The good news keeps coming. I learned today that Escaping the Giant Wave has won the 2008 Young Hoosier Award. This is the fifth time that one of my books has won in Indiana, a new record for me.
The five winning books represent three publishers, and include two mysteries, one memoir, one adventure story, and one novel that I don’t know how to categorize. (I only write them; someone else has to figure out what they are.)
Here are my Indiana winners, and the year that they won:
1992 – Nightmare Mountain
1995 – Horror at the Haunted House
2001 – Small Steps: The Year I Got Polio
2007 – Abduction!
2008 – Escaping the Giant Wave
