The IPPY awards officially announced their winners today, and Queen & Commander won a silver medal for Best Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror E-Book.
Basically, I said “ohmigod” a lot and jumped in literal circles in my office building’s kitchen. (People in said kitchen watched in curious horror.)
Curious? Pick up a copy of Queen & Commander at Amazon.com, Kobo, or iTunes.
Or check out the other winners in the same category, The Bane of Yoto by Joshua Viola with Nicholas Karpuk and Blue Violet by Abigail Owen.
A bit about the IPPY awards
The “IPPY” Awards, launched in 1996, are designed to bring increased recognition to the deserving but often unsung titles published by independent authors and publishers. Established as the first awards program open exclusively to independents, over 3,000 “IPPYs” have been awarded to authors and publishers around the world.
