So once upon a time there was an awesome collection of urban fantasy stories and novellas and novels, called the Borderlands series. I fell in love with them when I was in high school, and I still go back and reread them on a semi-regular basis. The last one was written years and years ago.
Except it turns out that there's a new anthology coming out this summer. And one of my favorite writers, whom I discovered through said series, was holding a contest to give away an advance reading copy of the new book. All you had to do to enter was write an idea, or a scene, of how you would run away to Bordertown.
She just announced the winner today.

.......
okay. Maybe y'all are right, and I might have a knack for this words-thing.
I'd say more, but I'm too busy feeling rather like someone hit me in the back of the head with a two-by-four. In a good way, but still. Poleaxed.
Wow.
Edited to add - If you want to read my entry, she links to the contest in the above page; mine is on page 4 of the comments. I think it's #90.....
