I just got this from a colleague who works with KU's CLAS. So exciting! It was just announced that Jim has won the KU Alumni Distinguished Achievement Award, and they're honoring him with, among other things, a reading:

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Department of English will present a reading by a 2008 Alumni Distinguished Achievement Award Recipient and internationally renowned science fiction writer, James Gunn, titled, THE BEST OF JAMES GUNN, on Friday, April 11, at 4:00 PM, in the Auditorium in the Spencer Museum of Art at the University of Kansas, a reception will immediately follow in the Spencer's Central Court.

Spread the word!

Best,
Chris

Hooray!!! Thanks so much to you and Nate for the work you did in pulling together the nomination materials. Thanks also to [livejournal.com profile] amjhawk who inadvertently contributed to the nomination materials by his interview he did earlier last year.
