Now that the time for entering our literary contests have closed, what's next? Kansas Authors Club Awards of Merit Nominations are due July 15! (The yearbook deadline says July 1 - we have extended it.)

Award winners will be selected by ballot by a committee of Kansas Authors Club members chosen by the Awards Chair. The Awards Chair will present the names of those members nominated to a selection committee before reporting final results to the KAC board as soon as possible after the deadline for nomination. Please give careful consideration to your reasons why the nominee is worthy of an award and list them below. If this person is to be considered for the achievement in writing award, then please list publications of the person’s writing, either published and/or self-published.

You may add more details on attached pages. Contact the Awards Chair if you have questions. Nominations may be made by any individual member of the Kansas Authors Club, by a group or a district.  Thank you!
Anne Shiever Member Awards Chair  My lastest poetry chapbook, Since Corona Ruined Our Trip to the Library, is available for pre-order through Finishing Line Press.
https://www.finishinglinepress.com/product/since-corona-ruined-our-trip-to-the-library-by-beth-gulley/ Here is what District 2 Member Kevin Rabas had to say about it: Beth Gulley is a writer of profound insight, someone who can see both the catastrophe and the miracle in almost anything. These poems are proof. In them, there is a cat that rides thirty miles on the motor of a car being towed. There is an asteroid that almost hits earth on a beloved’s birthday: “Your birthday will still be sweet / without the explosion.” This is the world of Aimee Bender or Judy Budnitz, but it is also our world, as Kansans—or your story, wherever you live. –Kevin Rabas, Poet Laureate of Kansas, 2017-2019, More Than Words  Finishing Line Press has extended the pre-order period for D5 member Robert L. Dean, Jr.'s forthcoming chapbook, "Pulp," featuring cover art by Martha Wherry, up until the press date, which is July 8th, 2022. Those of you who have already ordered, thank you! Those who haven't, now is the time to do so, in order to insure the book gets connected up with Ingram Book Group for distribution. Book orders will ship at the time of printing (about July 8th). Multiple copies ordered receive a shipping discount. The poems in the collection try to capture a bit of the sensibility of the old pulp mags from the 1920s-1960s, like "Black Mask," "Spicy Detective," etc. The title poem is about the inventor of the process of making paper from wood pulp, Cai Lun, a first century C.E. Chinese inventor, who Martha has depicted on the cover, apparently looking at things to come. Dean is always looking to try something different, and this one was fun to put together! Link to order is here:
https://www.finishinglinepress.com/product/pulp-by-robert-l-dean-jr/   The Kansas Authors Club Library is stored within the Kansas Authors Collection at KU's Spencer Research Library. Tracy Million Simmons (state president) and Kristine Polansky (state vice president) were able to deliver books to and tour the Kenneth Spencer Research Library in May.

In intervening years, the collection was housed at the Salina Public Library and at the Topeka Women's Club. The club's arrangement with Spencer Research Library began began in 1986. Simmons and Polansky visited to clarify the arrangement.

“Writing the Radical—Saying the World is Kind and Good.”
In 2012, Lisa Stewart rode 500 miles, alone, on her horse through Kansas and Missouri to fulfill a childhood dream. Lisa will speak about her notetaking and communications on the trip and how she handled writing about the love and kindness she encountered without sounding saccharine or appearing to promote a message. She will speak about why and how she made such a trip, the nature of horses, what she personally gained from the experience, and what she hopes others will learn about the beauty and kindness of the world.

Lisa was the winner of our 2021 "It Looks Like a Million" Book Design Award.
2021 Thorpe Menn Literary Excellence Award for books published by Kansas City area writers
2021 High Plains Book Award Finalist
At 54, Lisa Stewart set out to regain the fearless girl she once had been, riding her horse, Chief, 500 miles home. Hot, homeless, and horseback, she snapped back into every original cell. On an extraordinary homegoing from Kansas City to Bates and Vernon Counties in Missouri, Lisa exhausted herself, faced her past, trusted strangers, and stayed in the middle of her frightened horse to document modern rural America, the people, animals, and land.
Praise:
“Lisa Stewart’s The Big Quiet charts a path for all women. It’s a path at once dangerous and thrilling and a path she had started down and backed out of since childhood. The resulting narrative recounts a journey not only to a point on the map but to a whole and liberated self. Stewart is finally free to trust herself and others, to survive by her wits and with the help of kind strangers of which there are still many. This is a delicious fantasy of a journey most of us deny ourselves and one taken on the back of a horse whose simultaneously terrified and fiercely loyal personality unfurls before us as the richest of characters’ personalities do—on the way from Point A to Point B.”
—Kelly Barth, author of My Almost Certainly Real Imaginary Jesus
“This is a book of gratitude of the highest order. Stewart, a 54-year-old woman riding alone on a high-strung, sure-footed horse across the gravel grid of rural America, is grateful each night for a place to pitch a tent and pasture her horse. But her journey, past and present, is as much about the people she meets, many of whom know how to study a horse and to trust its rider—these strangers are glad to offer water and their own stories, which, like Stewarts’, churn with old wounds, hard work, family, and an abiding trust in open land. This compelling meditation reminds us that every step, fall, and missed road leads the rider home.”
—Gary Dop, author of Father, Child, Water, MFA Program Director at Randolph College
“This book is more than a log of an unusual (for this day and age) solitary horseback journey; it is also a perceptive examination of the author’s own life—a well-written introspective journey of self-discovery.”
—James F. Hoy, author of Flint Hills Cowboys: Tales of the Tallgrass Prairie, Chair of Emporia State University’s English Department and professor, past president of the Kansas Historical Society
“After riding more than 3,000 miles across the United States in the early 1980s, Stewart helped launch one of that country’s most successful saddle companies. Yet Lisa Stewart is no salesman, eager to sell a saddle to gain a commission. She is a long rider who made mistakes and learned by them. She faced obstacles and overcame them. She was presented with ancient riddles and discovered solutions.”
—CuChullaine O’Reilly, FRGS, Founding Member of The Long Riders’ Guild
A unique and inherently fascinating memoir, "The Big Quiet: One Woman's Horseback Ride Home" will prove to be an immediately welcome and enduringly popular addition to both community and college/university library Contemporary American Biography collections. It should be noted for the personal reading lists of all dedicated horse lovers and dedicated travelogue fans that "The Big Quiet: One Woman's Horseback Ride Home" is also readily available in a digital book format (Kindle, $9.99).
