I would like to share some wonderful news I received today...
As some of you are aware, I am legally blind and have been since very early infancy. I belong to an organization called the National Federation of the Blind. Every year this organization sponsors a writing contest for its members. I am very pleased to announce that this year my poem 'Embers' was awarded second place in the Adult Poetry caters gory and my memoir 'Being Mama' was awarded third place in the Non-fiction/memoir/essay cater gory. The caliber of writers in the group is phenomenal so needless to say I feel very honored and humbled by this. I believe 'Embers' is still posted here though it has been revised somewhat. 'Being Mama' is not posted here but I will post it soon. Thank you to all of you who have supported me here at Authors' Den. I cherish each of you!
