Angel War: Finalist for The Wishing Shelf Independent Book Awards 2013

My book, Angel War, has been chosen as one of the twelve finalists for The Wishing Shelf Independent Book Awards for 2013 in Category 5, Books for Adults (fiction), I am very surprised and pleased to report. The Gold, Silver and Bronze medalists will be announced at Author.con in April, 2014. The main reason I entered my book for the awards is that I will get feedback from those who judged it in London and in Stockholm and reviews of it from them on Goodreads and Amazon. I never expected to be one of the finalists, so now I am very happy that I am. Available as a paperback since April, 2013, my book, Angel War, will soon be available as an E-book, too. 

  The Fair Majesty Of Folk At Peace, one of my poems, inspired by the life of King Alfred and rooted in my love of Anglo-Saxon verse, has been accepted for publication in a future issue of The Dawntreader, a quarterly poetry magazine, edited by Dawn Bauling and Ronnie Goodyer, and published by Indigo Dreams Publishing, I am happy to say. Searching For The Sangreal, another one of my poems, was published in the Summer 2013 issue of the same magazine. I just felt like sharing with you my good news while wishing you a belated Happy New Year for 2014.
