Awards 2019
In 2019, the Kansas Professional Communicators selected the two columns:
The old table and All grown up
for a First Place award.
Judges' comments included:
Your writing takes everyday life and elevates it to importance. The memories in your parents' empty house brought tears
to my eyes. I join you in rejoicing that so many pieces of "stuff" become treasures for your family.
A second column published in the Manhattan Mercury newspaper also won a First Place award. It was a somewhat longer
version of �The Glitter and the Gloom� column which appeared in Snapshots as well.
Judges comments included:
Historical pieces are often difficult to follow and understand, but this article flows nicely and never loses my interest.
As a KSU graduate myself, I especially enjoyed the tie-ins to campus buildings that I know so well. Kedzie Hall has a special
place in my heart! Well done.
