Wildflowers and Winged Boys placed first!

I am thrilled to learn that my first YA novel, Wildflowers and Winged Boys has placed first in the YA category of the 2009 Lone Star Writing Competition.  The contest is sponsored by the Northwest Houston Chapter of RWA and a YA writer friend from that chapter gave a shout out that led me to entering.

I found out this evening, too late to do anything special, so think I’ll treat myself to writing time in Starbucks tomorrow.  I love having my hot chocolate away from the distractions of my needs-to-be-cleaned house and can-you feed-us-again pets.
