#RTDITCOL wins the 2016 Housatonic Book Award for YA and MG!

Totally unexpected! I am delighted and honored that Romancing the Dark in the City of Light was chosen for the 2016 Housatonic Book Award for Young Adult and Middle-Grade Fiction! Heartfelt thanks to the WCSU MFA in Creative and Professional Writing Program, the MFA Alumni Writer’s Cooperative, and all involved. Congratulations also to the other winners and finalists! I'm looking forward to crashing the residency in Danbury in August 2017 to lead a workshop.
