And the Nominees Are. . .

Thursday, April 29, 2010

Well . . . I won’t know until tomorrow when they’re officially posted who the other nominees are. But I do know this . . .

Stand-In Groom is a

FINALIST

in the

Christy Awards

Why am I so excited? Well, you have Oscar, Tony, Emmy, and, for those of us in Christian fiction, Christy.

The winners will be announced on Saturday, June 26, at the banquet that kicks off the International Christian Retailers Show. Works out well that Barbour had already scheduled me to be at the show—and that it’s in St. Louis, which is in easy driving distance from Nashville.

Tomorrow, I’ll post the full list of finalists, but wanted a chance to do my Snoopy dance today!

    That’s the first one I picked up of yours, and I read the rest of the series, plus Ransome’s Honor…so I’m sure anyone can figure out my opinion of it. (That book deserves to win!)

      It’s a girl’s name—the name of the title character from Catherine Marshall’s book Christy.
