Okay, I wasn't too sure where to put this, so I just put it here since I need to ask a question.
Right, now to the real subject; I'm writing a book called 'The Lunar Children' that basically is about my wolf character....but there need to be more wolves in it........so I was wondering if three people could let me use their charatcers as also one of the main characters in the book(s). Here's a sample from the book:

"But," Luntione stammered, "it didn't seem like it was going to hurt me."
"That's the idea!" Rimkia whispered even more angrily at her, "That's what they want you to think, but they will hurt you! Actually, it won't hurt you, it'll kill you! With one hit! Ugh I can't beleive you guys can't remember the story mom told us!" Rimkia was getting dfrustrated with his ignorant siblings and looked like he was about to attack them byt he tone of his voice, but Tumak made the pup think twice.
"Shh!" he snapped at Rimkia and Lunitone, "It's coming!" All three of them crouched down low, their bellies touching the ground. Lunitone squinted her eyes, trying to see through the little opening at the bottom of the bush where the light from the sun leaked through. She stared at the spot for a long time until she heard heavy footsteps coming toward them. In fear, she held her breath and kept completly still, afraid it would smell or hear the tiniest thing. The light from the opening disappeared as a leather figure blocked the rays from the bush. The leather object stayed there for a long time, until it turned around and lumbered back from where it came from. Unsure if it were a trick or not, the pups stayed in the bush until the sun started to set. Rimkia and Tumak were the ones to creep out of the bush cautiously and go towards the rock pile while Lunitone stayed in the bush, breathing slowly and still staring at the spot the leather thing appeared.
"Lun?" Tumak poked his head back into the bush for his sister. She didn't answer. "Me and Rimkia are going back to the den, you coming?" no reply came from his sister, "Okay, come back to the den in the morning 'kay?" the pup still didn't answer her brother's words. He shrugged and pulled his head out of the bush and ran back up the rock pile to the den. Lunitone's heart was pounding faster than ever with fear. When she smelled the leather she remembered the story her mother told her of the two-legged demons Rimkia was talking about. She remembered dreams of them finding and killing her and her family with their boom sticks and hunting pets, searching for her, always searching to kill her.
She whimpered herself to sleep and a dream of her mother telling the story of the demons enveloped her mind and thoughts.




If you want to enter your character in the book(s), then, I know this is the most common thing but it's unfair just to pick the first three people, draw a book cover (just the front) for the book. The one's who win 1st 2nd and 3rd place will be in the book(s). The deadline will be July 8, 2006. Thanks. (by the way, if you want to, you may add your character into the book cover too!)


The Other Main Characters:

(My character, drawing of her can be found in my art gallery, Ramoth) Lunitone- A She-wolf who lost her family at eight weeks old and was taken in by an old wolf named Reynald. She is a tan wolf with a brown splotch on her chest. Her left eye is grey and blind with two scars and her right eye is red and yellow. She has two scars on her muzzle and two scars on each cheek that both go horizontal and vertical.

Reynald- A ten year old wolf who took Lunitone in when her family was killed by wolverines. His fur is completly gray and his right eye has a long scar over it, closing his eye shut. His other eye is green. This guy is a veteran at fighting and has become a rogu wolf and trains Lunitone how to live on her own.

Rimkia- One of Lunitone's brothers. A tan wolf with a brown tipped tail, his name means 'trickster.' His right eye is a blueish redish color and the other is a normal wolf eye, completly yellow except for the pupil. Wolverines killed him.

Tumak- The last of Lunitone's brothers. He's a brown wolf with tan tipped ears. Eyes are brown and his name means 'sniffer.' Also killed by wolverines.

Tilania- Lunitone's mother. A pretty tan wolf with blueish redish eyes. Was killed by the wolverines.

Jukula- Lunitone's father. A brown wolf with yellow eyes. He was shot by a hunter before the others in his family were killed, other than Lunitone.

Radikin- Two years older than Lunitone, this wolf is all about brute force to kill his enemies human or not. He is a brown and pale wolf with a left blue eye and right brown eye. He is the leader of the pack Lunitone meets with, and he is one of the few survivors of the old pack.


There's the character list, and this is going to end up to be a series, so if your character doesn't show up in the first one, it'll show up in the second one. Oh, and you only need to make a book cover for the FIRST book. Good Luck to evryone!

Hm.. I might have to give this a try. I can't promise anything, but I'll try.

Here's a picture of Lunitone I drew. (if you need a reference) I'll try to draw the other characters soon if you need a reference, or the basic way they look. Here it is: http://baltosource.timduru.org/affArt-l ... -st-0.html

will this be an actual book of a fanfic?

yes, this will become an actual book. But when it will be finished or published is still unkown. Right know, I'm currently writing chapter eight.

DEADLINE CHANGED!!! Deadline will be on the first of August. Sry for double posting!

im really busy right now so can i just submit the rough draft for the contest?

sure rayJ!

Okay, sorry for double posting again, but this is very important. I found out I'm not very good at writing a wolf's life with words, since I started to re-read what I had so far, and it sucked lol. So, I'm going to make this, The Lunar Children, a graphic novel. For those of you who don't know what a graphic novel is, it's basically comic book. The winner will have their cover entry be the one on the first comic book. Again, there will be three of these, so the first place winner gets their cover on the first comic then so on and so forth. So, since this is mainly about drawing, I'll make a topic of this on the fan-art area since this is about drawing now, and I will change the deadline to August 20th. Thank you for reading.

P.S.-Again, sorry for double posting XD and sorry for chaning it so soon, forgive me -_-.
