Character Quiz: Jack Goodwin

This contest has closed. Thanks for playing and watch for the winner to be announced tomorrow morning.

WHAT AM I WINNER: (The image is a SEA URCHIN): Not as many entries because I think many found it just too hard to guess. Only 89 entries, and of those, 26 guessed correctly. Of those 26, Random.org chose #7, Lydia Lehman, as the winner. Congratulations, Lydia. But not to worry. This week you have a chance to win one of the brand-new books in this character quiz. Keep reading…

I’m embarrassed at how long it took me to post a new character quiz. But check out the PRIZE for the winner of this quiz: Your choice of either the new book 7, Other Tales from the Circle C Ranch or the BRAND-NEW book 8 (not even releasing until next month), More Tales from the Circle C Ranch. My author copies come this week, so you will win a new book nobody else can buy yet. When I announce the winner next Thursday, I hope to have a link to my Circle C webstore, where you can buy book 8 a whole month before it releases!

The entries with the most right answers will be combined into a random drawing. I wish I could send all of the winners a copy of the new book, but that is just not possible. I only have a limited number and need them for fun things like . . . giveaways (coming soon!)
