To the victors

go the spoils, of the 25-bales-of-hay variety.  Twenty-five buckets of clam shells.  Twenty-five reams of paper.  Twenty-five bottles of ginseng!  In other words, drinks are on Viet Dinh (Lighthouse instructor till he moved to Delaware), Nick Arvin (your friend and mine), and LH pal Tom McNeely, all of whom made this list. NEA fellowships for creative writing grant each writer $25K to do that thing they do.  Write.  Procrastinate. Doodle. Stretch. Well, for further imaginings, read any of A-Ray's posts. Congrats, all three of yous, and we expect constant updates. Maybe this will be the beginning of a LH epidemic?  (One can only hope.) Let the spoiling begin!
