Sometimes, even shouting from the rooftops (or the 2011 equivalent: Facebook) doesn't seem enough. Mainly, because I'm still pinching myself to make sure it's real!

I found out Monday evening that I'd been nominated for a very prestigious award. Namely, Blood Sacrifice (and specifically Keira Kelly) is on the short list for the 2011 Best Urban Fantasy Protagonist award from RT Book Reviews.

For those of you unfamiliar with RT, they are a fabulous magazine who also throw a massive annual convention for book lovers. Their Reviewer's Choice Awards are given each year in spring to leaders in several genres.

I am in fabulous company for my nomination category and am happy for us all. For the full list of nominees, check out the RT site November 14,2011.
