I'm proud to announce that my novel, "Grow Old With Me," is a 2011 Dan Poynter Global eBook Awards Finalist. :-D

It was nominated back in April, but I've just gotten the word about its Finalist status. The Award Ceremony is Saturday in Santa Barbara, CA--too late to get lodging. Bummer!!

Think I'll wait until next week to change the cover and data on Amazon and Barnes & Noble just in case I'm a Winner. ;) The gold Finalist sticker for my book cover looks great. A gold Winner sticker would be even better.

Wow - Congrats!!!

It is about 30 minutes South to Ventura if you'd like to look for lodging alternatives!
