The Grand Prize Winner of the BEHIND CLOSED DOORS contest, which was judged by a few author and poet friends of mine, was Cindy Chow! Here is Cindy’s winning entry.

Okay, I’m in my thirties and I have a Barbie collection. I can cover it up by saying that they’re the collector’s editions, but face it, I just like playing with their shoes and the pretty outfits. It’s anti-feminist, probably distorting women’s body images, but I love Barbie.

I hide them when I have guests. It freaks out guys.

Congratulations, Cindy. Cindy will receive a jam-packed gift basket full of Utah goodies, bath treats, signed books, and other fun items.

Also, winners of the Author Buzz contest, who receive a free signed copy of Behind Closed Doors, are K. Gold, Laura Merrill, Laura Emerson, Clifton Kaiser, and Donna Leggate.

Congratulations to all the winners. For another chance to win, make sure and join my newsletter before February 15. The next contest will be for newsletter subscribers only.
