Neat-o. :D

Psst, EJS, are you EUOL's publicist now? ;) If so, he ought to give you a raise; you're doing an awesome job.

Huh, I didn't even know this award existed. :)
All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

Good job Brandon, although I'm not sure if this award will mean much but every amount of praise helps in your business.

I thought I'd posted about this.  Sorry, folks!  

It was a very nice lunch/award.  It was very humbling to get this, considering the number of books published by LDS people every year.  I didn't even know I was being considered!

*sigh* Someday, I want to win an award I didn't know I was in the running for.

And yet, it's much more interesting, with a cohesive plot and characterization that makes sense!

*sniffle* Oh, wow, I never thought this glorious day would come. I'm truly, truly grateful for this astonishing honor. I'd like to thank my fifteen-year-old self for coming up with my brilliant screen name, Shrain, that I still use to this day. For all those who are waiting for their day to come, don't give up hope. Bless you all, especially the distinguished Parker Cottontail for nominating me!

There is a difference between nominating you for an award and fabricating an award.  :P

You know, you can buy awards. Most trophy shops are willing to make anything you want.
