I won an SASE/Jerome Grant

Every year, Intermedia Arts in Minneapolis chooses 5 to 7 writers to receive a chunk of change to do their artsy stuff. This year, I was one of the lucky 6 chosen! I'm going to use the money to send myself on a book tour for Elvis & Olive: Super Detectives this July. I'll be visiting Chicago, Milwaukee, Madison, and my hometown of Minneapolis/St. Paul. Once I get my calendar squared away, I'll let you know when and where you can come see me!
