I am happy to announce that Hearts of Darkness is a finalist in the Georgia RWA’s Maggie Contest and the New Jersey RWA’s Put Your Heart in a Book Contest. Both are pretty big chapter contests. The PYHIAB is judged by three published authors in the first round (3 published people liked my entry!!!) and judged by an editor, agent, and big name author in the final round. This year the paranormal final judges are Cori Deyoe, Three Seas Literary Agency, Holly Blanck, St. Martin’s Press, and author Deborah Cooke. The final judge in the Maggie paranormal/fantasy category is editor Esi Sogah from Avon.

This is the end of the contest train for me, unless I enter the Golden Heart (which is sadly not electronic). It’s nice to go out on a high note.
