Fireworks!


Those fireworks you see exploding in the sky tonight aren't just to celebrate the 4th of July but they're also to celebrate the great news that Two Bobbies: A True Story of Hurricane Katrina, Friendship and Survival won the Southern Independent Book Award!!Woo-hoo! One of the best things about this award is that the nominations are made by some of the best folks in the whole wide world: indie booksellers.It's such an honor to have our book recognized in this way.

As if being able to write Bobbies with my dearest friend, Mary Nethery, wasn't enough, we get stickers to boot!


Thank you so much, SIBA!
