Holding Still for as Long as Possible wins a Lambda Literary Award!!!

I just returned from an overnight trip to NYC for the Lambda Literary Awards. My most recent novel won in the best Transgender Fiction category. You can read about the night on the Entertainment Weekly blog? For real.

This is Emma Donoghue announcing my book in the best lesbian fiction category. Eileen Myles, who faithful readers will know is a friend and someone I admire very much, won the prize. So that rocks.

Me clutching my prize in a lovely state of shock.

My fellow canuck nominees and seatmates: Daniel Allen Cox, Amber Dawn and Vivek Shraya.
