White Blood: A Lyric of Virginia has won the 2021 Spalding Prize for the Promotion of Peace & Justice in Literature! I’ll travel to Louisville in November to read & share with graduate students in Spalding’s Brief Residency MFA Program. White Blood will be the fall residency’s book-in-common.
”The Spalding Prize was established by the School of Writing to honor a work of literature that exemplifies the mission of Spalding University and our community’s core commitment to compassion and includes a cash award of $7,500.”
