On July 1st, it was announced that In the Heart of a Mustang was the first place, gold medal winner, of the Literary Classics Award in the Young Adult General Fiction category. Literary Classics, an organization dedicated to furthering excellence in literature, takes great pride in its role to help promote classic literature which appeals to youth, while educating and encouraging positive values in the impressionable young minds of future generations. Judging is based upon the criteria set forth by Literary Classics' highly selective awards committee which honors books promoting character, vision, creativity and learning, through content which possesses key elements found in well-crafted literature.

In their review they wrote: "In the Heart of a Mustang is one of the finest books ever written for teens and pre-teens. This book is strongly recommended for young readers."

I am so honored by this award. I will be going to their formal award ceremony in Las Vegas on October 14th and doing a book signing with the other award winners on October 15th.

MY NEW BOOK IS ALMOST HERE!

I am excited to announce that my newest book is almost ready for release! I just got the front cover back from the designer. Isn't it cool! The back cover isn't ready yet. The interior editing and formatting is done, however.

The book is titled: "In the Heart of a Mustang." It is a young adult novel about a boy who gets in trouble with the law and is sent to a ranch for troubled teens. There he meets a wild mustang mare that has been adopted from the BLM. An immediate bond forms between the two. The boy learns a lot about himself as the old ranch cowboy teaches him how to train the horse. As tragedy befalls the boy, the mare saves his life. He, in turn, must save her.

You are going to love this story! My next post will be about mustangs.
