First Award Presentation "Best Kept Secret"

Excerpts from Camie's Role in the Book
A Better Pair of Shoes, a novel

"...This shameful secret was one I had considered many times, but continued to keep. I also learned it was especially easier when dealing with men. ...Every now and then, I’d start to feel the emptiness."

"I just needed a little bit of reality. Not the one I had created and now knew, but the one that waited for me in Tampa where Camie was simply a fictional character. As I left Miami behind, I felt more and more like a fraud."

"Desperate and furious, I pulled my cellphone from the holder on my waist and speed-dialed Kayla’s number. I just needed someone to talk to; someone who had some dirt too, and wouldn’t judge me."

I'm stunned by her resolve, but we're all stunned by each other's resolve. They're book publishing roy...

(Click on the Image to open a clearer view) #ABPOS "The Thinner Soul", Chp. 7 Monica Shepherd- What is it with guys and art galleries this millennia: a general period of righteousness and happiness? It's the new wave of hoppers. I used to stand at the corner of the gallery and watch loads of women come through looking for their life's subject in the canvases on the walls. Now it's unknown males just staring with whatever the search hidden deep within. I haven't been able to pin point the caravan in their hearts or the subjects lingering in their messenger bags. I'm captured by his gaze. Standing from behind it's still a deep gaze. I'm studying his selections; where his feet are led to stop, and he appears to have a solid question. I mean.. the three artists, the stories, and the gifts. I study them all as they come and go. I know the types they draw, and I know he's coming my way. It was the recognition he att...
