Our Havok Season 12: Multiversal contest is unfolding in fascinating ways! Each month, authors submit stories based on a character profile. Each month, our Editor in Chief, Andrew Winch, confers with our editorial teams and picks a winner for each genre we publish: Mystery Monday, Techno Tuesday (sci-fi), Wacky Wednesday, Thriller Thursday, and Fantasy Friday.
ONE of these five winners gets the bonus achievement of being the “Maker’s Favorite” — selected by the creator of the character profile!
February’s Featured Character: Kytt Windthorn
We invited award-winning author Nadine Brandes to create an original character for this contest, and boy, did she come through! Our authors had a grand time bringing Kytt Windthorn to life. But first, a bit about Kytt’s creator.
Nadine is the Carol-Award winning author of WISHTRESS, FAWKES, ROMANOV, and the Out of Time Series. Her newest release is THE NIGHTMARE VIRUS and her inner fangirl perks up at the mention of soul-talk, Quidditch, bookstagram, and Oreos. When she’s not busy writing novels about bold living, she’s adventuring through Middle Earth or taste-testing a new chai. Nadine, her Auror husband, and their Halfling children are building a Tiny House on wheels. Current mission: paint the world in shalom.
