Just received word that The Bootlegger’s Legacy has been selected as a finalist for the CIPA EVVY Award for the Fiction/Mystery & Detective category. CIPA stands for Colorado Independent Publishers Association and of course has special meaning to me since I currently reside in Colorado. The award is open to all authors–not just those living in Colorado.
They will announce the order of the winners in a few weeks and I will let you know how I did. Great honor to be named a finalist no matter how it turns out. Thanks CIPA.

Ted Clifton, award winning author, is currently writing in three mystery series—Pacheco & Chino Mystery series, the Muckraker Mystery series and the Vincent Malone series. Clifton’s focus is on strong character development with unusual backdrops. His books take place in Southwest settings with some of his stories happening in the 1960s, 1980s and current times. The settings are places Clifton has lived and knows well, giving great authenticity to his narratives. Clifton has received the IBPA Benjamin Franklin award and the CIPA EVVY award--twice.
Ted is also an artist. Much of his work, digital, acrylic and watercolor, has been inspired by living in New Mexico for many years.
Today Clifton and his wife reside in Denver, Colorado, with frequent visits to one of their favorite destinations, Santa Fe, New Mexico.
