Award History
2002 Winner
Writers’ Trust Engel Findley AwardJury Citation
“With her first story, published 20 year ago, Terry Griggs made her mark as an original and arresting writer with a potential to be consistently inventive and brilliant. Over the course of producing her story collection Quickening, the novel The Lusty Man, and the children’s book Cat’s Eye Corner, she has fulfilled all expectations. With her latest novel, Rogues’ Wedding, she shows herself to be in complete control of the language in which she revels, a wizard of plot and style, a master of comedy, a courageous, ambitious, exuberant creator of fictional marvels.”
