Silver Medal, Historical Novel Society 2024 First Chapters Competition

 

Many thanks to the second round judges who awarded my manuscript DAUGHTER OF ENVY the Silver Medal in the Ancient to 16th Century Category of the Historical Novel Society 2024 First Chapters Competition! I am humbled and beyond pleased to accept this award. It is gratifying to know that experts in historical fiction found the chapters well-written and engaging; I hope publishers will, too! Just the boost I needed to move full-speed ahead with my current manuscript, a dual-timeline mystery novel set in Amboise in 1560 and 1989 and centered around the conspiracy that attempted to kidnap the king.
