I was stunned to see an email in my inbox that read: "You are an Indie Excellence Book Award Finalist!" Spam most likely was my first thought. Then....yikes! Moi? My humble little livre (book), My Keyboard for a Cutting Board ~ Adventures in a French Kitchen v1.0, made it to the finals! Oooh la la! Never mind I lost out to the Junior Leaguers....to quote Susan Lucci, "I'm just happy to be nominated."
UPDATE: My little livre is out of print. I printed a set amount and once it sold out, that was it. I saw one listed on Amazon for $70 a while back (omg!) and I'm considering posting it as a pdf but tbd. Until then, you are welcome to follow my culinary trials and tribulations on facebook or instagram. Until then, bon appetit!
congratulations are in order to you....WOW! You must be very thrilled about being nominated.....this is wonderful! you will get it next time......just got back to the States yesterday and was happy to read this!

Congratulations Laura! Your book cover looks so beautiful, and based on all the raving reviews it must be a hell of a book.
