Watch bookstore magazine racks or check online for the Spring 2009 issue of Rosebud. Included are the winning essay and four runners-up for the fifth biennial X.J. Kennedy award for creative nonfiction. ($1,000 first prize, $100 runners-up, plus publication in Rosebud.) I’ve had the honor of co-judging the last three contests with the magazine’s editor, Rod Clark. This year’s winner: Kim Garcia for “Water and What Contains It,” praised as “the luminous reverie of an expectant mother.” And feast your eyes on the vibrant psychedelia of featured Neenah, Wisconsin artist Bruce Bodden (that’s his work on the cover). Don’t miss Rod Clark’s piece on Bodden, “Mad Cows and Electric Trees.”
