Award Party!!!

Last night the CEO had her moment in the sun thanks to the Oregon Literary Arts Woman's Writers Fellowship that she received. What an incredible night. It's hard to put in to words what it was like for me and I'm sure the CEO was even more overwhelmed, I had never seen her so nervous. There must have been about 100 people there, 13 of them grant recipients. I felt so adult, for lack of a better word. This was a room filled with serious, high caliber writers, people were dressed nice and interested in the work of the writers. It was such a step above the typical coffee shop sort of scene I'm more accustomed to. The CEO was the last person to speak and she did a wonderful job. She gave a the room a small insight in to what her play was about and it sparked interest in may who listened. I know this because after she spoke she spent a good hour talking to people who came up to offer their congratulations, I now call these people her new fan base.

Congratulation CEO! You well deserved the recognition.
