Do You Have A Catch Phrase?

Happy Friday All!

I am throwing this out to my blog followers first. As book two wraps up and heads to editing, my thoughts turn to one thing--book three!

There is a new character in the works, who will be introduced in part three of the trilogy, and when I say character, I mean it! I don't want to give too much away, but this is the type of character who needs something pithy to shout out at various times, so I am looking for a comical, profound, or just plain random phrase.

If you have a favorite saying, or something you, yourself love to just blurt out from time to time, let me know. I'll be holding a drawing on or around May 1, where I'll draw one of the submitted sayings out of a hat (or possibly a fishbowl... or an oversized, yet sensible, black pump...that's still to be determined). This phrase will be used at least once (but probably more) in book three (tentatively entitled, "Daughter of Darian"). If your phrase is chosen, you will, of course receive one signed copy of each of the Lor Mandela books, not to mention, be immortalized in "brag to your friends and family" print!

Entries can be emailed to either lormandela@yahoo.com or destructionfromtwins@yahoo.com and must be received no later than 11:59 p.m. MST on April 30, 2011. Simply email your phrase with your name. No vulgar or obscene phrases, please!

Thanks and good luck!!!

Book #1 Lor Mandela - Destruction from Twins

Through the selfish acts of twin enchantress, the world of Lor Mandela is sentenced to its untimely death. Only one can save it--the appointed Child of Balance, Audril Borloc. All hope seems lost, however, when shortly after her fourth birthday, Audril disappears without a trace. Audril Borloc must be found! When a group of Lor Mandelan spies travel to Earth in search of the little girl with black hair and bright blue eyes--traits that on Lor Mandela are exclusive to the ruling Borloc family--they instead find sixteen-year-old Maggie Baker. While the age difference between the girls is obvious, Maggie has the Borloc traits--evidence enough for the desperate spies. Suddenly, Maggie's mundane existence is transformed into a thrill ride of twists and turns as she begins bouncing back and forth between her hometown of Glenhill, Iowa, and the strange and diverse lands of Lor Mandela. Amid battling a ferocious two-headed beast, being abducted by a lawless clan of Shadow Dwellers, and falling head-over-heels for the son of an evil warlord, Maggie soon discovers that her blase reality could be the REAL fantasy, and that the fate of Lor Mandela may depend entirely on her.

Book # 2, "Lor Mandela - Four Hundred Days", Now AVAILABLE!

When Audril, the heiress to the Lor Mandelan throne, sneaks away to Earth to save one of her dearest friends, she finds that a power hungry tyrant from her own world has begun systematically obliterating towns and cities to get her to turn herself over to him. On Earth, she meets a wildly eccentric old lady named Teedee Venilworth whose imaginary butler/fiancé supposedly holds the key to her success. But how can someone help if he doesn't exist? Could it be that creatures who dwell in shadow are not exclusive to Lor Mandela? Book number two in the Lor Mandela Series, Lor Mandela – Four Hundred Days, is an action-packed whirlwind of intrigue and fantasy. Join the extraordinary characters from the first book, (both the good and the evil), as they traverse the haunted corridors of Alcatraz Penitentiary, travel via portal to an ancient castle on the cliff shores of Ireland, and meet a foreboding race of mystic warriors known as the Solom. Soar on the back of a large horse-like creature to the Northern High Forests and discover that on the picturesque world of Lor Mandela, your friends can become foes, your enemies your allies, and just because someone dies, it doesn’t always mean that they’re dead.
