The runner up prizes ($50 each) for the Eleventh Glass Woman Prize also go to Fictionaut writers. The prizes go to Jenny Gumpertz's story "Peeling Onions" and Gessy Alvarez's story "Herstory." "Peeling Onions" is here: http://www.fictionaut.com/stories/jenny-gumpertz/peeling-onions. "Herstory" is not currently on Fictionaut, but rumor has it that it will be re-posted shortly. Read some of Gessy's other work in the meantime!

That is wonderful! You can't keep the Fictionauts down! Big Congratulations to all 3 winners of this very fine literary prize.
And thanks to Beate for reminding me that we are all part of the same soul. And thanks as well--enormously--for runner-up prize. I feel greatly honored and encouraged.
This is a very noble prize and I'm honored to be a runner-up. Thanks so much, Beate!
I had the pleasure of meeting the lovely and talented Gessy Alvarez last night at the KGB Bar poetry reading!
That was such a great reading, Susan! Of course, the best part of meeting you, sweets.
