Today I was notified that Molly Miranda: Thief for Hire, my silly little book, has been shortlisted for the 2016 Prince Edward Island Book Award. The event is held every two years and a prize is awarded in fiction, non-fiction and poetry. Obvs, Molly was shortlisted in the fiction category.
…Wow.
I am just shocked and grateful and happy and excited and flabbergasted and… Did I say shocked already?
Usually these types of prizes are awarded to literary fiction, not adventure comedies. But my good friend Patti won the same award a few years ago and she writes genre fiction. So that gives me hope.
More details to come.
In other news, Molly Miranda: Thick as Thieves is in the strong yet delicate hands of my lovely editor. More on that coming soon too!
