First off, a big thanks to everyone who participated in the naming of a character in SILENCE! I've been getting a lot of questions about the contest, so I thought I'd post FAQs and my subsequent answers here.
Q: How many entries were there?
A: Nearly 3500!
Q: Have you picked a winning character name yet?
A: No. It will take several days (if not a week or two) to carefully go over each name and select the one that best fits the so-called nameless character.
Q: When will you announce the winning character name?
A: After I've selected the winning name, and after I've contacted the person who submitted it. Hopefully before June!
Q: What does the winner get?
A: I will publicly thank them in SILENCE's acknowledgements.
Q: Will you do another contest like this again?
A: I did a Name-this-Character contest for both CRESCENDO and SILENCE. I see no reason to stop!
