Animal Magnetism

Dear Author,Do you laugh when you read a blurb about another book with an obscure animal shifter? Do you ever want to write a shifter story of your own but tire of those wolves and big cats and dragons? Well, here is your chance to write a character that changes into an animal your readers will be rushing to Google!This man changes into one of these amazing creatures (your choice). Is he a timid African bongo, with graceful vertical horns? Is he a waddling capybara, who make some people giggle with mirth and others jump onto their dining room chairs at the sight of him?Is he a civet, captured in an underground perfume trade? Is he a jerboa, with a tail longer than Princess Diana's wedding train? Or a kinkajou nicknamed Pooh-Bear for his love of honey?Is he an okapi who looks like he can't decide what animal he is?
