Congratulations, BJ Epstein!

I'm happy to share an update about practicing writer (and translator) Brett Jocelyn (BJ) Epstein, whom you may recall from this interview. Over on her blog, Brett is reporting on the Nordic Translation Conference, which took place last week in London (and which she organized). As for her personal writing practice, Brett has recently been named a recipient of a 2008 bursary from Academi, the Welsh National Literature Promotion Agency. Richly deserved. Congratulations, BJ!

Thank you, Erika.
But what you didn't mention is that I found out about Academi's bursaries from you! Your ability to find resources for writers all over the world is amazing, and I am sure I am not the only one to have benefited from it. Thank you!

Well, finding these things is one thing, and winning them is another. But thank you for your thank you! I am always thrilled to see deserving writers like you recognized and encouraged.
