Texas is well-represented among the National Book Award nominees.

According to the official biographies, Mark Doty (poetry) is a professor in the graduate program at the University of Houston; Reginald Gibbons (also poetry) is a Texas native (honored repeatedly by the Texas Institute of Letters) and Kathi Appelt (young people's literature) teaches an occasional course in creative writing at her alma mater, Texas A&M University.

Go Texas Authors. There is so many talented writers in our state and this should be publicized more often.
