Awards Ceremony was held Saturday, October 6th at the Utah RWA Conference. I placed third in the YA category. I'm happy, but sad all at the same time. Happy because my first time out, I made the finals in a writing contest. How amazing is that? Pretty damn amazing if you ask me! Then sad of course because I didn't win. How can I allow that to sadden me at all? It shouldn't. First manuscript, first contest, I can't expect to be perfect already, the next JK Rowling. What I do have, is validation that I have a nack to pull others into my world of make believe.
I need to continue writing, learning and perfecting my craft. Someday, my name will be a household name. I know it.
