Pete Minter won the DJ O'Hearn Prize for Poetry,
Age Book of the Year Awards 2000. You only get
$1000 AUS so no one be too jealous, especially
as his partner has been very ill of late.
The Age Poetry Prize is $10,000 not $1000 - still nothing to get jealous
over but plenty to celebrate and reason enough to send warm congratulations
to Pete!
