Congratulations, Gail and Catherine. (For whatever reason, Bill doesn't provide a list of finalists, so for the past two years I asked him for a listing and posted it here. Cathy asked me to try to work the magic again - I've finally found my niche in the poetry world - and I've asked Bill and will advise if I hear anything.)
(There seems to be an exuberant Australian woman swinging from my light fixture. Does anybody else have one?)
