Excitement Abounds!

You should have heard the applause when Michele Paige Holmes was proclaimed the winner of the first award, Best Romance and Women's Fiction. She is visibly touched - what a way to kick off the evening.

She is thanking her critique group, comprised of Annette Lyon, Jeff Savage, Heather Moore and LuAnn Staehli.

This is a historic moment. The first acceptance speech for the first Whitney -- and it was so well deserved.
