"Kate Sheridan is our first-prize winner for her essay "Garden Thief." A former landscape designer and contractor, she writes a memoir story of how, in an act of "possible rebalance," or even, "retribution," she rescues something once her own. With mischievous humor and deep feeling, she shows how a problem can be solved without war. The writing is precise, the story both poignant and amusing. And, her descriptions of what makes gardening her love are breathtaking."
"Call Me Master" tells the story of a young woman's disastrous decision, born of boredom and compounded by inertia, that nearly undoes her. This piece is an excerpt from her unpublished memoir "Unclaimed Baggage."
