Announcing the winner of the 2008 Ronald Sukenick American Book Review Prize for Innovative Fiction hosted by FC2 (Fiction Collective Two):
Amelia Gray's Museum of the Weird
Judge Lidia Yuknavitch chose Museum of the Weird out of 175 entries. Along with winning the prize money, Amelia's book is slated for a Spring/Summer 2010 release.
A piercing collection, as poetic as it is poignant, Museum of the Weird will be available for teaching in the Fall 2010 semester.
Congratulations Amelia!!
Okay, y'all: I know I sent several of you a suggestive text message about checking the blog tomorrow, but fuck it--I couldn't wait to post this. Do you know how hard it was to glad-hand at the reading and clap and smile at the base ball game?
Congrats again, Amelia! I love it when a bobcat roars!

Rock on!!!
This is weird. I had a dream last night about people's facebook status updates and in my dream Amelia, yours said something like "amelia refuses to talk about submissions right now." And I posted "What about movie rights?"
SUPER FANTASTIC!!
Holy crap, thanks, guys. This is so weird and great. Abby, before I saw your comment here I had a dream about making a status update about this on facebook. Synchronicity. Hearts.
Carmen, I was very serious in my babbling frenzy that we have to raise a glass soon. I can wait until you're moved into the house if I gotta but then please prepare for visitors!
Awesome! We'll drink before the move, but I still want you to come afterwards too.
p.s. We have the official notice up on the fc2 website.
