    Extremely honored to have Merry Go Round selected for this competition! It won the Bronze Award for Fall 2021 and it was very encouraging. The submission process was clear and there was a lot of information provided on the festival itself. Thank you!

    Pleased with a Gold award for Journey to Fisterra - a character based story of two half-siblings crossing the Camino in Spain. Themes and undercurrents of their relationship will be difficult for some audiences and readers, so I appreciate WRPN reaching out on this one. Thank you.
