Former Glad Tidings editor, L. June Stevenson has been nominated for the 2008 Best New Canadian Christian Author Award for her memoir Tracing Rainbows: Lessons Along the Way. Stevenson, of Ajax, Ont., is up against five other authors for her manuscript which, if it wins, could be published by Castle Quay Books Canada.
The award, sponsored by The Word Guild a national association of Canadian writers and editors who are Christian, and Castle Quay Books Canada, recognizes the most promising manuscript by a Canadian who writes from a Christian faith perspective.
The winner will be announced on June 11 at The Word Guild writing awards gala in Mississauga, Ont., which the public is invited to attend.
The annual competition is open to any Canadian citizen or permanent resident who affirms the Apostles' Creed and has never had a book published by a royalty-paying publisher. Visit www.thewordguild.com for details.
