Some of you may recall that The Girl Who Cried Squid (aka Krin, or Off Beat) became a finalist in the American Christian Fiction Writers Genesis contest back in spring. The results of the contest were announced Saturday at the annual conference, and my novel placed third in the Science Fiction/Fantasy/Allegory category.
The finalists are:
1st: Chawna Schroeder, Metamorphosis
2nd: Lynda K. Arndt, The Song of Blood and Stone
3rd: Valerie Comer, The Girl Who Cried Squid
Last year, Marks of Repentance went to the final level but did not place, so the improvement makes me happy.

Congratulations, Valerie! I love the title. I would have to pick up a book titled The Girl Who Cried Squid, just to see what it was about.
