The TINY AGENT CONTEST(S)

Behold the cuteness!

This is actually TWO CONTESTS IN ONE.  Please follow the instructions below:

1. NAME THE TINY AGENT

There are 12 photos of tiny agents (ages 5 and under).  Beneath each photo, PLACE YOUR GUESS from the list of names below.

EACH AGENT will be giving away A PRIZE.  The winner for each prize will be DRAWN AT RANDOM from all who voted under that agent's photo.

So.  Vote 12 times, and you're entered in 12 giveaways.  It's that simple!

What are the prizes?  Well, I'll give specifics tomorrow (because some prizes would give away the identity of the tiny agent), but they include ARCs, books, crits, and a Skype chat!

LIST OF AGENT NAMES:

Amy Boggs
Hannah Bowman
Laura Bradford
Sarah Davies
David Dunton
Josh Getzler
Jennifer Laughran
Tricia Lawrence
Lauren MacLeod
Steven Malk
Cameron McClure
Ammi-Joan Paquette
Chris Richman
Tamar Rydzinski
Brooks Sherman
Kate Testerman
Pam van Hylckama Vlieg
Tina Wexler
Caryn Wiseman
Michelle Wolfson

(Yes. There are more names than pictures. I did that on purpose.)

You don't have to guess correctly to be included in the drawing to win.  So knock yourself out!

2. VOTE FOR THE CUTEST AGENT

This part of the contest will be held VIA EMAIL ONLY.  Vote for the CUTEST AGENT by sending an email to facelesswords(at)gmail.com with THE NUMBER OF THE ENTRY IN THE SUBJECT LINE.

That's it.  Just the number (1 through 12).  No content, nothing else in the subject line.  This will make it MUCH easier for me to count the votes.

The CUTEST AGENT wins an exclusive interview on MSFV, complete with a QUESTION AND ANSWER TIME in the comment box!  So get your votes--and your questions--ready.

Voting will close at the end of the day on Wednesday.

Questions below!  And...please be kind.  Because, yanno.  It's sort of I-feel-naked when your baby picture is on display for hundreds of strangers, yes?

ETA:  Those of you who are reading this in your email: DO NOT send votes to the authoressmail mail account (that's where your emails come from).  I will not be counting votes on that email.  All votes for cutest agent must be sent to my facelesswords account.

Have fun!

    In the title of each blog post. They are named "Tiny Agent #1", "Tiny Agent #2," etc. You just need the number to vote with.

    Problem is, I have only the vaguest idea what these agents look like now that they're big girls and boys. So it's going to be a total shot in the dark.

    Many of them have current pictures of themselves as their Twitter avatars. :)

    LOL. This is so much fun. Though I feel like a total creep looking through agents twitter accounts and trying to tell if that's thier natural hair color, and inspecting thier eyes/ face. :P

    That was a blast! I feel like an internet stalker. Although by the end I was convinced they were ALL Jennifer Laughran who is the only one I've seen in real life.

    After spending WAY too much time looking up current photos of the agents, I still probably got most of them wrong. *sigh* What a blast though. Thanks for the contest. And thank you to the agents who offered up their cute pics! They're all adorable and it was hard to choose the cutest.
