What a thrill! And I was definitely surprised. My historical novel, Mary's Place won the Will Rogers Gold Medallion. The award was all the sweeter because my daughter, Michele, was able to attend. The event was held in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Next year it will move to its permanent location, Claremore Oklahoma.
This book was published by the University of Nebraska Press. The staff did a bang up job of sending copies out for reviews and submitting Mary's Place for awards.
This event is definitely on a roll. The attendance grows every year. I had the pleasure of a long talk with Michael and Kathy Gear, two of my favorite people in the writing community. AND they know everything about publishing.
The Gears tell me that the whole publishing industry is in an upheaval right now. Which means it's in its usual state.
