Ready for another of our little game of Name that Judge? Let's see if this one goes as quickly. There are 34 Query Kombat judges and all are agented or published writers with experience in this business.
Some have agreed to join me and give away a prize to whoever guesses their nickname. You can find their bios at Mike's blog, SC's blog, and my blog. (No, I'm not providing the links. Where's the fun in that? But look in the May archive.) I will provide the list of judge names. Guessed judges are marked off.

This judge's nickname was Romida Vane. And they have provided a few hints:
Romilda Vane is, clearly, obsessed with Harry Potter. She comes by magical tendencies the old-fashioned way, having grown up near Salem on the land of an accused witch. She writes very quirky YA and NA and won one of the categories in last year's Query Kombat contest.
First one to correctly name this judge wins a query critique. I'll put a time limit of five days on this, but hopefully we won't need to worry about such things.
Other rules. Let's see...
You don't have to have entered or been picked for Query Kombat to play. Anyone may try and Name That Judge. There will be other posts with fresh judges coming up soon. You may enter more than one Name That Judge post. You may only guess once on each post. You must leave a way to reach you--twitter handle or email address.
Play!
