Mollie Rue was awarded 2nd Place in the nonfiction category in the recent Denver Woman’s Press Club Unknown Writers competition.

They had a lovely awards ceremony on Sunday, April 12th at their historic headquarters Downtown Denver. Mollie’s story was “Swamp Sister” that some of you may remember from a reading she did at Pen Women about a year ago (with the songs of Red-winged Blackbirds and memories of her aging brother).

Congratulations, Mollie.
