Wow So, itapos;s the morning after the awards banquet at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles and Iapos;m still giddy after discovering that NIGHTMARE ACADEMY 1: MONSTER HUNTERS won "Best Childrenapos;s Novel of the Year" from the SCIBA.
The Southern California Independent Booksellers Association has been so supportive of the NIGHTMARE ACADEMY series and I genuinely like and respect all these great booksellers. Iapos;ve been doing lots of school events through wonderful independent stores like VROMANapos;S, BOOK SOUP, MYSTERIOUS GALAXY, MRS. NELSONapos;S and DARK DELICACIES and I plan on doing a bunch more soon. I can always be reached at dean@deanlorey.com if anyone would like to set up additional events.
The awards banquet was huge fun and I got to hang out with some old friends and meet some cool new people. P.J. Haarsma (who writes the SOFTWIRE series) and D.J. MacHale (who writes PENDRAGON) were both great guys who Iapos;d met before and it was nice to get to spend some real time with them. I also got to see Jim Jennewein and Tom Parker, whose first book RUNEWARRIORS just came out. David Benioff (CITY OF THIEVES) was really cool and it turns out we both have a ridiculous fondness for John Carpenterapos;s movie THEY LIVE. I also had a lot of laughs with Dorothea Benton Frank, who writes the LOWCOUNTRY TALES series. Sheapos;s hilarious.
Anyway, it was a great time and winning this award was just a wonderful surprise. The other surprise was that a bunch of folks referenced stuff Iapos;d said in my blog and I realized that some people actually READ this thing I donapos;t know why that came as such a shock but... Hello everyone. :)
So, thanks again to all who voted Truly. Now Iapos;m all fired up to get back to writing...
