Congratulations, Trebor Healey!

A big "congrats" to Trebor Healey, who was awarded his SECOND Publishing Triangle's Ferro-Grumley award for gay fiction for A Horse Named Sorrow. I had the pleasure of meeting Trebor at Palm Springs Pride last year and enjoyed chatting with him.  I went on to name his book my favorite of the year for Band of Thebes author survey, and also interviewed Trebor for Huffington Post and LGBTQ Nation.Much deserved win.Courtesy of Band of Thebes, here are all the winners:
