I am so incredibly thrilled and honored to announce that my debut novel, The Traveling Triple-C Incorporeal Circus, is a finalist for the Independent Book Publishers Association’s Benjamin Franklin Awards, in the Best New Voice: Fiction category.

The other three books in the category are The Boys Who Woke Up Early by A.D. Hopkins, The Last Getaway by Clay Savage and Sassafras by Trish Heald, and I cannot wait to give all of them a look. This means so much to have my work shared with the larger indie publishing community. While the formal ceremony in Redondo Beach had to be cancelled due to Coronavirus concerns, I will still be eagerly awaiting and cheering on the announcement of the winners in April.
