I am very excited to announce that Moonlight Memoirs is the 1st place, gold medal winner in the Spirituality category of the 2010 Next Generation Indie Book Awards. These awards are sponsored by The Independent Book Publishing Professionals Group (IBPPG) which is an organization that promotes professional standards in independent book publishing (also known as "indie" book publishing).

This is a great honor for myself as the author and Melody Lea Lamb, as the illustrator because the awards are open to independent publishers worldwide, making it a very competitive book award. The winners and announcement will be on their website in early june. You can check out their website here. Also, Moonlight Memoirs will be listed as a Winner in the 2010 Next Generation Indie Book Awards catalog which will be distributed at Book Expo America ("BEA") in New York later in the month to thousands of attendees including book buyers, library representatives, media, industry
professionals, and others.

I feel very honored to win such a great award, and can't wait to see whats in store for us next! Myself and the illustrator were also just recently interviewed by Talking Books Tv, and our interview will be coming out soon.
