I am happy to announce that Teresa Ballard is a finalist for 2005 SASE/Jerome Award of $4,000 for her manuscript “What a Strange Machine”
What does this mean? Well in September I am facing a panel of seven people to be interviewed about my manuscript and if they view me worthy they give me money and I get to hire my nanny named Lola and do nothing but write for a bit. Praise be to the poetry gods.

HOT DOG DIGGITY DAMN!!!!!!!!!
Woo hoo! That's FABulous!!
4 thousand smackeroos?
You go, girl!
Congratulations!
Now, knock their socks off and win win win!
Oh, this is VERY cool! Good luck with the interview stuff when it comes -- heck, just having seven people willingly sit still to listen to you talk about your work sounds like a prize in itself to me. :)
Anne will you go for me? Just tell them you promise to publish the best damn book and take the check and run.
God I cant believe I have to wait this long and make myself crazy.
Thank you all for the well wishes. You are the best writing friends a girl could have.
Congrats, T.!
Steve
Fantastic, T.E.! You deserve it! Next task is to find that Lola chick...
Thanks Steve, I lost the Loft thing. They dont like me there.
And Jeannine yes I do, I am taking (bribes) applications right now.
