I don’t know what you are talking about.” The expression on her face told him that she did. “You plagiarized THEN THERE WAS LIGHT. I read the synopsis, so don’t deny it.” “Now, listen, Tyler…” ISBN #: 978-1595071361  Adult Novel PUBLISHER: ArcheBooks Publishing            Contemporary Suspense/Mystery

All the cabinet doors were open and cans of food were everywhere. In the middle of it all was Grandma. "I was looking for the Jello," she said cheerfully. I opened the refrigerator door. One dish remained. It was the Jello. ISBN #: 978-1555234065  Young Adult Novel PUBLISHER: James C Winston Publishing Co.        Contemporary Suspense, Family Life

Award or Mention Award or Mention Award or Mention Award or Mention Another deafening roar exploded from the coliseum, and when it did Marla threw down her partially-smoked cigarette and ground it into the polished tile floor with the toe of her shoe.  Quickly she reached for another cigarette from the opened pack in her small red handbag.  She lit it, sucked the smoke into her mouth, held her breath, coughed, and then slowly released it.  Marla didn't smoke, but when she paced up and down the hallways of basketball coliseums, puffing on cigarettes seemed appropriate.  It gave her something to do with her hands, and it helped keep her sane.”  ISBN #: 978-1595070425								 Adult Novel PUBLISHER: ArcheBooks Publishing			            Contemporary Suspense/Mystery
