Go Sarah! You rock!

Sarah Einstein, Kathy Rhodes, Susan Cushman; February 2008

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Sarah Einstein just won a Pushcart Prize for her essay “Mot,” a beautifully rendered piece of creative nonfiction. What a well-deserved honor for her! How thrilling for all of us who know her and have read her work!

By “all of us” I am including that tight little group of us at the Mid-South Creative Nonfiction Conference in Oxford, Mississippi, in early 2008. In a manuscript workshop led by Dinty W. Moore, writers like Sherry Walker, Susan Cushman, K.G. Schneider, and I discussed “Mot” and knew then it was a powerful piece.

What an exciting moment for Sarah, an awesome writer and more importantly, a beautiful person!
