If you’ve been sticking around this blog for a while, you’ll note that author Christopher Meeks is a favorite of mine. He writes wonderful short stories and has such talent that it carried over beautifully into his first novel. His second short story collection, Months and Seasons, has been nominated for the Frank O’Connor Short Story Award, which is based in Ireland. Last year, Jhumpa Lahiri won, to give you a taste of the quality of these nominees. Christopher is in good company! The award carries with it €35,000!
I hope you’ll join me in congratulating Christopher on his accomplishment and crossing your fingers for him!

Thanks for the notice. Congrats to Meeks.

I just posted about this earlier today as well – isn’t it terrific? I also have loved his work – it is a much deserved recognition for him.
I’ve never read him, but it sounds like I should change that!
