I was promoted on Thanksgiving, November 24, 2016, to a preferred author after only 4 months as a member, and I'm extremely humbled and, quite frankly, amazed. I am also honored to be part of the Rising Stars Program for which I will be graduating in June 2017. I celebrated my first year anniversary on WdC on June 5, 2017. I received my first quill award this year for best mythology/folklore which has humbled me tremendously. I was a nominee for best new portfolio, a finalist for best paranormal/sci-fi and received honorable mention for Writing Your Memoir group! Thank you WdC!
