Anita submitted her book idea entry to the MasterClass/James Patterson competition! Scary, nerve wracking and exciting all at the same time! The Yin and Yang of life. The submission entry number is 110930, so it seems unlikely to make the first cut of 10 for the next round… These documents were written for this step: Two-sentence hook (why would I, the reader, want to read this book); One-page book summary; Sample Chapter. Regardless, this has been a worthwhile exercise.

Here is The Revolts book hook:
From his birth and abandonment in a forest, Wei Hao faced daunting circumstances – especially since he was covered in fine fur due to a congenital birth defect. The eventual friendship of an unlikely female warrior aids their war against the Chinese empire, with the clashing of sword blades, hand-to-hand combat and sacrifice.

We also got notice today from the Tattered Cover Bookstore that our books arrived in their warehouse and were being processed to get on their shelves in a couple of days!
