FWJ Alum Edie Meidav Nominated for Book Award

Edie Meidav, who guest-edited fiction for our Spring 2010 issue, has been nominated for a Northern California Book Award. Congratulations, Edie!

For more information, check out the article Berkeleyside has written about Edie and her recently published novel, Lola, California:

Novelist and Northern California Book Reviewers member Steven Simmons finds that, “Meidav gets the bustling intellectual and cultural intensity of Berkeley; the oddly exhilarating anomie of Los Angeles; the physical and psychological terror at the pot farms in Mendocino; and the sensory pleasures as well as the spiritual delusions of a neo-hippie retreat … She digs deeply and painfully into the changing relationships over three decades of husband and wife, parents and children, and friends.”

Congratulations again, Edie, and best of luck to you!
