Hello from St. Louis and ICRS! While the show officially opens at 8:30 this morning, the fun was already beginning yesterday! I had my first interview, which was with Laura Story. I met her two years ago in Atlanta and it was fun catching up and seeing how God has been working in her life...and hearing about her 9-month-old baby girl!
Yesterday afternoon I attended the
AWSA Golden Scroll Awards Banquet. Here are the winners:
PUBLISHER OF THE YEAR: Crossway
EDITOR OF THE YEAR: Sandra VanderZicht of Zondervan
FICTION EDITOR OF THE YEAR: Vicki Crumpton of Baker Publishing Group
BOOK OF THE YEAR: Karen Whiting and Jocelyn Green -
Stories of Faith and Courage from the Home Front
NOVEL OF THE YEAR: Jeanette Windle -
Congo Dawn
Following the awards presentation Lysa TerKeurst of Proverbs 31 Ministries gave the Keynote Address. As always, she was phenomenal. She is so authentic and always shares a practical message that resonates deep in the heart. I've been blessed to know Lysa for several years and it was fun to talk with her a few minutes before the banquet. She is such a sweetheart.
Today, I've got interviews with several authors, ACFW will announce the Carol Award Finalists, and tonight, it's the Christy Awards!
