An Embarassment of Awards
I’ll admit I’m not new to writing awards. I’ve been picking them up for years. But I’m used to them coming in as one here, two there. This year, I’m honored (while blushing) to receive FIVE awards in the annual Florida Outdoor Writers Association Excellence in Craft competition. Wow. The awards are:
- Second Place, Book - for Hiker’s Guide to the Sunshine StateÂ
- First Place, Special Communications - for the Footprint (editing & graphic design)
- Second Place, Special Communications - for the Florida Trail Activity Book (writing & graphic design)
- Second Place, Website - for www.floridatrail.org
- Third Place, Website - for www.floridahikes.com
Congratulations to all of my fellow writers who also received honors this week! And thanks to the many fine sponsors who made cash awards possible, which certainly helped defray the cost of attending the conference.
