Hope you’re catching your breath after the conference. I know it is a ton of work, but from my side of the screen, it was terrific. I just loved it.

Thank you for the marvelous event Chanticleer put on. I’ve been touting Chanticleer and the awards given to me on all the sights on which Abigail’s Window is being promoted. (2019)

Now THAT was an incredible conference. Can’t wait to take part in another one (in person) at the Hotel Bellwether in the future. Thanks so much for all the hard work that must have gone into it. Did you sleep for days after?

Dear Kiffer (and all the great people you work with!),
I am so excited and honored to have won this award! I personally love Twelve, the book that won it, and I can’t tell you the pleasure I’ve experienced that someone else sees value in it too. I’ll be publishing it in the next couple of months, and the award will be prominently featured on the book and my web page.
It was rather great too that my other two entries made the semi-finalist list. You folks obviously have great taste!
—Susan Brown, author of several books including Twelve and 2019 1st Place Category Winner for the Dante Rossetti Awards.
