And the winner of Lowcountry Bribe by Hope Clark is…
Ljohnsontravels12’s response was:
Spunk is the small flame that grows larger when I write. As a pilot light, it awaits the moment that I decide to write. Once the first word hits the page, the flame ignites and it begins as a simmer. After a few pages have found their way, does it turn to the “medium” that you turn up on the top of the stove to get things going. It isn’t until the story finds its drive that spunk takes control. This is the energy that will not release you until you have exhausted yourself. It is also that high flame that causes things to burn if you do not continue to toss, stir or move to the other edge of the skillet. It keeps you up past your bedtime because you have “just one more word” or “let me finish this sentence” and then you can collapse because you are exhausted but proud of what you have accomplished. It is the need to feel “spunk” that will uphold and protect your desire to write.
Congratulations, Ljohnsontravels12!
