We are very pleased to announce that Carl Grindley has won the Ravenna Press 2nd Annual Cathlamet Prize for Poetry with his entry "Lora and the Dark Lady."  Second place goes to Nathan Neely for "Chapbook for the Recently Deceased," and Third to Mark Simpson for "Fat Chance."

Honorable Mentions go to Zachary Greenberg, David Wolf, Alessandra Bava and Carrie Gilstrap-Nettles, and special nods go to Paul David Adkins for Most Courageous Collection and to Judson Simmons for Best Title:  "Church of God with Signs Following."

Thanks very much to everyone who participated!  The high level of entries overall made judging pleasantly difficult.
