Word After Word

Balcones Prize

May 14th, 2008 | Category: Diary Like, Books

My book of poems The Boys I Borrow is a finalist (along with books by Ron Padgett, Laura Kasicske, Bob Hicok!) for the Balcones Prize. 

More information to come. Happy. I’m just so delighted about this and eager to read the winner’s book and the finalists’ books–I’ll post links to their work here soon.
