  8. I’m impressed and surprised by the winners and semi final list. Congratulations all! I must admit I have not heard of quite a few of these authors and was surprised by the omission of other writers. However when I started looking up some of these authors I was impressed with what I saw of their work and understood why they were nominated and won. it really is a difficult job to go from imagination to production and then live. I am proud and pleased for all of you for the hard work you put in to bring to us, your readers, these wonderful stories! There were a few names I felt could have been in there and was a little disappointed by this,but overall I am please and proud of all of you. I look forward to reading as many of these books as I can. with the rest of us, you never know when a book will change a life forever!
