Forever Home just finaled in the AWSA Christan Market Book Award! Praise God from Whom all blessings flow! I found out by accident because I was looking on the Blue Ridge Reader Connection Facebook page for something else and saw my name on this post. Stunned and confused ( I thought the announcements had already been released), I reached out for confirmation.
It’s true. I heard the announcer say my name.
Look at the names of wonderful writers on that list. Carrie Stuart Parks, Liz Tolsma, and Tracy Higley are also finalists for the fiction category.
Since I’d been practicing making graphics with Book Brush, I made a special announcement.
The awards will be given on August 6th in Lexington, Kentucky! I’m so happy to be included on this list. I’m so happy that more people enjoyed Sam and Merritt’s story.
I’m so happy and grateful.
However, I’m not called to win awards. I’m called to write what God gives me, to walk the path that He’s laying out for me. But…when someone pats you on the back and says, “Well done,” it makes a body smile.
I’m smiling.
