…Amir Ghazi of World of Horror! Let’s hear it for Amir, whose pitch entitled The Nightmare gathered an amazing 527 votes!
Just to remind you again, this was Amir’s winning pitch:
The Nightmare by Amir.H.Ghazi
When fourteen-year-old Allen Foster is diagnosed with parasomnia, a sleep disorder evoking vivid nightmares, he begins journaling each haunting dream on the advice of his psychiatrist, keeping the notebook safely hidden in a floorboard β that is until a new family moves into the Maine house. When Rita, the daughter of the new owners, discovers the book and begins experiencing Allenβs old nightmares, she tracks him down in an effort to rid herself of the misery, only to find he has no memory of writing them.

Thank you again to all who have participated, either by submitting a pitch or by voting for your favourite. I will run another contest in August – if you’re interested, sign up for my Don’t Miss It list (see the banner on the right).
I now have the difficult task of reaching deep down, switching my brain from the usual jokey mode, to produce the creepiest and most striking cover this book so justly deserves.
Wish me luck!
Oooh how did I miss this?
Congrats to the winner! : D

Thank you Kathi – I will hold another one around August. This was a nice little exercise, hope it highlights the importance of not only writing a great blurb/book, but also marketing it like mad π
