This past weekend I attended the annual Bouchercon Convention which was held in Nashville, Tennessee. A good time was had by all and with two knee replacements, I walked a total of 27,900 steps, an average of 5,580 steps per day. Of course today, I’m feeling it.
Anyway…
The main event is when the Anthony awards are handed out. I was nominated with my friend, Kristopher Zgorski for our first published short story, TICKET TO RIDE that is featured in the “Happiness Is a Warm Gun: Crime Fiction Inspired by the Songs of The Beatles” edited by Josh Pachter.
And…
We won an Anthony Award For Best Short Story. To be honored by the Bouchercon community is a blessing and we are happy to accept this trophy.
Super duper congratulations to Kris and you. Anthony, Agatha…. you guys are on a roll!
Congratulation!!! A well deserved honor!

Bravo to you and Kristopher and kudos to navigating what must be the world’s most confusing and spread out hotel. Too many stairs, too few elevators, and too many steps to get anywhere. An odd choice for the conference. I hope the next Bouchercon hotel is accessible to all.
Mazel Tov Dru, I see a lot more writing in your future and I can’t wait to read the books that will be coming out of your imagination.
Wow!!!!! that is just amazing. And well deserved! congratulations.
Congratulations, Dru! So well deserved! And it was great to see you again this year. I’m so glad your health allowed you to put in all those steps, but now, I hope you can rest and recover. It was a whirlwind of a weekend and lots of fun. Take care.
