I just accidentally stumbled across the news that Tracing Paradise received a special mention in the L. L. Winship/PEN New England competition. I had no idea, but I'm very pleased--not least because my friend Meg Kearney's collection Home by Now won this contest in the poetry category.

YAY! You are probably in your heels right now. What exactly is sorrel ? And, I know what you mean about blinking after reading sentences like that Gatsby one. Mary and Mary is really one long blink.

Sorrel is a lemony green, used often in French cooking. It's also a perennial, so it comes up year after year. I hear your friend Elyssa actually won the Winship.
