A sincere thank you to everyone who applied. We received just shy of 400 applications (!!) and while it’s always hard to choose, I swear, this year made for the hardest deliberations yet. Steven and I spent SO MANY HOURS reading everyone’s applications, poring over the writing samples, getting happily lost in the websites and online portfolios… It has been such a simultaneously humbling and inspiring experience.

I’m especially excited to announce the recipient of this year’s Tracy Kennard Emerging Writer’s Award: Arti Gollapudi.

Can’t wait to host everyone here at the Inn this November!
