Each year the ALA (American Library Association) names its top book picks for the year. These are given its Notable Book designation.

It gives me great pleasure to announce that FINN, by Jon Clinch, AKA Mr. Ski Diva, was named an ALA Notable Book for 2007. I think it's one of maybe a dozen works to fiction to make the list.

I am so so proud of Jon, so I hope you don't mind my bragging.

Incidentally, the paperback comes out on March 11.

By the way, my employer is an aspiring author, when I told her that I had met Jon she was very impressed!

I am so so proud of Jon, so I hope you don't mind my bragging..

Not at all! You two seem so supportive of each other... it gives this single gal hope that there are still great guys still out there!
