This year the annual Oregon Christian Writer’s Conference and Cascade Awards Ceremony was held virtually, with the awards ceremony live streamed. I was a double finalist in the ‘Unpublished Children’s Chapter and Picture Book’ category with two other finalists. While I didn’t win the Cascade Award, it was such an honor (and SO thrilling!) to be a finalist.

My finalist certificates recently arrived by mail and it was such a JOY to receive them! Congratulations to all the finalists and to all those who won the Cascade Award!  (To see a list of  the winners, click here.)
