Independent Literary Industry Best Editor Award

Independent Literary Industry Awards2I’m shocked and surprised to learn in the last couple of days that I’ve only gone and won the 2014 Independent Literary Industry Award for Best Editor. I was up against the uber-talented Angela Houle and Cynthia Shepp, so I’m doubly honoured by the award. More details of the award here, and while you’re there, check out the good work the people at Underground Book Reviews are doing to promote high-quality independently published fiction.
