So I have good news and bad news about my book THE PONO WAY.
Good news: the book gained a really positive and lengthy review on Amazon. Check it out here. Thanks, K Reviews! An auspicious name for me!
Perhaps that sale came through the Self-Published Science Fiction Contest. Which — segue! — brings us to the bad news.
THE PONO WAY did not make it to the final round of the competition. Not really bad news, I guess, but not-great news.
I was expecting it. Reviews by contest judges were mixed. And there were only seven finalists, so the competition was steep.
I’m happy to have made it through the semi-finals. Big shot of confidence for my career.
Congratulations to all the SPSFC finalists! May the best entrant win. Here they all are:

Hey, at least you tried. Keep trying, you’ll get there someday. You know what they say… “No failure, no victory.” 🙂 And congrats on making it almost to the end, even if you didn’t win the big one.
