Well.. what can I say, I have yet to win a national award of any kind!

Perhaps those of us in this circumstance could come at it sideways, in the way John Updike did in one of his poems (which I'll have to paraphrase):
"Just yesterday I failed to win the National Critics' Prize."
It's no small thing to be overlooked by the judges at a prestigious competition, but I'd have to think a while to figure out how to put the right PR English on the shot.
