Italian American author Jo-Ann Vega’s debut poetry collection, Wolf Woman & Other Poems, is a Bronze Medal Winner in the Poetry category in Reader Views Reviewer’s Choice Awards, 2022-2023. Started in 2005, Reader Views is one of the most prestigious and longest-running book award competitions on the indie publishing scene.

Reader Views uses a three-tier judging system of reviewers located throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe. Literary awards are given in a number of categories for children, youth, and adult fiction and non-fiction literary works, and include regional and global winners.

Vega says, “I am thrilled to receive an award from Reader Views for my poetic memoir of 50 poems written over 50 years divided into life stages. Given the massive number of books that are published each year by indie authors, I am deeply humbled. The positive reviews and feedback I received after I released my memoir, Moments in Flight, in 2021, moved me to take a chance and share my most personal musings with the public.

I plan to share some of my work in the Women’s History Month program I’ll be giving at the Lewes Library on March 23rd and 30th titled Healing Through Writing: The Memoirs Of Joan Didion.”
