Thanks to the many, many people who forwarded me the Fail Blog’s salute to three-handed romance. I have a special love of that cover – that chick is my avatar. Why? The only thing better than having a third hand would be the magical ability to conjure up more hours in the day. Three hands?! OMG PLZ.
So! A contest is born! Take that fabulous cover and LOL-caption it. Certainly we can do better than “FAIL,” because certainly, while it’s an artistic fail, as a matter of promotional opportunity, for Christina Dodd, it was utterly full of win.
Your quest: take the cover, and LOL Caption it. You have 24 hours, and can post them in the comments or post links to an image hosted elsewhere. If you do post them here, please don’t make the image more than 325 pixels wide, please. Vote for your favorites in the comments, please, and then we’ll have a vote-off for the top 3 over the weekend.
Grand Prize? The book itself, of course! One pristine, fabulous copy of the three-handed woman adorning the cover of Christina Dodd’s Castles in the Air. Second prize: $20 to the online bookstore of the winner’s choice, and third prize will be $10 to the online bookstore of the winner’s choice.
Ready, set, go! Copy of the art is below the fold for your downloading and LOLing pleasure.

“My mother did tell me to look for a woman who was handy in the kitchen… “
or
“Now that I have you, might I suggest what you could do with that free hand of yours…?”
“Yes, you may have my hand in marriage… as long as the other two are free to roam!”
It’s not a disability, darling. You’re differently abled. But I told you not to bowl with that hand, okay?
“Can I give you a hand?”
“Let me lend you a hand.”
“Need a hand? I’m not using it for anything.”
It’s got to be said, I can’t help myself:
“I wanna hold your ha-a-a-a-and, I wanna hold your hand!”
“He thought he’d found the woman of his dreams; little did he know that under her lovely, unassuming exterior lurked…Shiva The Destroyer.”
