BOOKFEST RECEIVES NEA SUPPORT: The Wyoming Arts Council and consortium partner Casper College have received a $7,500 National Endowment for the Arts grant to support the Equality State Book Festival in Casper Oct. 19-21. I wrote the grant for the bookfest planning committee, so I’m especially pleased. This is Wyoming’s first statewide book festival. It’s also the 20th anniversary of WAC’s creative writing fellowships and the Casper College Literary Conference, which is part of the bookfest. Wyolitmail will post more news about the event as it becomes available.
