Good Morning!
It's Sunday 15th December 2024 and last night I found out that Novice Threads, Book 1 of my Silver Sampler Series, published in May 2020, had won two medals in The Coffee Pot Book Club Awards 2024.
One of the finest things about me entering a book competition is that once entered I tend to forget all about the entry and then the surprise is so huge when I find that my novel has been placed, or won an award!
That's exactly what happened last night. I noticed a friend in Seattle had posted to Instagram that her book had won an award in the Coffee Pot Book Club Awards 2024 and it prompted me to go searching. To my absolute delight, I discovered that NOVICE THREADS had won a GOLD MEDAL in the Historical Women's Fiction Category and a SILVER MEDAL in the Enlightenment (1600s - 1800s) category.
The books in the competition are absolutely wonderful novels, some of which I've already read and others are still on my TBR pile on my always full Kindle.
My thanks go top the team at The Coffee Pot Book Club for the time, effort, and expertise it takes to make the selections and to present the awards.
Now to get on with that writing of Books 2 & 3 of the Silver Sampler Series.
Slainte!
