I’ve always preferred even numbers, and especially when they’re in double digits. As we cruise toward November, we received this delightful email announcing our 18th literary award for "A Cup of Tea on the Commode."
“We are pleased to announce that our judges of the 2025 PenCraft Book Awards for literary excellence voted your book “A Cup of Tea on the Commode,” as our Nonfiction- Memoir’s 1st Place Winner.
We want our PenCraft Book Awards to represent true book winners, and your book was indeed one that met that criteria. Books that win our competition are examples of literary excellence and have demonstrated notable popularity with readers.

Being a winner in the 2025 competition is certainly something to crow about – you’ve not only beaten out many contenders but also distinguished yourself among a pool of exceptional writers and storytellers. This achievement speaks volumes about your hard work, and dedication, as an author.”
