...occasional postcards from Washington, D.C. poet Sandra Beasley...
I have won this year's Elinor Benedict Poetry Prize from Passages North at Northern Michigan University. The prize was judged by John Poch and carries a $1,000 award for a single poem or group of poems. (Don't ask me which poem or poems, just yet; details are unfolding.)

My second collection, I Was the Jukebox, has won the 2009 Barnard Women Poets Award and will be published by W.W. Norton in Spring 2010. My first collection, Theories of Falling, won the 2007 New Issues Poetry Prize. I'm a sometimes contributor to the Washington Post and at work on a new project, Don't Kill the Birthday Girl: Tales from an Allergic Life, forthcoming from Crown.
