WestBow Press Awards Publishing Package to Author at 2010 Orange County Christian Writers Conference

BLOOMINGTON, Ind., May 10 /PRNewswire/ -- WestBow Press, the self-publishing division of Thomas Nelson, has awarded Mary Henderson of Fountain Valley, Calif., a free Bookstore Advantage publishing package at the recently held Orange County Christian Writers Conference. Henderson said she will use the package to publish her book, Break Free: Journey with God through Chronic Illness to Health.

"Seven years ago, I was in a wheelchair and could barely feed myself or brush my teeth, due to an incurable chronic illness, fibromyalgia. Doctors told me there was no clear treatment plan, and the things I tried weren't working," Henderson said. "Today, I am the picture of health, living a normal, active life. In my book, I invite others to learn with me as I describe my experience. Along the way, I mentor readers in creating their own battle plan for achieving physical and spiritual vitality amidst illness."

Henderson was awarded the package after being chosen by the contest's judge, Kathi Macias. Macias has published thirty books -- through both self-publishing and traditional publishing -- including several in the inspirational and Christian genre. She also serves on the Author Solutions, Inc. Author Advisory Council.

"This was a challenging contest to judge," Macias commented. "We had such a great response, and the entries were excellent! Mary's book will be a great help to many."
