I feel very lucky to have won a second award from Writer’s Digest. In 2010, my personal essay “The Decision Tree” won third prize in the annual Writer’s Digest writing competition. In the fall of 2011, another essay titled “Telling Him” won “honorable mention.”
Separately, the essay “Telling Him” was a finalist in the Pacific Northwest Writer’s Association annual writing contest, also in the Personal Essay category.
A big thank you to Writer’s Digest and PNWA for operating these contests. The PNWA program includes written feedback. Every submission gets read, and the author gets written feedback from two judges. That feedback has been incredibly helpful to me as I work on improving my craft.
