We let the photographers do our hair and makeup (even though my youngest sister was only 9) and then we looked over this pamphlet of ways you could appear in your pictures\u2014reflections, blurred edges, smoky overlays.<\/p>\n<p>We chose a giant brandy glass. Three girls, between the ages of 9-17, highly made-up, in the brandy glass.<\/p>\n<p>We gave it to my dad for Father\u2019s Day. Pretty sure that was one of his happiest moments.<\/p>\n<p>A DIFFERENT CONTEST<br \/>\nTo celebrate the release of W&amp;T, I do NOT have anything to do with brandy glasses. I\u2019m sorry! Instead, I\u2019ve got a free paperback copy contest going on Goodreads. If you\u2019re a free paperback type person, here\u2019s the link to enter. I do love a freebie.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s your favorite thing you ever won in a contest?<\/p>\n<div id=\"goodreadsGiveawayWidget248713\">\n<p><!-- Show static html as a placeholder in case js is not enabled --><\/p>\n<div class=\"goodreadsGiveawayWidget\" style=\"max-width: 350px; margin: 10px auto; padding: 10px 15px; border: 2px solid #EBE8D5; border-radius: 10px;\">\n<style>\n    .goodreadsGiveawayWidget { color: #555; font-family: georgia, serif; font-weight: normal; text-align: left; font-size: 14px;<br \/>      font-style: normal; background: white; }<br \/>    .goodreadsGiveawayWidget p { margin: 0 0 .5em !important; padding: 0; }<br \/>    .goodreadsGiveawayWidgetEnterLink {<br \/>      display: inline-block;<br \/>      color: #181818;<br \/>      background-color: #F6F6EE;<br \/>      border: 1px solid #9D8A78;<br \/>      border-radius: 3px;<br \/>      font-family: \"Helvetica Neue\", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;<br \/>      font-weight: bold;<br \/>      text-decoration: none;<br \/>      outline: none;<br \/>      font-size: 13px;<br \/>      padding: 8px 12px;<br \/>    }<br \/>    .goodreadsGiveawayWidgetEnterLink:hover {<br \/>        color: #181818;<br \/>        background-color: #F7F2ED;<br \/>        border: 1px solid #AFAFAF;<br \/>        text-decoration: none;<br \/>    }<br \/>  <\/style>\n<h2 style=\"margin: 0 0 10px !important; padding: 0 !important; font-style: italic; font-size: 20px; line-height: 20px; font-weight: normal; text-align: center; color: #555;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.goodreads.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"nofollow\">Goodreads<\/a> Book Giveaway<\/h2>\n<div style=\"float: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/35688047\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Wills &amp; Trust by Jennifer Griffith\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/images.gr-assets.com\/books\/1500221109l\/35688047.jpg?w=100&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Wills &amp; Trust by Jennifer Griffith\"  \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 0 0 0 110px !important; padding: 0 0 0 0 !important;\">\n<h3 style=\"margin: 0; padding: 0; font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/35688047\" rel=\"nofollow\">Wills &amp; Trust<\/a><\/h3>\n<h4 style=\"margin: 0 0 10px; padding: 0; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;\">by <a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/author\/show\/875617.Jennifer_Griffith\" rel=\"nofollow\">Jennifer Griffith<\/a><\/h4>\n<div class=\"giveaway_details\">\n<p>Giveaway ends August 22, 2017.<\/p>\n<p>See the <a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/giveaway\/show\/248713\" rel=\"nofollow\">giveaway details<\/a><br \/>\nat Goodreads.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"goodreadsGiveawayWidgetEnterLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/giveaway\/enter_choose_address\/248713\" rel=\"nofollow\">Enter Giveaway<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/giveaway\/widget\/248713\" type=\"text\/javascript\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n\n      <div data-chorus-discovery data-url=\"https:\/\/www.authorjennifergriffith.com\/?p=1690\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WINNING THE CONTEST Once when I was\u00a0in high school, I entered a contest to win free \u201cglamour shots.&#8221; To my parents&#8217; dismay, I won and went to collect my prize.
