I just got some really unexpected and wonderful news from my friend Glenn Hauman.
He just accepted an award on my behalf, for Best Original Novel, General Fiction, which was bestowed upon my novel 24: Rogue by the judges of the International Association of Media Tie-in Writers’ 10th Annual Scribe Awards.
The press release with information about all the winners is included below. Let me extend my thanks to the IAMTW, the Scribe judges, my editor Melissa Frain at Tor Books, and my good friends James Swallow and Dayton Ward — the latter of whom also takes home a Scribe tonight! Woo-hoo!
