The Convictions of Leonard McKinley

Winner of the 29th Annual International 3-Day Novel Contest: By the age of thirteen, Leonard McKinley’s failure to follow his own moral compass has caused his father’s heart attack and triggered an epileptic fit in his dog. How can he learn to suppress his dark, subversive tendencies and balance virtue with fitting in? Leonard’s story is both poignant and hilarious as he compels himself through a series of increasingly complex ethical trials in order to become a better human being.
