STRAY and the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Contest


STRAY is being polished off and getting ready for Amazon's BreakThrough Novel Contest in February. The contest is open to self-published titles and is a yearly rite of passage for some of us it seems.

STRAY goes to the award ceremony every year, never expecting to win, but it's an honor just to be nominated (make it into the later rounds)

It also gets a new cover every few months. It's the blessing and curse of self-publishing. Here's the latest. 

STRAY

It really is a sweet story especially considering the reported 50,000 STRAY dogs wandering the streets of Detroit where the story is based.
