Memorial Day contest from Cathy West

Cathy West, author of Yesterday's Tomorrow, a wonderful debut novel from OakTara set during the Vietnam War, is sponsoring a contest of sorts - she wants to hear your stories about the war era. A reader poll will choose the most touching and the winner will receive an autographed copy of her book. Please visit her web site for more information.

The skinny from Cathy:

I would love to hear your stories - do you have a soldier in your family? Are you a Veteran or do you know one? Have you been affected by war in any way? If you can't say yes to those questions, write a short story that honors veterans. Fiction or poetry, whatever you like.

Send me your stories (do try to keep them short, we're not after the Pulitzer) and photographs too! I will publish them all on my blog and we'll vote for the winner. So if you want your story to win, you'll need to send people here to vote!!

The winner will receive an autographed copy of Yesterday's Tomorrow, and something special from Bermuda!

Can't wait to hear from you!
