\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

Hey everyone. I thought I\u2019d share a little news with you. <\/p>\n

On May 19th, 2025, I received word by email that my book, \u201cThe Shard of Asclepius<\/a><\/b>\u201d won the International Impact Book Awards (IIBA) category for Mystery \/ Thriller.<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

I was so shocked when I received the email that I wasn\u2019t sure how to respond. The first words out of my mouth were, \u2018Holy crap, is this real? Did I just actually win an award for my book?\u2019 I then decided to check to see if the communication was real or not because, over the years, I\u2019ve received so many spam and fishing emails that have told me I\u2019ve won something, that I\u2019ve become very skeptical of just about every email I receive. Especially today with the invasion of A.I. programs. I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve had similar experiences, right? That facial expression that comes with a sarcastic chuckle, \u2018Ya right, I won something. Nice try.\u2019 <\/p>\n

I then remembered that I entered a contest and went to the website\u2026and there right in front of me, reality set in. I actually won an award! \u2018Holy crap! It\u2019s real!\u2019<\/p>\n

I then let out a big sigh of excited relief, realizing that my hard work has finally paid off. \u2018I won an award!\u2019 \ud83d\ude0a <\/p>\n

So, before I start bowing and thanking everybody I \u2018ve ever known, for supporting or inspiring me, I want to thank IBBA for the amazing recognition they have given me with this award and for the huge confidence boost it has given me. A million thank you\u2019s IIBA!<\/p>\n

Oh, and for those reading this little message, don\u2019t worry, I won\u2019t thank the entire planet like at those award shows\u2026at least, not until they\u2019ve read, \u201cThe Shard of Asclepius.\u201d \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Who knows, maybe this award will finally bring attention to this great story. If not, I\u2019ll be writing anyways because it\u2019s what I love to do, but if it does\u2026 <\/p>\n

The second book is well underway which should be finalized and released early in 2026.<\/p>\n

Thanks for listening to my little victory news!<\/p>\n
