GA AUTHOR OF THE YEAR NOMINEE

Occasionally, there are moments of good in this life.  For example:

Nominated for the 42nd Annual Georgia Author of the Year Awards for First Novel, Caroline (and White Girl Roar) lost, but so did Joshilyn Jackson, writer of Gods in Alabama and most recently, Between, Georgia.

And if reading a bunch of words perhaps is too tiring for you, author Caroline reads Resurgens Again aloud.  Check the link at the bottom of the story for the podcast.

Also note the link for Caroline's interview with David Lee Simmons, Arts and Entertainment Editor of Creative Loafing, as he asks bloody hard questions about race in the South and other potent subjects.
