The Oklahoma Center for the Book has just announced this year's finalists, and The Secret of Main Street is a Fiction Finalist! 🙌🏾🎉
This means the world to me for two reasons:
1️⃣ I poured my heart into this story, drawing from my family's experiences about a place I knew intimately.
2️⃣ I researched extensively on the history of the 1921 Tulsa Massacre, which is central to my character’s journey.
To be seen and read—that’s every writer’s dream. Thank you to the committee for this incredible honor. Wishing all the other finalists joy and good luck! We write because we love it, awards or no awards, but being recognized feels amazing. Untitled design (2).jpg
