Adjunct Professor Sid Frost’s first novel, “Where Love Once Lived,” is a finalist in the Yosemite Writers Contest.

Sid has taught Computer courses at Austin Community College since 1980, and won the Teaching Excellence Award in 2005. For the past three years he studied fiction writing by taking an online course sponsored by Writers Digest magazine, a departure from his earlier nonfiction experience.

The Christian novel tells the story of a divorced man in his mid-fifties who returns to Austin to find a woman he once loved. This journey, also a search for his youth, turns into more when he finds the love of God.

The Yosemite Writers Contest is highly competitive, with submissions from across the country. Novel finalists have the opportunity for their submissions to be read by two nationally acclaimed agents. Winners will be announced August 26, 2006.
