And guess who's on the list for Superior Achievement in an Anthology? You guessed it...

Now keep in mind we've only made it to the prelims. There's still another round of voting to get through, and if we make it through that, then we can call ourselves nominees because we will have reached the final stages of the ballot process.

Nonetheless, I can't tell you how thrilled I am right now. A Bram Stoker nod in our direction? Are you kidding me? Granted this is just the preliminary ballot, but that in itself is a one heck of a feat for this prestigious award. This would not have happened had it not been for our incredible editor, Nicole Givens Kurtz of Mocha Memoirs Press, who gave our stories a chance to be told.

Oh, and if you haven't checked out the rest of the Mocha Memoirs Press collection, then what are you waiting for?
