Local Girl Makes Good

[klages]

Hey All --

It's Good News Monday.

I just found out that my new novel -- White Sands, Red Menace -- has won the California Book Awards Gold Medal for YA Fiction.

If it weren't for my busted knees, I'd be jumping for joy. (I'm whistling and grinning a lot instead....)

PS: More details as I know them, but the awards ceremony is at the Commonwealth Club

Congratulations! I got another one of my 10th-graders hooked on Green Glass Sea. I'll give 'em White Sands next year.
