In 1997, the Library of Virginia established its annual Literary Awards program to honor Virginia writers and celebrate their contributions to the literary landscape of our state and nation.
The categories are fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. And my book made the nominee list for nonfiction. As a first time author, I am so excited. Given the number of Virginia nonfiction that focuses on history or politics, I wasn’t sure if I’d even make the first cut. But I did.

Congratulations! Proud of you.
Thank you. It’s unlikely I’d win since it usually goes to someone who publishes at a larger press but I m thrilled to be considered.
congratulation to a brave woman.
Thank you Nida
This is wonderful! Congratulations Anne Moss. ❤️
It’s just a nomination and I am surprised given the number of larger press books and ones about history. But I will take it.
