THE Winners of the RICHARD MAXWELL FELLOWSHIP FOR 2008
Esther Kamkar of Palo Alto and Sarah Phoenix of Redwood City are this year’s co-winners for the Richard Maxwell Fellowship in Poetry.

Other poets honorably noted for consideration are Neita Farmer, Sylvia E. Halloran, Cheryl Passanisi, and Eve Sutton.
John A Sarconi is this year's winner for the Richard Maxwell Fellowship in Fiction. Judges noted that this year's entries were highly competitive. Other fiction writers honorably noted for consideration are Caroline Bertinetti and James Alexander Veech.
The fellowship provides free access to all conference readings, workshops and seminars. Each winner will receive a signed copy of one book, dinner with faculty, and a feature in the open reading.
