HFC 5-Star Highly Recommended Award
From the Drop of Heaven wins another literary award. I can proudly announce that I won the coveted 5 Star Highly Recommended Award from the Historical Fiction Company .
Winning this 5 Star designation advances my novel into the book of the year contest. Just being nominated into this contest is a great honor as Reedsy just awarded The Historical Fiction Company’s Book of the Year contest an award for “Best Writing Contest” of 2022!!
Royal Palm Literary Awards Gold Medal
Royal Palm Literary Awards (RPLA) is a prestigious writing competition sponsored by the Florida Writers Association recognizing extraordinary writing in 28+ genre categories for adults and 5 for youth and provides objective and constructive written assessments to all entrants.
At my regular weekly writers’ critique group meeting, someone suggested that I enter this contest. Nobody was more surprised than me when From the Drop of Heaven won the gold medal for previously unpublished historical fiction.
I believe that receiving this honor gave me the boost that I needed for Sunbury Press to take notice of my Renaissance Historical and offer me a contract.
