The awards article reminds me that I checked out an audio book award this past week that was almost $200 to enter. No thanks!
That’s awful! Can’t imagine they’ll have many entries.
I think I’ll start with the one on pacing – always need to work on that!
It’s always tricky to get it just right! Hope you have a great week!
