Rumpus Book Club2010 Amanda Davis Highwire Award Now Open
The memorial award established by McSweeney’s in 2004, the Amanda Davis Highwire Award, is now open to applicants again.
The award “is intended to aid a young woman writer of 32 years or younger who both embodies Amanda’s personal strengths—warmth, generosity, a passion for community—and who needs some time to finish a book in progress. The book in progress needn’t be thematically or stylistically close to Amanda’s work, but we would be lying if we said we weren’t looking to support another writer of Amanda’s outrageous lyricism and heart.”
Check the post for application details.
