It is very sad that my page count suggestion was rejected, as my last book had 210 pages :-)

Page count is divisible by 7?
I'll see how I do this July!"
I think your page count suggestion may be a little difficult to accomplish, especially as we go into the later months like November and December. Likewise, your Author Name suggestion might be hard to accomplish in those later months, not to mention I already have an entry that does a 7 letter word in the title, so I'm hesitant to duplicate it with Author's Name. I can, however, change the entry to be title OR Author's Name, so it can be the participant's choice. Thanks for your suggestions!
