I recently realized that I forgot to hit “publish” on this blog post . . .
. . . SO here it is (oops lol), the announcement from May:
I’m excited to announce that I’ve received an HONORABLE MENTION in 2025’s PB Party!!!
How cool is that?
I’ve entered Mindy Alyse Weiss’ “PB Party” four times now, beginning in 2021, and this year my work was recognized! It was very exciting to get that email and then see my story listed on her website. This is a big contest and sooooo many talented people enter it every year that it’s an honor to have placed within the ranks of stories that topped the list.
The manuscript I entered was TOBY AND THE MOON.
You can see it in the screenshot below:
Toby has been through quite a few revisions and name changes, but no matter what, it remains a story about persistence.
In the world of traditional publishing, persistence pays off.
And the PB Party is a fantastic opportunity, so I encourage people to enter.
Check it out on Mindy’s website, or follow her on Bluesky.
Happy Writing!
