Jennifer" written on them.
