    Default Contest #3 - Nort!

    Please read the Contest Posting Guidelines before submitting your entry, as they have changed.

    We don't get a lot about Nort, but here's what we have from the original version of The Gunslinger:

    "The odor of devil-grass was a rank miasma. The eyes were damned, the staring, glaring eyes of those who see but do not see, eyes ever turned inward to the sterile hell of dreams beyond control, dreams unleashed, risen out of the stinking swamps of the unconscious."

    "The cracked lips writhed, lifted, revealing the green, mossy teeth, and the gunslinger thought: - He's not even smoking it anymore. He's chewing it. He's really chewing it.

    And on the heels of that: - He's a dead man. He should have been dead a year ago."

    This contest will close on January 31, 2008. Good luck and have fun!

    I'm glad there are so many wide open characters with no current illustrations

    Actually, I believe I have seen a (professional) picture of Nort somewhere. It may have been in a magazine or something like that.

    That is amazing, Mike.

    There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.

    With Mike, it's all about the subtleness.

    Nice one, Mike!
