“Bereft,” my YA novel, won a Bronze Moonbeam Award!

The 2014 Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards were announced yesterday. The Moonbeam Awards are about, “Celebrating Youthful Curiosity, Discovery and Learning through Books and Reading”

Bereft placed third in the “Young Adult Fiction-Mature Issues” category–the Bronze Medal.

My publisher, Tiny Satchel Press, also had another win: Drifting by Lisa R. Nelson won the Silver medal.

Writing is such a solitary pursuit; it’s great to get recognition every now and then.
