Award for Max in the Capital of Spies

Last Saturday at the League of Utah Writers awards banquet, my book Max in the Capital of Spies was awarded the Gold Quill in the category of “Young Adult and Middle Grade Novels.” There was a Diamond Quill award winner, and there were Silver, Bronze, and Recommended Read awards given in the category as well (congratulations to Alex Hugie, Kat Farrow, Amanda Empey, and Robyn Dabney, respectively).

(If you’ve read my novel, please leave a review on goodreads and amazon. It helps a ton!)

I was (and am) over the moon about this… and now I want that diamond quill! And Editor of the Year (congrats to C.R. Langille of Timber Ghost Press!).
