Yesterday I woke up to the wonderful news that I’ve been awarded the 2015 PEN/Phyllis Naylor Working Writer Fellowship for my forthcoming novel, The Pragmatist! It is such an honor, and I so appreciate the kind words from the judges about the manuscript. It’s really a special moment for me, and I am beyond excited to be working on this book. Many thanks to PEN, the judges, and Phyllis Naylor for this recognition and opportunity, and congratulations to all the authors and books honored this year.
I’m so excited for you, Stephanie! Your writing deserves ALL the awards! Congrats :-)
Thank you so much, Lori! That’s so kind of you. :)
