A few weeks ago, I learned that my book Hear No Evil: My Story of Innocence, Music, and the Holy Ghost<\/a><\/em>\"\" was nominated for an INSPY Award in the “Creative Non-Fiction” category. (Click here to learn about INSPY Awards<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

I must admit, getting nominated did make me smile. I was even tempted to become a little prideful about being nominated. But I resisted. Okay, so I was a wee-bit prideful for like an forty-five minutes. Condemn me. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

But seriously, I am honored to be among the five finalists. So to the panel of judges <\/a>who read Hear No Evil<\/em> and then voted for it to be nominated… thank you. The announcement brought a smile to my face and caused me to sin for almost an hour.<\/p>\n

AND too… my friend Rachel Held Evans<\/a> (<-Read her blog–one of my favorites!) was nominated in the same category for her book Evolving in Monkey Town: How a Girl Who Knew All the Answers Learned to Ask the Questions<\/a>\"\"<\/em>! I LOVE Rachel’s book–HER FIRST, I might add–so it’s cool to see friends being recognized for their talents. Kudos to Rachel.<\/p>\n

Other nominees in our category include:<\/p>\n

A Million Miles in a Thousand Years<\/em> by Donald Miller<\/p>\n

Halfway to Each Other <\/em>by Susan Pohlman<\/p>\n

God Hides in Plain Sight<\/em> by Dean Nelson<\/p>\n

Winners and non-winners (or losers) will be announced on December 13th.<\/p>\n
