Eric Hoffer Honorable Mention: Touch of Fate

Tweet

My debut novel, Touch of Fate, received an honorable mention for legacy fiction in the Eric Hoffer 2011 Book Awards.


Touch of Fate was published through Twilight Times Books in 2007, and is still available as both a paperback and an ebook. (Amazon.com has had the kindle version for $2.99 for a couple months now.)


I made the decision to enter it into the legacy fiction category earlier this year, when I was researching competitions and awards for The Immortality Virus. As a new, uncertain author, I missed a lot of opportunities with Touch of Fate, but when I learned the Eric Hoffer Awards had a category for books published at least two years ago, I decided to give it a shot.


I was thrilled to see Touch of Fate receive some recognition after all this time. I would like to take the time to offer a special thank you to Lida Quillen at Twilight Times Books, who gave the book its chance and, through hiring a gifted artist for the cover and wonderful copy editors, helped turn it into the work of art it is today.


For those of you who haven't read Touch of Fate, you can give Chapter 1 a try right here.
