David W. McFadden wins Griffin Poetry Prize

I also want to add that poet and novelist David W. McFadden landed this year's Griffin Poetry Prize. Here's an example of a wordsmith who has been at his craft for five decades and running and more than deserves this recognition.

My congratulations go out to him. Congratulations, Uncle Dave, as one good friend fondly calls him - or simply, Dave, as I call him.

You can read more about his travel books and poetry at the Tree Reading Series site.
