Congratulations to DFW HWA member Charlee Jacob and her collaborator Marge Simon for winning the Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in poetry for their 2007 book VECTORS. Congratulations are also due to DFW HWA's C. Dean Andersson; he was nominated for a Stoker for Superior Achievement in Short Fiction for his short story "The Death Wagon Rolls On By" which appeared in Cemetery Dance #57.
In other news, Texas Frightmare Weekend 2008 was an absolute blast. Our sincere thanks go out to the organizers of this event for inviting our members to appear as guests. They've invited us back again for next year, and we're looking forward to it.
