Fiction Novel "Ginger Krinkles" Wins New Apple Book Award for Excellence in Independent Publishing

Dayton, OH, April 01, 2015 --(PR.com)-- "Ginger Krinkles" by Dee DeTarsio with graphic design by Sarah Hansen of Okay Crations, receives Medalist Honors in the "Holiday" category and wins "Best Cover Design" of the 2014 New Apple Book Awards for Excellence in Independent Publishing.

Book Synopsis
"Ginger Krinkles" is crossing her fingers that this holiday season will be extra special, for once. She lost her job in San Diego and dreads moving back home to Ennui, Ohio, where she's convinced she will end up like her mean ol' grandmother (God rest her soul). Ginger has always been a holiday-hater. But she has a secret. Make that two. If you buy the first one, maybe it will be easier to unwrap the second: either Ginger is an elf, or there really is magic to be found in an old cookie recipe.

About the Author
Dee DeTarsio is a writer living in southern California. After growing up in Ennui, Ohio, and graduating from The Ohio State University she vowed never to be cold again (in a tantrum more worthy of Suellen than Scarlett) and ended up in Tucson, Arizona, producing the news for the CBS affiliate, oddly enough called KOLD-TV. She moved to San Diego where she worked in the SeaWorld entertainment department as a producer/writer. (Penguins are mean!) She then became a producer/writer for the NBC affiliate. "Ginger Krinkles" is her seventh book.
