Writers of the Future - Golden Pen Award Oct 2021

So there was this event. In Hollywood. Right next to the Eternals world premier… no, not that event, our event - Writers and Illustrators of the Future:

I won the first quarter of 2021 - the large blue trophy… which included the conference, hotel, flights, and publishing in volume 37.

Then - what I wasn’t expecting and had totally talked myself into believing one of the others would win…

I won the ginormous red trophy too - Grand prize for the year - the Golden Pen Award.

There may have been shock… and tears. What a privilege and what an adventure! I just finished reading through the anthology and every story was amazing - I still can’t quite believe I won.
