It was a grueling day at work, Thursday, with a day spent at a company meeting where the dreaded words, “We’re going to be doing some restructuring” came into play. While most of my co-workers went into a panic, I chose to remain calm and optimistic. This is a definite year for “change” so far as my life is concerned but, rather than look it as a challenge I am choosing to see these upheavals as opportunities to grow and reach new heights. Needless to say, I can’t describe how happy I was when I came home and saw a box had arrived with “Rondo Awards” listed in the return address.

Earlier this week we reported how the acclaimed writer of DARK NIGHT OF THE SCARECROW had accepted the award on our behalf at Wonderfest (see story HERE). Seeing a photo of the award made us eager to hold them in our hands and, happily, BOTH arrived (one to me in Chicago & another to David in Rhode Island) om the very same day. In fact, I was uploading a picture of my award onto Facebook when David sent a shot of his, via phone, at exactly the same time, excitingly writing, “Look what I got!!!”

We absolutely can not convey how appreciative we are to all of you faithful readers who took the time out of your busy lives to cast a vote for us. It means more than we can ever say.

Thanks to ALL of you from the bottom of our “Terror-filled” hearts!
