It's a thank you for your loyalty through the years back when I was a nobody and sending out "daily musings". Now that I'm still a nobody aren't y'all glad you stuck by me?
Below, a synopsis of the winning book.
======================================================
Manny Roberts had always been a friend and a decent man, as Georgette Robinson considered him. She admired him so much that she had always been his most enthusiastic political campaign supporter all the way up to the most important political position in the land-President of the United States.
Then Georgette caught Manny Roberts molesting a child. And it was only weeks until the presidential election.
Sure she told Manny's political party and she thought Manny would immediately be pulled from his candidacy with such knowledge known about the candidate.
Wrong.
It was too late for the party to recruit another candidate, and Georgette was told that no one would believe her anyway.
Desperate to keep a pervert from becoming President, Georgette investigates other strange instances of Manny Roberts involving children. She discovers a nefarious, but well-hidden, path of payoffs and bribery.
With the presidential election weeks away, Georgette stands alone in her quest to get someone's-anyone's-attention about this matter.
Finally, she gets the attention of all of America, but in a very unorthodox manner that landed her in jail.
In the end, Georgette is destined for greatness. Just as soon as she gets out of jail.

Saga of Russian Ship Dares to Occur on a Weekend
Seems the 24 hours news channel might be on the air on weekends but there's no actual news.
The Russian sub became trapped under the water late in the week. The race to raise the small submarine and the miracle of the rescue was hardly a subject at all over the weekend.
Now that all is well, maybe we'll find out just what those Russians were doing down there. I don't believe that trapped in a fishing net story for a minute.
Timeline below:
Mini-submarine AS-28 lifted to the surface at 07:26 a.m., Moscow time,with all seven crew members
