Wanted to take a minute to once again thank everyone who voted for my site in the Romancing the URL contest. Thanks to you, this site won not only the Aspiring Author category (judged by industry professionals), but also the Viewer’s Choice Award!

I started learning HTML and web sites back in 1997 when I was obsessed with a local band and wanted to help promote them in the wild west of the world wide web (back then, they didn’t even have an official band site). Little did I know that I would one day be an author and those skills would win contests. Just goes to show that skills are never wasted and everything happens for a reason!
