You have to keep looking for the right ones until you find the ones that fit with you.<br /><br />That's what I'm doing. I'm looking for contests that offer more diversity.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05794985304159234668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1969558921964931828.post-87128669323095474652010-02-18T19:17:54.616-06:002010-02-18T19:17:54.616-06:00Molly, I guess that's why we have to stretch o...Molly, I guess that's why we have to stretch ourselves, and pick up something off of a shelf that may be a little different. You and I know that AA characters can look, and sound like anything, but that judge only had one idea in mind, and my story didn't fit with her perception.<br /><br />Maybe, one day, she'll pick up a copy of one of my books or someone else's, and her whole world will change ;-)Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05794985304159234668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1969558921964931828.post-2758232411970303252010-02-18T14:26:55.949-06:002010-02-18T14:26:55.949-06:00Thanks.

Jeez...<br /><br />I've read several African-American romances (Christian inspy) and only on occassion did any slang enter in, or stereotypical behavior.Molly Danielshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488325587798390008noreply@blogger.com
