Write a Caption Game

Ann H GabhartAnn's Posts, One Writer's Journal 58 Comments

Oscar and snow1Are you ready for a new chance to win a book? One of mine along with a grab bag book by a different inspirational fiction writer. One winner each week until the end of March. Usual rules apply. You have to be 18 to play the game and any comment on a new post will get you entered. But let’s exercise our imaginations and have some fun with this contest.

What Would Oscar Say?

So what you need to do is look at Oscar in this picture and imagine him ready to say something. What would he say? Or pretend he’s starring in an ad for some product and add a tag line to the picture. Or imagine whatever you wish and write a line to go with the picture. It can be funny. It can be serious. It can be anything as long as you keep in mind that Oscar is a very good dog and only uses polite language even when I’m trimming his toenails. 🙂

First Winner picked Next Sunday

I’ll pick a winner next Sunday out of whoever comments on this post and/or on Wednesday’s post. I’ll hunt up a different photo for Wednesday night’s post. So think of something crazy or something sweet. Oscar won’t care. Right now he’s laying here behind me snoring away.

Meanwhile Back at the Farm

Scent of LilacsMy first Heart of Hollyhill book, Scent of Lilacs, is still on e-book sale for 99 cents. If any of you have read my book that introduces Jocie and family and friends to readers, it would be good to know what you thought of the story. So if you can’t think up any words to put in Oscar’s mouth, you can comment about Jocie. Here’s the Amazon Kindle  link if you’re interested in checking it out. Can’t get much for less than a dollar these days.

spring flower

And not only that, flowers are beginning to poke up through the ground and open blossoms to the sun. One week until Spring shows up on the calendar, but I’m okay with it sneaking in early. How about you?

Last but not least, I have plenty of bookmarks for my two Hidden Springs mysteries, Murder at the Courthouse and my upcoming release Murder Comes by Mail. I have some of my other titles too. If you’d like a few autographed bookmarks, send a self-addressed stamped #10 envelope to me at PO Box 414, Lawrenceburg, KY 40342, and I’ll be happy to put some in the mail to you.

As always, thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing what you have to say for Oscar. 🙂

      Oscar would definitely not want to go through that again, Pam. He tries to make himself scarce any time I pick up the hose.

      That’s a cute twist, Amy. I’m sure Oscar would be very curious were we to run across a groundhog. They used to be thick around our way, but a few bad winters back in the Seventies thinned them out to almost nonexistent. A few have made a return in the last several years.

      Now that one he might say, Karen, if we’re walking. If we’re going in the car, forget it. Oscar doesn’t like cars.

  1. Guess I need to stay away when they’re cutting down trees ! That sawdust flies every where ! Oh! Never mind, it’ll come off when I give it a good shake !

      Fun, Faye. A little different look at those flakes. And I do hope he’d shake those off before he wants inside. 🙂

  2. You told me Winter was over.

    The other answers I thought of (powdered sugar, dandruff) were already mentioned. 😱

      Good to be original, but duplicate answers would have been okay, Ann. Maybe my picture Wednesday will have more chance for different answers. Hmmm, what can I post?

  3. New shampoo claimed ‘will help with flakes’….thought that meant get rid of them, not multiply them…. Woof is me!
    How’s that for corny?

      I like it, Linda. I thought of dandruff right off when I posted the picture. The “woof is me” is a nice touch. 🙂

    Great captions, guys.

    Rory, yours rings true with us hoping spring is here. Oscar could definitely be saying that.

    Trish, Oscar wasn’t shaking it off so could be he does love that salt and pepper look.

    Marji, yours made me smile. Oscar is a very sweet boy.
