Excited to be a finalist! Congratulations to all ~
Congrats to all the finalists! I'm so excited to be among them. Also, I just wanted to recognize my co-authors on Heirs of Falcon Point (Historical category): Sian Ann Bessey, Paige Edwards, and A.L. Sowards.
Hi Tracy,
Happy to share the podium with you as one of the Historical Fiction finalists with my historical mystery: The Artist Colony
I'll have to check out your novel.
Are you going to the Award Ceremony? Sounds like fun.
all my best, Joanna FitzPatrick
