Daphne du Maurier Award

I'm delighted that Watch Over Me, Book 2 of my Code Talker Chronicles, has been nominated for a Daphne du Maurier Award!  The award is given by the Kiss of Death Chapter of Romance Writers of America.  It honors Romantic Suspense /Mystery novels.

It's named for the famed 20th century novelist Dame Daphne du Maurier, author of Jamaica Inn, My Cousin Rachel, Rebecca, and The Birds.  What stories!  They have been adapted into movies and TV series many times became they hold up and readers love them.  Here is Dame Daphne in her youth...
What an honor!  Thank you!

Award Season!

Hollywood is not the only place with an award season.  We in the world of storytelling put on our Sunday best and peace about come spring too.  I'm delighted to announce that my second in the Code Talker Chronicles, Watch Over ME has been shortlisted for a Chanticleer Award.

So off I go April 20 to 22, 2018  to the Chanticleer Conference in Bellingham, Washington.  I love the Pacific Northwest and it is book country, maybe thanks to all those cosy rainy days?
