Tom Kirkbride was awarded with an "Honorable Mention" for Book I, Gamadin: Word of Honor at last week's Hollywood Book Festival Awards Event at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood, CA. Though he wasn't able to receive his award in person, his daughter, Lara Kirkbride accepted the award on his behalf. Thanks to Jeff Romeo for the great photos and also to Maria Groschup-Black, of Sunbelt Publications, for her encouragement to enter the competition.
