Awards

On May 3, 2000 at the Waldorf-Astoria in NYC the American Society of Magazine Editors (ASME) honored my 1999 three-part series for PC/Computing Magazine, "Small Business Secret Weapons," with the Oscar of magazine publishing -- a coveted National Magazine Award "Ellie" in the personal service category. My fellow nominees included Smart Money, Fast Company, RedBook, Consumer Reports, and Esquire. A related story appeared in the New York Times which mentions me by name. I've reprinted it here.

The "Ellie" was the second win for "Small Business Secret Weapons." On April 14th, 2000 the Western Publications Association awarded my series a "Maggie" in the consumer article series category.

And still the awards keep rolling in...

In early June 2000, the West coast division of the American Society of Business Publication Editors awarded the series a Silver Award. They spelled my name wrong, but I don't hold it against them... much.

Thanks to all who wished me luck and sent good karma my way. These awards are an incredible honor for any writer and I am truly blessed to have received them.
