The Island of Worthy Boys is a 2015 USA Best Book Awards Finalist, and a 2015 INDIEFAB Book of the Year Award Finalist.

Connie Hertzberg Mayo came to Massachusetts to get a Literature degree from Tufts University and never left. She first learned about Thompson Island shortly after graduation and immediately knew it was a great setting for a work of fiction, but it took twenty years and the rise of the internet to make her feel like she could start researching and writing. She works as a Systems Analyst and lives in southern Massachusetts with her husband, two children, two cats and her heirloom tomato garden.
