wordstock 2 - stock de mot - wortlager

after about two months of insanity, i have checked my email and received a letter from wordstock, the annual literary festival in portland, congratulating me on being one of the ten finalists! i already have secured a place in the wordstock 10, an anthology that will be available at the festival, by being a finalist, but i have to wait until november to hear the final word.

i am ecstatic. wish me luck!

oh. my. god. if i am looking at the right contest, it is being judged by ursula k leguin, my favorite writer in the whole universe!

i am so jealous! and thrilled for you! and drunk! well, two of the three, anyway.

good luck! hope everything else is going well. btw, what is your story about?

you are looking at the right contest and i too am thrilled for me!

and, my story basically boils down to a love story between two lesbian ballet dancers. i think it's pretty intense...

ballet is rife with psychological torture... should be great fodder.

i'm reading an ursula k leguin book now, "always coming home"///

and congrATS!/luck/et al...
