COTT: First Annual Olympia Award Winner Laura McClellan

FIRST ANNUAL OLYMPIA AWARD WINNER:
Do No Harm
by author Laura McClellan
 
CONGRATULATIONS, LAURA!
 
About Do No Harm:
Do No Harm is the story of a disgraced Seattle obstetrician whose efforts to fit into her new Texas home are stymied by family conflicts, cultural differences, church politics, and ghosts from her past. 
 
About the Olympia:
The Olympia is Clash of the Titles’ opportunity to feature up-and-coming unpublished Christian fiction authors and their work.
Do No Harm was chosen by a panel of judges who narrowed the list of competing authors to three. For that round, the judges were avid readers of Christian fiction and not associated with the publishing industry. For the final round, the submissions went before three professionals in the Christian fiction world.
DEBORAH RANEY–award-winning author
AMANDA LUEDEKE–literary Agent of Macgregor Literary
STEVE HUTSON–literary Agent of WordWise Media
