I am so excited to say that my book, Sister World, Return to Terah received second place for best science fiction for 2024 from BookFest. BookFest is a book festival that honors excellence in fiction published in the United States. The festival includes book awards such as the American Fiction Awards and the “Best Book” Awards.

It’s been a good book year as things went well at the Big E and Comic-Con. I love both events.

Yesterday I was on the 2024 ARIA Author Showcase and Giveaway event. I’m giving away a copy of Sister World , The Arrival. You can click on the link to read my interview and enter the giveaway! https://tinyurl.com/24zannelli.
I made a mistake answering one of the questions. Let me know if you find it. If you’re the first one to find it, you’ll win a copy of the ARIA anthology, Green. My favorite short story, “Green Eyed Monster”‘ is in it.

Still to come. Mike Squatrito, President of the Association of Rhode Island Authors(ARIA) and I will be interviewed by Christina Erne on channel 10 at 8:00AM on December 5th. Thank goodness Mike’s with me, I think I’ll be pretty nervous. Then there’s the RI Author Expo at the Crowne Plaza from 10:00 to 4:00 on December 7th. I’ll be there along with many other Rhode Island authors, selling and signing our books. I’ll have copies of the complete Sister World Series. I hope to see you there and good luck to you all.
