Word Search: Bounty Hunter Names (Contest)
Thursday, July 25th, 2024

UPDATE: The winner is…Roxie A Jones!
*~*~*

I just began my third Montana Bounty Hunter series, this time set in West Yellowstone, Montana. When I started I had no idea how much fun they would be to write. But I’ve already filled up two offices in Bear Lodge and Dead Horse, so, I either needed to move out of state or find another Montana town I wanted to “visit.”

Thank you, by the way, to everyone who picked up their copy of Cyrus!

I have a process I go through before I start a book. First, I need a name. Then, I need a picture to go with that name. The name and the picture inform me about who the person I’m about to write is. The name, Cyrus Walsh, seemed a little old-fashioned like he could’ve been a gunslinger in the Wild, Wild West, and the photo I found with his narrow-eyed squint told me that was how he looked out at the world, with a hint of suspicion and need to figure out who he was facing. If you’ve read the story, you know how much Milly, the woman who captures him, loves that narrow-eyed glare.

Now, the problem is finding more hunters to people the office in West Yellowstone. Take a look at the previous two series cast of characters…

Bear Lodge, MT

Dead Horse, MT

Contest

For a chance to win a $5 Amazon gift card, suggest some names for bounty hunters so I can begin my process of figuring out will fill my cast of characters in West Yellowstone!

And I added a puzzle because we need one of those right about now, right? Enjoy!

    Until I saw them all together like this, I hadn’t realized you had such fun names going on. I think you need an Elvis. A Wyatt, (also an old fashion name.) Doc is always good, if a bit overused maybe. I have also been a bit fond of Tobias.

    Have a wonderful day!

    Raliegh, Santiago, Harlem, Cambridge, …you might have noticed that they are all locations. I can imagine that becoming a running joke that everyone has a location name.
